Hi Pavan, I have been successfully followed the steps on the same site to migrate the EPrints 2.1 to Dspace. Here are the steps I documented. I tried it under dspace 1.4.2 and it works for code I checked out from dspace 1.5 trunk before dspace1.5 alpha released. Of course, you have to update the xslt file to fit your own repository structure. CLEAN DSPACE DATABASE
a.. run "ant clean_database" under dspace_home/truck/dspace/target/dspace-1.5-SNAPSHOT.dir/. This will remove DSpace database tables, destroying data (you may have different source path to run ant command) b.. and then, under the same directory, run "ant setup_database" c.. run "ant load_registries" EXPORT DATA FROM EPRINTS a.. export data from eprints - under eprints bin dir, run > ./export_xml eprints archive > data/archive.xml // for archive items. In dspace, they are installed items > ./export_xml eprints inbox > data/inbox.xml // for inbox items. In dspace, they are unfinished items > ./export_xml eprints deletion > data/deletion.xml // for deletion items. In dspace, they are withdrawn items > ./export_xml eprints buffer > data/buffer.xml // for items in submission buffer. In dspace, they are items in workflow process > ./export_xml eprints document > data/document.xml // for document download > ./export_xml eprints user > data/user.xml // for users. In dspace, they are epersons a.. move all data to eprints_to_dspace/xml_data on dspace server LOAD EPERSON (I developed a java code to upload Eprints users too. If you are interested, I can send you the code too) LOAD ITEMS a.. make sure all matadata registery for your repository are there in dspace. b.. parse eprints data to dspace format. Edit file /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/config.xml, set doXSLTransformation to True and run eprints_to_dspace.py (make sure directory eprints_data is clean) c.. seperate records with different document types (maybe special for our repository. We have different collections for different document types) d.. edit file /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/config.xml, set doCreateArchive to True and run eprints_to_dspace.py (make sure directory dspace_data is clean) e.. for each document types, run eprints_to_dspace to generate dspace simple archive(maybe special for our repository) f.. to import items from archive, run /usr/local/dspace/bin/dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport -e [EMAIL PROTECTED] -a -s /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/dspace_data -c <collection-handle> -m mapfile g.. to import items from inbox, run usr/local/dspace/bin/dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport -e [EMAIL PROTECTED] -a -W -s /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/dspace_data -c <collection-handle> -m mapfile h.. to import items from deletion buffer, run usr/local/dspace/bin/dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport -e [EMAIL PROTECTED] -D -s /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/dspace_data -c <collection-handle> -m mapfile i.. to import items from submission buffer, run usr/local/dspace/bin/dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport -e [EMAIL PROTECTED] -a -w -s /usr/local/src/eprints_to_dspace/dspace_data -c <collection-handle> -m mapfile I updated ItemImport.java too to map the eperson with the item, and added option -D and -W to upload the deleted items and incompleted items.
