Hi,

another problem with the 1.2.1 - 1.4 upgrade:

I am installing the upgrade on another server. I made a fresh environment with 
new
versions of Tomcat (5.5) and Postgres (8.1) and copied the whole thing over: 
dspace
directory, assetstores, database dump.

It seems to work pretty well until now, except a few issues that I am slowly 
staring
myself blind upon. The first one is  in that previous mail .. the incorrect 
rendering of
some characters in the titles, and the other one is this:


I get an error upon clicking on a displayed entry. I *assume* that this is 
because it is
not possible to port the handle over to another machine just like that, and 
want to at
least get a fresh start by starting out with the handle set to the default 
123456789/ .

But when I change the handle setting in dspace.cnf to 123456789 - nothing 
changes. It
keeps generating URL's like

http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/1892/3409

and not

http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/3409

after clicking one of those, dspace.log shows this:

and DSpace displays:

Internal System Error

The system has experienced an internal error. Please try to do what you were 
doing
again, and if the problem persists, please contact us so we can fix the problem.

any hint as to what might be causing this persistent memory of the old handle 
prefix ..
and how to wipe that?

(or other suggestions ... maybe I am all wrong in thinking it is caused by the 
fact that
I cannot use the same handle prefix on another server?)

TIA
