I've heard nothing back on this one. I'm still having the problem and
it is
just about to drive me insane. I've carefully rebuilt and restarted
everything,
the database, dspace, the server... and run index-init, but nothing
seems to
help. As soon as I put in any data in one of the new browse fields, I
get
a bunch of stacktraces. I *must* be missing something.
As far as I can tell from the system doc, all I should have to do is add
the
webui.browse.index.[n] line to dspace.cfg, run index-init and it should
just
work. Am I wrong? (I've also tried rebuilding dspace, restarting
tomcat
and the database afterwards, but no change.)
My next option is to rebuild from the release version and hope that
works.
It would be unfortunate however, as I really needed the embargo
functionality, and that has to be applied as a patch to the source code.
Any ideas or suggestions welcome.

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Browse index on new DC field
Hi all,
I've installed 1.5.1 (using the source release) on a Ubuntu 8 system
and using XML/Manakin. I want to be able to browse using a new
metadata field I have added to the DC schema. I have added the
parameter
in dspace.cfg as follows:
webui.browse.index.5 =
consignmentnumber:metadata:dc.description.consignmentnumber:text
As long as there's no actual data in the "consignmentnumber" field in
any
of the items, selecting "Browse by Consignment No." seems to work. At
least a page is delivered, looking like what you'd expect, but with no
items
matching. As soon as I put some data into this field in an item, a page
stating
An error has occured
java.lang.NullPointerException
is delivered instead, complete with Cocoon and Java stacktraces, which
don't mean much to me.
I had this feature running on a test system which I put together with
the
release version of 1.5.1. It's possible I missed something when I
brought
the mods across. I tend to think, though, that the config is correct as
I
can search by consignmentnumber, and that browsing seems to work at
least as long as there's no data in the field.
Perhaps there's a patch somewhere?
Cheers,
Lyn
