Hi Robin, you need a valid email configuration. At various points registration, ingest etc. DSpace will send emails.
Check these settings in dspace.cfg: ##### Email settings ###### # SMTP mail server mail.server=YourMailServer # SMTP mail server authentication username and password (if required) # mail.server.username = myusername # mail.server.password = mypassword # SMTP mail server alternate port (defaults to 25) # mail.server.port = 25 # E-Mail-Adresse Eldorado, die fuer alles ausser OAI benutzt wird mail.general = valid email address ... You can use the email server of the Fernuniversität Hagen providing your central user account, which any of the FU members (students/staff) got. Seems as if for smtp they use the port 465, the instructions can be found at your site: http://www.fernuni-hagen.de/zmi/service/infrastruktur/internetdienste/email/mailstore.shtml As for the permissions, check step 5 of the installations: 5. Create the directory for the DSpace installation (i.e. [dspace]). As root (or a user with appropriate permissions), run: mkdir [dspace] chown dspace [dspace] (Assuming the dspace UNIX username.) It is assumed that your servlet container runs as your dspace user. Claudia Jürgen Robin Wang schrieb: > Hallo Claudia, > > I need your help again.
