Hi Keith,

Do you see any kind of error message when you run the import command? That will help in debugging.

Without more information, there are a couple of things you can check. First, make sure your test import directory is setup exactly as described here: http://dspace.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch08.html#N1584C . This includes the formatting of the metadata file. Second, make sure all the directories in [dspace]/assetstore are owned by the correct user. For more information, see http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Fix_Common_Item_Import_Errors

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Import generating blank mapfile and nothing showing up in web interface

I'm trying to perform a batch import on a test folder for a collection in a new DSpace installation.

I entered the following command (Windows server btw):

E:\DSpace\bin>dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport --a --e (my email address) --c 123456789/2 --s E:\IMPORT_TEST\test m- E:\IMPORT_TEST\test\mapfile.txt

I then ran the IndexBrowse and ItemCounter commands and stop/restart Tomcat.

The mapfile generated by DSpace is blank and nothing shows up when I try to browse the collection. I get the message: There are no entries in the index for Collection "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX".

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
