Hi. I don't think that the patch in DS-257 has been included with any version of DSpace yet. You'd have to apply the patch manually and re-deploy in order to use that feature.
You can still import metadata for your "cld" schema, though, by following the instructions in the "What if I need to import metadata in a schema other than Dublin Core?" question in the "Batch Importing FAQ" section of this document: www.tdl.org/files/DSpaceBatchImportFormat.pdf Basically, you'll create a file similar to the typical dublin_core.xml file, but it will be named "metadata_cld.xml" instead, and the <dublin_core> element will appear as <dublin_core schema="cld">. You may still need to create a dublin_core.xml file with the metadata for the "dc" schema - I'm unclear on whether it's always required. If you try this method and still have problems, you can send files for a sample item to me, along with the output from the stack trace of your exception, and I'll try it over here. --keith ----- Original Message ----- From: "RENTON Scott" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 5, 2010 7:21:38 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [Dspace-tech] Non-DC Import t Hi folks, I'm having a shot at loading the generic metadata file (as opposed to dublin_core.xml) through import. First question- can this be done on 1.5.2, or must I upgrade before it becomes an option? (If it's possible, I've followed patch DS-257's instructions: File (metadata.xml): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <metadata> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "custodialHistory" qualifier = "none" > the whole wide world</metadatavalue> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "contentsDateRange" qualifier = "none" > 1985-2002</metadatavalue> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "hasAssociation" qualifier = "none" > Page 220</metadatavalue> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "hasPublication" qualifier = "none" > UCS</metadatavalue> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "accessControl" qualifier = "none" > us</metadatavalue> <metadatavalue schema = "cld" element = "objectName" qualifier = "none" > books</metadatavalue> </metadata> Command: /u01/isdocs/dspace/bin/dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport -a -e [email protected] -c 123456789/18 -s /u01/isdocs/dspace/carmichaelwatson/cw_dspace_test_non-dc -m mapfile.txt -l --resume Output: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /u01/isdocs/dspace/carmichaelwatson/cw_dspace_test_non-dc/0002789d/dublin_core.xml (No such file or directory) (if I change the name back to dublin_core.xml, I get a NullPointerException).) If I need to upgrade, I will do so; if I'm getting the syntax wrong though, please let me know!!
