I just finished up learning about batch imports by trial and error and I 
believe you do have to include the dublin_core.xml file during batch imports 
for it to work.

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.

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!!

Cheers
Scott
