Lewatle, It's unclear to me which OAI interface you are trying to use? There are two of them in DSpace:
(1) There is the OAI-PMH interface. This allows other sites or services to harvest metadata *from* DSpace. This interface is pre-built and pre-configured in DSpace. All you need to do is make sure Tomcat loads the [dspace]/webapps/oai/ web interface. More info in these two areas of the docs: * http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch12.html#docbook-application.html-oai * http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch12.html#N174FE (2) There is the new OAI-ORE based Collection Harvesting. This allows DSpace to harvest content from another external OAI-PMH or OAI-ORE interface. This is enabled by creating a Collection which harvests from another location (after creating a Collection, visit the "Content Source" tab, and choose the "This collection harvests its contents from an external source"). More info in these two areas of the docs: * http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch05.html#N14BE2 * http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch07.html#N15846 Please let us know what information is unclear in the documentation, and we'll try to help answer your questions. - Tim On 9/8/2010 1:45 AM, Lewatle Phaladi wrote: > Sands, this URL http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-289 for me is > better than dspace.cfg as in dspace.cfg there is no place where they > explicitly tells you which directive to comment and uncomment, thank you > for the input I really appreciate. > > *From:* Sands Alden Fish [mailto:[email protected]] > *Sent:* 07 September 2010 05:36 PM > *To:* Lewatle Phaladi > *Cc:* [email protected] > *Subject:* Re: [Dspace-tech] OAI Interface > > Lewatle, is the DSpace Documentation not sufficient enough to inform the > configuration of this gateway? > > (In any case, I believe most of what you need to do is in > ${dspace.dir}/config/dspace.cfg.) > > > -- > sands fish > Software Engineer > MIT Libraries > Technology Research & Development > [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > E25-131 > > On Sep 6, 2010, at 7:44 AM, Lewatle Phaladi wrote: > > > > Hi > > Anyone who has setup oai on dspace can tell me how to do it, or > documents you have followed! > > Regards, > > Lewatle > > *From:* Lewatle Phaladi > *Sent:* 06 September 2010 08:44 AM > *To:* '[email protected] > <mailto:'[email protected]>' > *Subject:* OAI Interface > > Hi All > > I am aiming to setup oai interface and use it on our Dspace > installation, can someone sent me reference link that she/he is > recommending , I am also doing some searches online regarding OAI . > > Regards, > > Lewatle > > This communication is intended for the addressee only.
