Hi DSpace folks: I'm trying to troubleshoot the harvesting process using DSpace 1.6.2 XMLUI. It generally works fine, but for one of our internal services I'm not having any luck. I've tried harvesting other sites running the same software [1] (though possibly a different version) and it *does* work. At this point I'm just trying to figure out why ours won't harvest.
I'm receiving the error message "* OAI server could not be reached.", which isn't terribly helpful. I'm unable to find anything relevant in either the dspace.log or catalina.log. Note that I am able to query the software via my web browser and retrieve valid (looking) XML. Sometimes this flakes out, though, so I'm thinking the problem is on that end. It looks to me like the actual harvesting in DSpace is done by the third-party OCLC OAIHarvester2. Unfortunately, when I changed my log4j root logger to DEBUG I still didn't get anything useful in the logs. Furthermore, the CLI harvesting tool hasn't been helpful in troubleshooting this either. The "ping" option doesn't do anything at all [2] and the one-time harvest feature doesn't seem to print anything out. The CLI tool always returns 0. Does anybody have suggestions for how to better troubleshoot this problem? Any insight would be appreciated. [1] Desire2learn's Learning Repository http://www.desire2learn.com/learningrepository/.
