Hi helix, thanks for your response, and sorry for not answering sooner but
I've been on holidays and came back today.
I supposed there must be something weird about it as I couldn't find any
official source for this. I've finally been able to deploy that version but
it doesn't work as expected as when uploading a file (the same file all the
time), it sometimes crashes and sometimes it doesn't. There seems to be
some problem with the code, so we're discarding this idea.
At our work we're trying to deploy a little footbridge between Alfresco to
DSpace. Basically, we've been working long years with Alfresco and now we
want to migrate all our data to our DSpace 3.1 installation - So basically
what we need is a console application or tool that would take a zip with
the file and its metadata and index it in our DSpace database, as these are
long GBs of data, so we need something that would automatize the whole
process. The guys from one of our departments are able to extract the files
and their metadata from the Alfresco DB, so now there's just this left.
We've been trying to find something like this but that's the most solution
we've found up until now, so if you could give me some advice on how to do
that, I'd really appreciate this.
Thanks again
