I patched the 2 pom files as detailed in that patch and, after cleaning everything out and starting again, I was able to rebuild/redeploy DSpace v5.2 AND successfully access the JSPUI interface :-) I did not undo the changes I made to the pom files previously (to reference v3.1 of servlet-api and the new Artifact ID as discussed in http://sourceforge.net/p/dspace/mailman/message/33532346/) but simply added the changes outlined in the patch. Let me know if that was not correct! You say above that this patch should prevent servlet-api being pulled into the DSpace WARs, but I note that if I look for the servlet-api, it does still turn up (although not as much as previously!): # find /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release -name '*servlet-api*' -print /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace-oai/target/dspace-oai-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace-xmlui/target/dspace-xmlui-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/modules/swordv2/target/swordv2-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/modules/oai/target/oai-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/modules/xmlui/target/xmlui-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-installer/webapps/swordv2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-installer/webapps/oai/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-installer/webapps/xmlui/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-installer/lib/javax.servlet-api-3.1.0.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace/target/dspace-installer/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar /usr/src/dspace-5.2-src-release/dspace-swordv2/target/dspace-swordv2-5.2/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.4.jar So, it may be that this patch has only partially fixed the problem? (i.e. just enough for me to get into the JSPUI?) - I've not yet done anything beyond bring up the home page with the vanilla install, so perhaps I'm going to bump up against this issue again when/if I start using any of the webapps listed above that still seem to contain explicit references to servlet-api v2.4/2.5? If I should be concerned about the above, just let me know! But for now I've cleared the hurdle that was preventing me getting the basic install up and running - hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here on in, but if not, I'll certainly shout! :-) Thanks a million, that was very helpful indeed!
