Re: [fcrepo-user] How to reset the PID gen

[Janna Wemekamp]

Hi Vincent, Did you restart Fedora after updating the PIDGEN table? I've successfully changed PIDGEN.highestID in my SQL DB (PostgreSQL) any number of times but had to restart Fedora to have it take effect. HTH!

Subject: Re: [fcrepo-user] How to reset the PID gen   Vincent,   Not sure about resetting the counter. Correcting in the database may be a problem as you found. But alternative procedure below may be used in some situations.   (1) Deposit the new object and it will be assigned unwanted PID.   (2) Export this object:   ./fedora-export.sh localhost:8080 fedoraAdmin passwd PID:111 info:fedora/fedora-system:FOXML-1.1 archive /home/user/my_export http   (3) Correct PID in the content of the export file (and optionally its filename) to the desired PID. Ensure there is no object with desired PID in Fedora.   (4) The trick is that ingest will assign PID from the exported file rather than from the counter:   ./fedora-ingest.sh file /home/user/my_export/PID_222.xml 'info:fedora/fedora-system:FOXML-1.1' localhost:8080 fedoraAdmin passwd http     Please let me know if this worked.     Serhiy Polyakov University of North Texas     On Wed, Jan 23, 2013 at 1:30 PM, Nguyen, Vincent (CDC/OD/OADS) (CTR) <v...@cdc.gov> wrote: How do I reset or change the value in pidgen?  For example, if I had an object with the PID: changeme:123 and then purged it, and later wanted to ingest another object with THAT same PID of changeme:123?   I tried to manually update the Mysql table and set the value for highestID in pidgen to a lower value (ex: changeme:122) but when I ingested the new object, the new PID skipped over the one I wanted and was: changeme:124   Vincent Vu Nguyen   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, _javascript_ and much more.
