Re: [Dspace-tech] Internal System Error -
Hi Jewel, I am brand new to Dspace and today was able to successfully get a working install up and running. I am not sure which of the following events caused my Internal System Error but this is what I did: I was navigating through the site and was able to log with the admin account I created and recieved an error that I was not able to submit a collection. I then made the mistake of trying to rename the jspui folder in the weapps directly under tomcat and restarted the service. After restarting tomcat I then recieved the error. I have not configured anything yet regarding the mail server. I have looked in several log files but have not had any success finding out what's wrong. I tested my database connection and it's successful. I haven't changed anything in my dspace.cfg file of server.xml file under tomcat after it broke. If you ever see the DSpace 'Internal System Error' page, view the HTML source for the page, and very often it includes the error description (Java stack trace) just under the following tags: h1Internal System Error/h1 If you send the stack trace to us, it should have enough information in to help us diagnose the problem. In a small number of cases it will say that a stack trace is unavailable. In this case you'll need to look in the log files. The log file to look at is: - [dspace]/log/dspace.log Go to the bottom of the file and there should be a stack trace (assuming you've not used DSpace since the error occurred). Again, if you can send the stack trace to this list, then we can see what is going on.

[Dspace-tech] Week 6: Documentation
Greetings, DSpace community, My apologies for last week's discussion hiatus; I still had several showstopper bugs in Manakin themes and an uncomfortably close go-live date. The showstoppers are fixed (with many thanks to the community), and my headspace is just that much clearer. This week's topic is documentation, something the survey asked about previously. When you face a DSpace difficulty, where is the first place you turn? The second? Third? When all else fails, where do you go? On a scale of 1 to 5, where 1 is never find anything useful and 5 is always solves my problem, how would you rate the resources you just listed? What would a 5 resource look like and contain? Finally, what would you be willing and able to contribute to DSpace documentation? I will facilitate a chat discussion of these questions this Wednesday 1 October at 11 am ET (10 am CT, 4 pm GMT) in the #dspace IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.

Re: [Dspace-tech] FW: Java heap space error when trying to update aCollection
Very interesting. I just changed our web server JVM options from: -Xms128m -Xmx256m To: -Xms128m -Xmx512m and it corrected the heap space error. I'm worried though, because we are getting ready to load thousands more documents into DSpace and I'm wondering at what point we will start getting this error again. I agree with François that it appears DSpace is cycling through every record in the Collection doing something (I'm not sure what since I was just updating the Collection description) and because there are 44,938 records in this Collection and the Java heap space was filled up.

[Dspace-tech] Need help: Stackable authentication and XMLUI
Hi all, I have a custom authentication method that works in DSpace 1.5.1 JSPUI but does not work in the XMLUI. Essentially this is a custom method that sends a user to a CAS login page and back for further validation of the CAS ticket. The root issue seems to be that I am losing essential parameters in the HTTP request, and that is where my casticket is supposed to be. That is, at my institution, the CAS server tags the CAS ticket string onto the end of the URL that CAS is going to send the browser back to. So, when this works in JSPUI, I go to the CAS login server, and when it comes back to DSpace, it will always look something like: .../dspace/mydspace?casticket=ST-205536...(some long string) That 'casticket' parameter is essential for everything that happens next in my method in the stack. Without it, I can't check to see where I am in the process, and I don't have a ticket ID to validate against the CAS server. In the XMLUI, I am losing that casticket parameter. The browser goes off to the CAS login server, and then comes back to DSpace/XMLUI and goes down through the stack methods again. Problem is, on this second time around, I don't have that casticket parameter in the URL, even though the CAS server is sticking it onto the end of the return URL. It seems as though something at a lower level is replacing the URL or doing some redirect I can't see. I have stuck debug statements into my method, and a request for the casticket parameter always comes up empty: final String casticket = request.getParameter(casticket); log.info(LogManager.getHeader(context, loginPageURL, casticket is: + casticket)); (From the log file:) ...loginPageURL:casticket is: null Any ideas as to why I lose that parameter in the request in the XMLUI? Again, this works in the JSPUI. - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech

Re: [Dspace-tech] FW: Java heap space error when trying to update aCollection
Sue, I'm not denying that there is an efficiency problem / bug in DSpace to be bombing out on a minor Collection change just because of the number of Items. But 256 / 512Mb really is virtually nothing these days. I can easily exceed that editing the DSpace source in an IDE. I'll regularly see my web browser running higher than that after I've been using it for a few hours. Admittedly, I'm running 24(?) DSpace instances in my Tomcat server - but it's on an 8Gb machine, running a 64-bit JVM, currently with a max heap of 4Gb. And these servers - with multi-cores and using commodity RAM - are amongst the cheapest you can buy these days. Thornton, Susan M. (LARC-B702)[NCI INFORMATION SYSTEMS] wrote: Very interesting.
