[Dspace-tech] DSpace becomes unresponsive, and I'm out of ideas
We're having continuing performance problems with our DSpace server. We're running version 1.6.2 on RHEL 4, so, yeah, everything is old. But service has been reliable, mostly, until recently. The symptom is that DSpace will become unresponsive at the browser. Checking the server, we'll typically find that the java process is running at 170% cpu, so my guess is a runaway process, which explains the slow/no response. But why? Checking the logs, both dspace.log and catalina.out, gives no real clue. dspace.log is typically full of broken pipe errors, but these are,I guess, another symptom. We also get broken pipe errors through the day, even when DSpace is running normally. Possibly unrelated, we also periodically find that dspace.log has filled up all available disk space -- more than 100GB! With a file that large, it's difficult to scroll through, but I've not found any obvious answers there. So I'm out of ideas here as to where to even look for cause. (And yes, I've already had the upgrade idea. Not currently an option I'm afraid.) Can anyone help with suggestions?

[Dspace-tech] Error starting tomcat: Error occurred during initialization of VM
Hi. We're suddenly seeing this error when we restart tomcat: Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap I'm mystified, because we have made no server changes recently. Apache is running, postgresql is running, but tomcat is borked. Can anyone suggest a cause for this, or a place to start looking? We're running DSpace 1.4.2 on RHEL.

[Dspace-tech] Bitstreams invisible after import
Hi. Having a problem here with importing a record with a number of mp3 bitstreams. (A music thesis.) Running DSpace 1.4.2, record is http://hdl.handle.net/2440/49474 I set up a directory tree as per docs to import the record -- done that many times with no problems with simple records. This record had mutiple mp3 files from 4 separate CDs. So I created a contents file listing all the mp3 files, and used \tbundle:CD1 after each file name to keep the tracks together as four separate bundles. >From the documentation, that seemed to be what I needed. The import worked, to the extent that the files all loaded, and can be seen in item edit. But they are not visible in the public views. So, can anyone tell me what I should do to make them visible?

[Dspace-tech] Using SQL to add a metadata field to records?
Hi. We have a need to add a new metadata field (a unique identifier) to many records in our DSpace (1.4.2) database. Basically, we will have a list of DOI-identifier pairs, and for each item matching the DOI, we'll want to add a new identifier field with the identifier value. Can anyone offer me a clue as to how I do this? I.e. what SQL code do I need to create a new metadata field for an item? I can see that I need to INSERT into METADATAVALUE, but .. where do I get METADATA_VALUE_ID?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Tomcat error: Timeout waiting for idle object : UPDATE
UPDATE:things improved dramatically for us after I did a clean recompile of DSpace, making sure to use the right version of Java. ;-) We still had masses of errors showing in the tomcat log, as before, but tomcat at least did not fall over every five minutes. In fact, it remained up all day. (But mysteriously crashed sometime last night.) This morning, I restarted with the setting db.statementpool = false in dspace.cfg, and this has resulted in the Timeout waiting for idle object messages disappearing entirely through all of this morning. We had a a reappearance of this error starting at 12:30pm and eventually tomcat required a restart an hour later. So ... problem not really solved, but DSpace is now as stable as it was on 1.3.2, so I guess we call that progress.:-) Steve Steve Thomas wrote: I found a thread on dspace-tech about this (typically unresolved) with the suggestion to tweak the db.maxconnections and db.maxidle parameters.

[Dspace-tech] Need help urgently! Indexing fails following 1.4.2 upgrade
Hi. I need help! We upgraded from 1.3.2 to 1.4.2 last night. Everything worked well, and DSpace runs fine. I ran index-all after the upgrade and that worked too, no problem. But now, a subsequent index-all fails to build the search index (browse works fine). The search index build runs for a while, then stops without any message, but leaves an incomplete index file. (It's usually around 64MB, but now produces only 12MB.) Since there's no message, I don't know what to try next. Running on RHEL. Any advice appreciated.

[Dspace-tech] Too many open files error
We're having a lot of trouble currently with tomcat crashing with a Too many open files error. This is happening roughly twice a day -- I am restarting tomcat every morning, and usually get a call around lunch time that it has crashed and need to restart again. Restart is quick and fixes the problem, temporarily, but naturally I wish it didn't happen at all. I did some digging and found a thread from this list from last year, which petered out without apparent resolution, but where Mark Diggory suggested tinkering with the fd.files-max value in sysctl.conf. [ http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=E1Grhzs-Nj-JN%40ma il.sourceforge.net ] Well, I tried that, but it made no difference. So, back to Google, where I found (searching for files-nr) that you can list all the open file handles used by a process, using # ls -l /proc/PID/fd/ where PID is the process id. So using this with the pid for the DSpace tomcat, I found lots of items like this: lr-x-- 1 uals uals 64 Dec 20 16:30 237 - /data/dspace/search/_vzb.cfs (deleted) This is a symlink to one of the lucene index overflow files, which [in my limited understanding] are dynamically created and deleted as the index grows. These deleted items increase in number over time, and I imagine DSpace eventually hits the ulimit for open files (1024) and dies. So I think the problem may be due to the lucene indexing not releasing file descriptors when they are deleted. Certainly, watching the list over an hour I've seen the number of deleted lines rise steadily. I guess we're noticing this as a problem here because of the very large amount of editing work we're engaged in currently. Other sites with a more sedate use of DSpace might never run into it. Well, that's how it looks to me right now. Nothing I can do about it, but maybe someone expert in the lucene side of DSpace could look into it?

[Dspace-tech] UTF-8 encoding in search mystery
Can anyone help with this? Ive found that, since we moved from Solaris to Linux (RHEL), we are unable to search using words with non-ascii characters in them. E. g. the name Mühlhäusler in simple search returns no results. The URL produced by the search is http://digital.library.adelaide.edu.au/dspace/simple-search?query=M%C3%83%C2 %BChlh%C3%83%C2%A4usler If I replace the query string in the URL with Mühlhäusler (in the location bar): http://digital.library.adelaide.edu.au/dspace/simple-search?query=Mühlhäusle r it works, suggesting that the URL encoding is causing the failure. I note that on our old Solaris box, the name is encoded as M%C3%BChlh%C3%A4usler which is different from the encoding on the production Linux box. Beyond that Im stumped. Can anyone offer advice on how to fix this? It is rather embarrassing not being able to search non-english words.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Non-ASCII Unicode and searching in DSpace
Im still investigating this problem and I cant imagine that others have not also run into this, although it is possible they have simply not noticed. In our Author browse list we have things like this sequence: Hill, Robert Stephen Hill, Roderick Jeffrey Hills, Brian Andrew Hills, F Hill, S. G. Hill, S. J. Hills, K. Hill, S. M. Hill, T. -- you can see that the sequence seems to be ignoring punctuation AND spaces, which is not good. The unix sort utility also produces the same sequence. I suspect this is something to do with the Unix locale settings, specifically the environment variable LC_COLLATE. On our RedHat system, this is LC_COLLATE=en_AU.UTF-8 On the old Solaris box (where the collation sequence is correct) we have LC_COLLATE=en_AU.ISO8859-1 However, on RedHat the collation from sort is only correct if I set LC_COLLATE=C So the problem appears to be two-fold: how do we get the browse sort order to be correct, including non-ASCII characters, AND how do we search words with non-ASCII characters? Any and all ideas welcomed.

We recently moved from a Solaris box to an HP running RHEL. Now I find that search and browse no longer work with words containing non-ASCII Unicode characters, e.g. the name Mühlhäusler. This doesnt show up in the browse list, and searches fail to find it. Was there something we missed in the installation, or is this an artefact of using RHEL? Were still on DSpace 1.3.2 Display is fine, just the searching is a problem.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Dspace on Sun SPARC
Mika, we have run DSpace here for a year now on Solaris 8 (SPARC E450) with no significant issues. Ironically, we're about to migrate to an HP running RHEL, but that was for performance reasons related to the hardware, and University purchasing policy. Between you and me, I've had more issues with RedHat than I had with Solaris. So if you have a SPARC box, I'd suggest running Solaris instead of Linux. Just about every piece of software I needed was available as a package, so installation was quite easy. Cheers!

[Dspace-tech] Help needed with DBD::Pg
Hi. I'm wondering if anyone has installed the DBD::Pg perl module on RedHat? (RHEL) I'm having severe problems trying to get it to build. I have PostgreSQL 8.2.4 installed from a package. The DBD::Pg install requires pg_config from the development kit, so I've unpacked that and ran gmake to build pg_config. But I still cannot get the make for DBD::Pg to run - it crashes immediately with this: $ make gcc -c -I/home/uals/kit/postgresql-8.2.4/src/include -I/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBI -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DDEBUGGING -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/home/uals/kit/postgresql-8.2.4/src/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/gdbm -DPGLIBVERSION=80204 -DPGDEFPORT=5432 -O2 -g -pipe -m64 -DPERL_EXTMALLOC_DEF -Dmalloc=Perl_malloc -Dfree=Perl_mfree -Drealloc=Perl_realloc -Dcalloc=Perl_calloc -DVERSION=\1.49\ -DXS_VERSION=\1.49\ -fPIC -I/usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE Pg.c In file included from Pg.xs:14: Pg.h:21:22: libpq-fe.h: No such file or directory In file included from Pg.h:47, from Pg.xs:14: dbdimp.h:36: error: syntax error before PGconn dbdimp.h:36: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union etc. for about another hundred error lines. (This was after I tinkered with the DBD::Pg Makefile to adjust the erroneous paths provided by pg_config! Which made no difference.) I am afraid that at this point I am stumped. Any clues as to what to try next will be warmly welcomed.

[Dspace-tech] Handle server stopped working
Hi.
Our handle server has inexplicably stopped working -- we now get handle not
found messages from hdl.handle.net.
Since I haven't done anything to the config (I promise!) I'm at a loss as to
what to do next. Can anyone offer me some clues?
Also, we're using the default port 2461 for server and hdl_tcp_config
stanzas. handle.net suggested most sites use 8000, so can we change these
ports to 8000 without conflicting with the hdl_http_config stanza?
Our config.dct is as follows:
{
hdl_http_config = {
bind_address = 129.127.78.3
num_threads = 15
bind_port = 8000
backlog = 5
log_accesses = no
}
server_type = server
hdl_udp_config = {
bind_address = 129.127.78.3
num_threads = 15
bind_port = 2641
log_accesses = no
}
hdl_tcp_config = {
bind_address = 129.127.78.3
num_threads = 15
bind_port = 2641
backlog = 5
log_accesses = no
}
no_udp_resolution = n
interfaces = (
hdl_udp
hdl_tcp
hdl_http
)
server_config = {
server_admins = (
300:0.NA/2440
)
replication_admins = (
300:0.NA/2440
)
max_session_time = 8640
this_server_id = 1
max_auth_time = 6
backup_admins = (
300:0.NA/2440
)
case_sensitive = no
storage_type = CUSTOM
storage_class = org.dspace.handle.HandlePlugin
}
}
Thanks!

[Dspace-tech] OS for DSpace
Hi. we've been funded for new hardware for our Digital Library (yay!) and I'm now being asked what Operating system is required. The suggestion is Redhat EL 4. I'm sure that will be fine, but (being a Solaris person) I'd like reassurance, so . Can anyone please confirm that RHEL4 is OK for DSpace?
