Re: [Dspace-tech] encoding issue - again?
Elo! The Dark Lord from Redmont stroke again! Thanks so much Dorothea, that makes perfect sense. The best example of not a bug but a feature that I have seen so far!

[Dspace-tech] encoding issue - again?
Hi all,
I'm really fazed by this one. I may be staring in the face of the obvious, but
just need
another pair of eyes (or brains) to see what is going on here.
I'm upgrading from 1.2.1 to 1.5. Now at 1.4.
Re. UTF-8 compliancy: I did everything that seems to be required:
postgres DB says:

[Dspace-tech] How do I set the handle to local ?
Hi, another problem with the 1.2.1 - 1.4 upgrade: I am installing the upgrade on another server. I made a fresh environment with new versions of Tomcat (5.5) and Postgres (8.1) and copied the whole thing over: dspace directory, assetstores, database dump. It seems to work pretty well until now, except a few issues that I am slowly staring myself blind upon. The first one is in that previous mail .. the incorrect rendering of some characters in the titles, and the other one is this: I get an error upon clicking on a displayed entry. I *assume* that this is because it is not possible to port the handle over to another machine just like that, and want to at least get a fresh start by starting out with the handle set to the default 123456789/ . But when I change the handle setting in dspace.cnf to 123456789 - nothing changes. It keeps generating URL's like http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/1892/3409 and not http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/3409 after clicking one of those, dspace.log shows this: 2008-04-07 00:59:55,393 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ anonymous:session_id=CF40451CD0DCBD8596A6F02F0C189E22:ip_addr=64.180.221.18:view_i tem:handle=1892/3390 2008-04-07 00:59:55,430 WARN org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.InternalErrorServlet @ :session_id=CF40451CD0DCBD8596A6F02F0C189E22:internal_error:-- URL Was: htt p://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/1892/3390 -- Method: GET -- Parameters were: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.HandleServlet.displayItem(HandleServlet.java:286) at org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.HandleServlet.doDSGet(HandleServlet.java:164) at org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet.processRequest(DSpaceServlet.java:151) at org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet.doGet(DSpaceServlet.java:99) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:690) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:803) (etcetera) and DSpace displays: Internal System Error The system has experienced an internal error.

Do you know that? cheers maike On 9-Jan-08, at 6:23 AM, Richard Rodgers wrote: Hi Maike: A few explanations to help unravel the enigma: First, you should understand that there are two different licenses involved here, not a choice of one. The first - the deposit license - is (roughly) a licence that the depositor grants to the repository. It is not optional, and does not display to users in the item display. For many institutions, it is a legal requirement. It is a standard 'click-thru' license in the sense that the grantor can only accept or reject it (as you note). The license.default you mention contains this license text. The second - CC license - is (roughly) a license that an author grants to consumers of her work. It is entirely optional (as you note with the cc-enable property), and *does* prominently display to users in the item page. Here, the submitter *can* choose from a set of licenses that reflect the desire to control/share content. What is confusing is that they both appear in the submission work- flow (first CC, then deposit), and the the CC is a mini-workflow in itself consisting if steps in an Iframe. Many have lamented the 'brittle' Iframe, but it was the only programmatic access we had when it was first offered. Now there are 'web'service' interfaces to CC that should probably be adopted (volunteers welcome!). Hope this helps, Richard Quoting Maike Dulk [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi I noticed some really strange behaviour in our DSpace installation. It is the Creative Commons licensing. When the setting in dspace.cfg is set to true Creative Commons settings ## # are Creative Commons licenses used in submission? webui.submit.enable-cc = true the Creative Commons section of the submission process has TWO separate steps. The first one is the one that has the iFrame that displays the Creative Commons webpage in it, and there are two choices that the submitter can set before accepting the license. After that, there is another step that asks another time whether the submitter wants to accept the Creative Commons license. This page is much simpler and has no choices, only two buttons - either I Grant the License or I Do Not Grant the License . The strange thing is that the first stage points to a version of the CC license that is NOT the one that we want to use, and that I have entered in the default.license config file. We want to use the Canadian 2.5 license, but it displays - AND attaches - the generic 3.0 CC license. That second stage does point to the Canadian 2.5 version license - but it is apparently discarded. The strangeness becomes more apparent when I do this: Creative Commons settings ## # are Creative Commons licenses used in submission? webui.submit.enable-cc = false In that case, there is no longer the first step (the iFrame one) - but the second step (the one with the url to the Canadian version and the I Grant the License or I Do Not Grant the License buttons) STILL comes up. But submissions do not have the CC license attached .. which does make some sense, since it is disabled. So I'd really like to know: - what makes this second step appear even though the CC is disabled in dspace.cfg? - How can I turn it off? - where can I make the first CC license point to the right CC license version (Canadian 2.5) ? It is not in the default.license

If this works, document it for the benefit of others. Thanks, Richard Quoting Maike Dulk [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Richard, gosh, that is indeed entirely new, not only to me but also to the librarians who have used DSpace for a longer time now as well. This is indeed confusing. So thank you very much for clarifying this! The only thing that I would like to know is how I can change the target of that iFrame, which is now the 3.0 generic license, to the CC license that we want to use, i.e. the Canadian 2.5 version .. and I cannot find any setting / file where that is set. Do you know that? cheers maike On 9-Jan-08, at 6:23 AM, Richard Rodgers wrote: Hi Maike: A few explanations to help unravel the enigma: First, you should understand that there are two different licenses involved here, not a choice of one. The first - the deposit license - is (roughly) a licence that the depositor grants to the repository. It is not optional, and does not display to users in the item display. For many institutions, it is a legal requirement. It is a standard 'click-thru' license in the sense that the grantor can only accept or reject it (as you note). The license.default you mention contains this license text. The second - CC license - is (roughly) a license that an author grants to consumers of her work. It is entirely optional (as you note with the cc-enable property), and *does* prominently display to users in the item page. Here, the submitter *can* choose from a set of licenses that reflect the desire to control/share content. What is confusing is that they both appear in the submission work- flow (first CC, then deposit), and the the CC is a mini-workflow in itself consisting if steps in an Iframe. Many have lamented the 'brittle' Iframe, but it was the only programmatic access we had when it was first offered. Now there are 'web'service' interfaces to CC that should probably be adopted (volunteers welcome!). Hope this helps, Richard Quoting Maike Dulk [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi I noticed some really strange behaviour in our DSpace installation. It is the Creative Commons licensing. When the setting in dspace.cfg is set to true Creative Commons settings ## # are Creative Commons licenses used in submission? webui.submit.enable-cc = true the Creative Commons section of the submission process has TWO separate steps. The first one is the one that has the iFrame that displays the Creative Commons webpage in it, and there are two choices that the submitter can set before accepting the license. After that, there is another step that asks another time whether the submitter wants to accept the Creative Commons license. This page is much simpler and has no choices, only two buttons - either I Grant the License or I Do Not Grant the License . The strange thing is that the first stage points to a version of the CC license that is NOT the one that we want to use, and that I have entered in the default.license config file. We want to use the Canadian 2.5 license, but it displays - AND attaches - the generic 3.0 CC license. That second stage does point to the Canadian 2.5 version license - but it is apparently discarded. The strangeness becomes more apparent when I do this: Creative Commons settings ## # are Creative Commons licenses used in submission? webui.submit.enable-cc = false In that case, there is no longer the first step (the iFrame one) - but the second step (the one with the url to the Canadian version and the I Grant the License or I Do Not Grant the License buttons) STILL comes up. But submissions do not have the CC license attached .. which does make some sense, since it is disabled. So I'd really like to know: - what makes this second step appear even though the CC is disabled in dspace.cfg? - How can I turn it off? - where can I make the first CC license point to the right CC license version (Canadian 2.5) ? It is not in the default.license .. since that is set to the Canadian one. - if we could get the second step to work with the right CC version that would be even better, since it is much simpler than that brittle iFrame mechanism My gosh, this is *complex*. thanks in advance, maike -- Maike Dulk - Programmer / Analyst McPherson Library, University of Victoria (t) 250-886-5709

Hi I've been looking into this for a some now and it does not become any clearer. It's this. When you submit an item, there are these Initial Questions (initial-questions.jsp). There seem to be three of them. I was wondering how it is determined whether they are displayed or not?

Incidentally, when we choose a different collection all three questions do show up. i cannot find any place in Dspace where this behaviour is set ... i.e. like in a config file of sorts.

Re: [Dspace-tech] 'node id' in controlled vocabulary .xml file ?
This is really weird. I took Christophe's version of the xls file, because that does make absolute sense: the original search for A::B(::C etcetera) did not yield any results, but now I get *too many* results. For instance, searching on 'Ethnology' gives me one result that does not have Ethnology as subject (there aren't any Ethnology theses in our DSpace as yet) but that does cite the word 'Ethnology' in its references list. In other words, the Subject Search now behaves as a Full Text search ... Maike On 9-May-07, at 2:14 AM, Dupriez Christophe wrote: Hi Mike and Andres, (please forward this message to the Tech list as I am not able to post from here) At search time, the XSLT producing the displayed tree generates a search term by concatenating all generic of the choosen subject (and adding a right troncature I think). Currently, In a hierarchy like A-B-C, choosing B generates a search on A::B. For MeSH, this was not suiting my need, so I made a little modification to search on the choosen subject only: I attach this modified XSLT. Subject searching will have to be improved on two points: * selecting a subject should also select its specifics * XSLT is very slow for big vocabularies like MeSH: vocabularies should be loaded once in the background and redrawn using JavaScript.

When creating that .xml file I was looking at the supplied Scandinavian examples - and from that (because in these two examples they are so different !), concluded that the 'node id' was not actually *doing* something: it looks merely as some sort of enumeration and I assumed I was free to use whatever code we use at our institute i.e. use it as a mnemonic. But I discovered that these controlled vocabularies are also used in the Subject Search. Unfortunately, it does not seem to work there: when I do an advanced search on a subject and get a certain result, clicking the same (or indeed any) box in the Subject Search form does not retrieve any results. My gut feeling here is that this 'node id' is thus a bit more than just an enumeration. But I cannot find anywhere (documents, internet) what it *should* contain ...
