Re: [Dspace-tech] How to give authorization to users?
Hi Durga, This is Durga. I have installed DSpace in my system . When we register as a new user, and when we go thru all the registration process, DSpace allows us to login with the registered ID. When i login with my ID, MYDspace Home page is being displayed with options like Start a new Subbmission, View Accepted Submission etc. when i select the option Start a new submission , You are not authorized to submit to any collections is being displayed. As an administrator, is there any thing that i shoul do to allow the users to strat their submission? please help to solve this problem. In order for a user to be allowed to submit to a collection, they must have their account added to the group of users who can submit to that collection. You can edit the list of people allowed to submit into a collection by logging-in as an administrator, go to the collection you wish to give them submitters rights on, and press the Edit Submitters button. You can either give submission rights to an individual, or to a group of people. For example if all your staff in one faculty might need to submit to several collections, you can first create a group of those users (Administration - Groups - Create New Group) and then rather than adding the individual users to the collection, just add the group. I hope that helps, Stuart _ Gwasanaethau Gwybodaeth Information Services Prifysgol Aberystwyth Aberystwyth University E-bost / E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffon / Tel: (01970) 622860 _ - 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

[Dspace-tech] News of main page are stored in only 1 language
Hi, I just found a surprising bug while configuring the two News of the main page. We have a DSpace 1.5 (jspui) installation with English and German GUI. There are two possibilities to configure the News: 1. the news-side*.html and news-top*.html in the config directory, and 2. the administration area of the GUI. Now my case: I edited the German text from the GUI. Then I switched to the English GUI to set up the translation. The fields were already filled with the German texts (!). And after changing them, the German texts in the German GUI are gone. Looking in the config directory I saw that only the files news-side.html and news-top.html were affected and news-side_de.html and news-top_de.html were still old (= the original versions from the language pack). This means: Even when I edit the News from the German GUI, the English files are written (and displayed)! Does anyone have an idea how to debug this?

I changed the line that gives acces to postgres url and ports on dspace.cfg (it was like db.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/dspace and changed it for db.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/newdbname) but it didn't work In what way did it not work? Precisely. What messages did you receive? Did you create a database 'newdbname' in PostgreSQL on the test server? Does the Pg user named by db.user exist in Pg on the test server? Does db.password correctly specify that user's Pg password? Is that user permitted access to the database 'newdbname' from IP host 127.0.0.1 or ::1? You can name the database any way you like, but a database by that name must be created before 'ant fresh_install' can define the tables in it. You can name the database user as you please, but that user must exist in Pg and must be permitted (in pg_hba) access via IP to the database you named in the DSpace config. You can even run the DBMS on any other machine you wish, but on that machine you must configure Pg to permit the configured user, using the configured password, access to the configured database from the host on which that DSpace instance runs. Where can I find the correct variable to change the DB name? or it's impossible to do that? db.uri completely specifies the type, location, and name of the database. In the first example you give: o the type is PostgreSQL; o the location is 'localhost' (127.0.0.1 or ::1) and the port is 5432; o the database is named 'dspace'. -- Mark H.

[Dspace-tech] Chat summary: 20 August 2008
We had about twenty people (and, unfortunately, two or three trolls) in this morning's chat! That's a much larger turnout than I expected, and I find it very encouraging. After a round of introductions, we talked about the following things: BULK METADATA EDITING Use cases included name and subject authority control, adding a new piece of metadata to all the items in a collection at once. One manager wanted to allow student assistants to bulk-edit metadata. Suggestion: export/import of a collection's metadata only, for batch editing PERMISSIONS One manager said that permissions were opaquely-named and difficult to understand, making it hard to determine exactly what permissions a given eperson has. Desiderata included letting epeople other than administrators create collections, automatically changing edit permissions on existing items in a collection when a new collection administrator is added, and letting collection administrators edit/change bitstreams (use case: ETDs with last-minute corrections). Suggestion: instead of recording permissions on each individual item, check against collection administrator list for edit rights on the item. DOCUMENTATION Several people mentioned using the wiki, especially the how-to pages. It was noted that the how-to pages are becoming disorganized and unwieldy, which will only get worse as more are added. Suggestions: organize the how-to pages by version of DSpace to which they apply; organize the how-to pages by task (Install Customize Administer Troubleshoot Internationalize etc). The mailing lists are helpful, but good information becomes the needle in the haystack -- hard to search for, especially with the unfriendly SourceForge interface. Several managers archive useful messages for later use. Suggestions: Build a way to auto-forward useful messages from dspace-tech to the wiki, for editing by one or more community members. Reuse material from an upcoming course on administering DSpace. Develop a new user guide. Reorganize the DSpace feature list by common perceived needs rather than by feature. Dealing with problems in the underlying technology stack rather than DSpace itself can be difficult, as can finding live help. Suggestions: advertize the DSpace IRC room, arrange office hours there. OTHER DESIDERATA - embargoes (two managers reported using an embargo hack; one is delaying an upgrade to 1.5 because it does not have one) - multilingual issues: community/collection descriptions in more than one language, metadata input in more than one language LOGISTICS The IRC chatroom (irc.freenode.net, #dspace) is an underused resource! Developers and admins watch the room who are happy to help with DSpace issues. To broaden awareness of this helpful space, chats will be held there going forward.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Chat summary: 20 August 2008
The timing of this meeting was a bit off in my time zone, 0700 am (and is why I usefully prefer to use email for communication within the community as it is asynchronous). Is there a transparent log of the chat conversation, I've logged into Meebo, but only found a portion of the history there... Its pleasant to see a round table get together and talk about such issues, I hope it will fuel an activity to get a better needs assessment out of the IR Manager user group. I would highly recommend formalizing the history of the event by summarizing this in the WIKI (as you point out a need to do when such events occur in chats and email lists). I also recommend someone should act as a moderator/secretary right now to aggregate your further list discussion into a more formal state in the WIKI in as real a time as possible. It would be best to have the notes and chat log that you've presented here into a section of the WIKI focused wholly on the interests of the IR Managers group that is forming here. This could even simply be links to the pertinent threads of interest in the S.F. and dspace-general email lists.

[Dspace-tech] How to make better quality previews and thumbnails
I'm using DSpace 1.4, and don't have the option to upgrade at the moment, so hopefully someone can help me with the older version. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to make decent-looking previews and thumbnails. This particular collection I'm working on is a bunch of scans of black-and-white photographs, in TIFF format. I've got the jai-imageio libraries installed and added TIFF to the JPEGFilter and BrandedPreviewJPEGFilter inputFormats. The filter-media script is creating the thumbnails and previews, but they just look like snow. I'm not rally a java person, so after a little Googling I tried specifying different combinations of interpolation, dithering, and rendering values in JPEGFilter.java, for example: ... import java.awt.RenderingHints; ... // now render the image into the thumbnail buffer Graphics2D g2d = thumbnail.createGraphics(); g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BICUBIC); g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_RENDER_QUALITY); g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_DITHERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_DITHER_DISABLE); g2d.drawImage(buf, 0, 0, (int) xsize, (int) ysize, null); ... But the resulting previews and thumbnails always look like snow. I just don't know where or how to specify a different resampling method. Examples: This is actually a JPG scaled down in Gimp, to get the idea of the original 44MB TIFF: http://rocky.uta.edu/grimland/images/orig.jpg This is the preview JPG crated by MediaFilterManager: http://rocky.uta.edu/grimland/images/preview.jpg - 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

[Dspace-tech] Manakin and dspace.log (statistics)
Dear DSpace Community, we are migrating our Institutional Repository to DSpace. We have done some tests with DSpace 1.4.2 and Manakin. You can take a look at: http://tesla.saber.ula.ve:8080/dspace and http://tesla.saber.ula.ve:8080/manakin For migrating we have the requirement that we must have item viewing and bitstream downloading statistics. Therefore we successfuly installed the statistics addon from the Uni do Minho. The problem is that item views and bitstream downloads in the manakin interface do not generate statistics!. I was checking and it seems that Manakin does not write an INFO entry in the dspace.log file as the jspui does. Is the patch 2025998 related to this?. I have seen also some Email traffic in which it is said that this issue is a feature for DSpace 1.5.1. Is that right? Is there any way to use Manakin and a stable version of DSpace (i.e. 1.5) and be able to generate viewing and downloading statistics? Thank you very much for your help. By the way, we have generated some documentation on our migration experience at http://proyectos.saber.ula.ve/wikiud/index.php/Aspectos_t% C3%A9cnicos_de_la_migraci%C3%B3n (it is in Spanish).
