Hi, Trevor:
I don’t think that we’ve seen this particular issue, but we did have another
issue when upgrading from 1.5.x to 2.x which I’ll mention here in case it’s of

Just a quick note to say that this is something that we’ve discussed at Yale,

Hi Lisa,
I’ve no clue what could be causing this, but others have reported the issue as

on the problem. So far, I haven’t seen this happen in Yale’s TEST PUI instance

In the PUI, yes, you can do this.
In the Staff Interface, you can also do this, but the approach isn’t as
obvious. But you can return every record that’s part of a specific resource by
searching for its URI fragment. For example, in http://test.archivesspace.org,
