Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Moving AS to another server?

You should check the logs/archivesspace.out log file when you start server to see if it starts up without error. Error message from startup may more clearly point to the problem — error message from failed GET is already another step removed from the original problem. You might also look

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Questions about user accounts & permissions

I agree: the best thing in to change password and remove permissions. Although, I think it would be safe to delete a user who was not an editor/creator of any resources. The last time I tested it, deleting the user unlinked the agent records that would identify who made edits or changes. ( And

I usually agree with the notion that you shouldn’t try modifying resources directly in MySQL unless you know what you’re doing. That’s because, when you’re dealing with linked resources, you need to define some complicated views using multiple JOINs in MySQL to follow those linkages so that

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Resource Template Issue

I believe there is an issue with the three states of the option ( true | false | nil ) using a two state indicator to change and display the setting. Initially the settings are nil. If you have ever turned them on and then off again, the setting will be false. Nil and false display the same in

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Does the API endpoint for PDFs work?

Try exporting the EAD and validating. There are still some cases where it exports malformed XML in some cases where these is mixed content in a note. The staff PDF export, first exports EAD which then goes to the as-ead-pdf.xsl stylesheet and then to the FOP processor. Feeding badly formed XML

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Test server / production server ArchivesSpace question.

The mysqldump is sufficient to restore ArchivesSpace state. It will rebuild the solr indexes. That will take a bit longer, but I prefer to do a complete clean reindex when cloning production to test. ( There are a number of glitches where the first bit of advice is usually to trigger a

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Component Unique Identifiers

If I understand what you want correctly: Copy public/app/views/shared/_idbadge.html.erb into plugins/local/public/views/shared/ ( assuming local plugins are enabled ) and add a line to display result.identifier, for example: $ diff -U 6 public/app/views/shared/_idbadge.html.erb

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Finding Aid pdf's are blank post AS software update

It’s working for me in v2.3.2, but I believe it was also working in 2.3.1 as well. However, PDF generation in the staff webapp is dependent on the resource producing valid EAD that gets piped to XSLT-FO stylesheet, so if you are having problems, it’s a good idea to export EAD first and try to

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Configuring barcode digits?

The generate_accession_identifiers plugin is an example of how to load javascript conditionally for a particular controller and action. For your case, you probably want to catch the top_containers controller for new and edit actions.

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] customizing PDF output for PUI

You are correct: The PDF generation from the staff and the public interfaces are different and use two completely different toolchains. Staff: Resource -> EAD -> xsl -> fop -> PDF Public: Resource -> HTML + CSS -> iText -> PDF For public code look at:

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Rails help for font-awesome classes ?

I expect that this has something to do with how stylesheet assets are compiled in Rails, but can anyone explain it to me ? Running in development mode, testing changes to digital object views with IIIF plugin, I noticed I was not seeing the font-awesome icon for the 'fa-file-image-o’ class
