I think that doc is out of date, this might be more update: https://github.com/archivesspace/tech-docs/blob/master/customization/locales.md From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org on behalf of Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) Sent:

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Also, the EADChecker web service mentioned in the same article is still around – it’s not exhaustive, but it should find _most_ potential errors that will cause ingest to fail, and output them in a slightly easier to manage format than the ASpace job reports.

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] need help customizing text in ArchivesSpace

One thing to check: the spaces and indentation in .yml files are significant, and you can’t mix tabs(*) with spaces, so you should make sure that you haven’t accidentally inserted a tab when editing. You can edit the file in place for testing, but for normal production, I advise copying the

Hi Janet, Did you restart ArchivesSpace after updating the locales file? This is required for changes to take effect. Adam On Fri, Nov 22, 2019 at 1:50 PM Janet Hack wrote: > Greetings, > > we are new to ArchivesSpace and are trying to change the wording on our > public-facing pages

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] need help customizing text in ArchivesSpace

Greetings, we are new to ArchivesSpace and are trying to change the wording on our public-facing pages https://archivesspace.mcdaniel.edu/. We want to change the header title from the standard "ArchivesSpace Public Interface" and we would like to put in a custom welcome message. I have tried

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

At the end of our article "The Devil's Shoehorn" https://journal.code4lib.org/articles/12239 there is an appendix of problems. Many of these are valid EAD that don't import. It is listed by EAD element name. Things may have changed but this at least is a starting-point checklist. Kate From:

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Marks diagnosis is correct. I would just add that additional information as to what is missing is in those error messages, although they are admittedly difficult to interpret: == veteran_city_guard.xml

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Jennifer, One more potential gotcha if you go the EAD-import route: if you have multiple container types associated with a single component (which were not present in this particular file), like "Box 1", "Folder 1-4", then you'll want to make sure that those container elements have @id and

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Jennifer, Thanks, this helps a lot! It looks like there are couple of required elements missing from this file for ArchivesSpace to be able to import it. Though your file is valid EAD, ArchivesSpace requires all resources to have things like a title, date, extent, as well as a distinct

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

I have attached one of the files I used earlier this week. The job completed, but when I tried it this morning - both locally and on test.archivesspace.org - it failed. This, from Tuesday, can't be too promising: [cid:image004.jpg@01D5A11F.D3E9F140] These are today's errors:

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Jennifer, If you can share a sample EAD file that isn't uploading, someone might be able to pinpoint the issue that way if the error is in fact due to the file itself. Additionally, have you tried uploading the file to http://test.archivesspace.org/staff/? If you can upload it successfully

Have a look for errors in your archivesspace.out log file, there could be some clues there. From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org on behalf of Sharp, Jennifer Sent: Friday, November 22, 2019 8:40 AM To: Archivesspace Users Group

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] importing EAD files

Thanks for replying, Miloche and Erhan. Unfortunately, I still haven't had any luck. These are some old files, so I'm thinking there may be some glitches with the EAD. I'm going to try entering a short one manually and then comparing the code. Thanks again, Jennifer --- Jennifer Sharp, MSI
