Hi Amy, I can verify this is correct behavior in DSpace 7 because the backend (REST API) needs to apply access restrictions in a consistent manner. Simply put, in DSpace 7, you must have READ permissions in order to "see" any object (including metadata about that object) from the REST API (and

Hi, First off, I'll admit, I'm not an OpenAIRE v4 expert. But, I think the info you might be missing is that DSpace does *not* store metadata in the exact same fields documented by OpenAIRE. One example is that, in DSpace, the title is stored in "dc.title", even if those OpenAIRE docs say

[dspace-tech] Re: DSpace 7.4 - no suggestions when adding a new metadata field to an existing item

Hi, I'd recommend debugging this using our Troubleshooting guide. While it's useful to look at the backend logs, it's also *necessary* to look at the UI's behavior in your browser's dev tools. Sometimes an error will only appear in your browser and not make it to the backend logs (this can

Re: [dspace-tech] ingesting HTML archives

Hi John, It appears that this is not yet supported in DSpace 7. I'm not seeing a way to get this to work either, because the DSpace 7 Bitstream URLs have changed from the structure in DSpace 6. I've created a bug ticket for this: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/8635 I'm not sure

Re: [dspace-tech] Dynamic control of submission-process steps?

Hi David, As of DSpace 7.3 (or later) this is possible. DSpace 7 has the same "type-based fields" () functionality that was available in DSpace 6. See the documentation at

[dspace-tech] Re: DSpace 7.4 Backend Whitelabel errors

Hi Jacob, I'd recommend checking the Tomcat logs as well. If it's a 404, that implies that "http://localhost:8080/server; is an invalid URL in Tomcat. Maybe something went wrong in deploying the "server" webapp to Tomcat, which would explain why it's not loading. Here's our Troubleshooting

[dspace-tech] Re: Customizing "Browse by Author" DSPACE 7.x

Hi, Unfortunately, I don't think that's possible in DSpace at this time. Those Author fields in the "Browsing by Author" page are simple metadata values (as Browse by Author is simply letting you browse all Items by "dc.contributor.author" and/or "dc.creator" field values). So, those values

Re: [dspace-tech] DSpace 7.x Maximum size of abstract field?

Hi, All metadata field values in DSpace are stored in a database column (see "text_value" column of "metadatavalue" table). That database column uses the PostgreSQL "TEXT" data type, which is documented as having a 1GB limit: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39966079/3750035 Tim

Re: [dspace-tech] Batch import not insert all data in Mapfile

Hi, We don't have enough information to provide help. What version of DSpace are you using? What metadata is missing after the import? How are you performing the import (are you running it via the commandline or via the UI, and what parameters are you adding to the command)? Also, could

Re: [dspace-tech] DSPACE 7.4 webui.browse.link example

Hi Vincente, The "webui.browse.link.*" settings in your dspace.cfg/local.cfg do not yet work in DSpace 7.x. They were an older DSpace 6.x feature, which we are still working to migrate forward. Essentially, it was a way to hyperlink metadata fields (displayed on the Item page or similar) to

Re: [dspace-tech] Import and Export menus disappeared from DSpace 7.4 menu?

Hi Paige, Those import/export options still exist in DSpace 7.4. However, they are obviously only available when you login as an Administrator. If you are not seeing those options, I'm guessing maybe an error is occurring which is blocking them? Try to follow our Troubleshooting guide to see

[dspace-tech] Re: Dspace7 works with ip but not with fqdn

Hi, The problem may be that you forgot to change the "dspace.ui.url" setting (on the backend) to include the domain name. When changing the URLs (from IP to hostname), you have to ensure you update the URL settings in the backend's "local.cfg" (both "dspace.server.url" and "dspace.ui.url")

[dspace-tech] Re: dspace mirage 2

If I can recall correctly, DSpace 6.3 has encountered some major build issues with Mirage 2 as the build process was dependent on very old software. See this ticket / PR: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/8292 Those issues were fixed in DSpace 6.4 which was released this past July.
