Hi Alan
I installed a new instance of DSpace-CRIS, and the REST interface does work.
Unfortunately, I'm still a bit stuck as the version on
https://github.com/4Science/DSpace is 5.10, but the version I have
installed on my production and dev servers is 5.8. I would simply upgrade,
but
Thanks, Terry, I did comment out the security-constraint section in:
/dspacecris-dut/webapps/rest/WEB-INF/web.xml

If you are running DSpace 5+, the REST api requires ssh by default.
You can comment that requirement out in the web.xml file for the rest
webapp.

Dear Sean,
I'm not sure which package provides the SpringServlet class, but I have the
following in my REST application directory on DSpace 5.8:
dspace/webapps/rest/WEB-INF/lib/spring-aop-3.1.1.RELEASE.jar
dspace/webapps/rest/WEB-INF/lib/spring-asm-3.1.1.RELEASE.jar
The /var/log/tomcat7/localhost.2018-11.14.log has some interesting info:
...
INFO: Marking servlet DSpace REST API as unavailable
Nov 14, 2018 4:08:51 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext
loadOnStartup
SEVERE: Servlet [DSpace REST API] in web application [/rest] threw load()
exception
Also, the permissions are the same as for all the other webapps, including
sword2 and jspui, which do work.

Dear Sean,
It's "good" that the /rest path doesn't work either. So something is wrong
with the loading of this application. Restart Tomcat and watch the logs as
it loads each application (xmlui, solr, rest, etc). On Ubuntu that would be
the general Tomcat Catalina logs[0] and localhost container
Dear Sean,
Does the root path for the rest API work, ie /rest? Also, some basic sanity
checking: make sure the path you gave as the context docBase exists:
$ ls -l /dspacecris-dut/webapps/rest
Cheers,

I'm trying to enable the REST interface, but am just getting a 404:
curl -s -H "Accept: application/xml" http://localhost:8080/rest/communities
Apache Tomcat/7.0.68 (Ubuntu) - Error
