Hi Gavin, I'm running the latest and greatest code (pre-7.1), so my MANIFEST.MF might have slightly different versions than yours, but here's what mine says:
Manifest-Version: 1.0 Created-By: Maven Archiver 3.4.0 Build-Jdk-Spec: 11 Specification-Title: DSpace Server Webapp:: Local Customizations Specification-Version: 7.1 Specification-Vendor: LYRASIS Implementation-Title: DSpace Server Webapp:: Local Customizations Implementation-Version: 7.1-SNAPSHOT Implementation-Vendor: LYRASIS Yours should be similar, but the "*-Version" tags might say 7.0 Tim ________________________________ From: dspace-tech@googlegroups.com <dspace-tech@googlegroups.com> on behalf of Gavin Spomer <gavin.spo...@cwu.edu> Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2021 12:45 PM To: DSpace Technical Support <dspace-tech@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] After 7.0 Installation Server / Hal Browser Not Loading CSS Or Javascript Thanks! This is helpful despite still being stuck. Can you tell me what's in your server/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file in your working installation?

Just to verify, that "browser" directory is embedded in a JAR...it's not supposed to exist separately under "/server", so that's definitely not the issue here. I've double checked my own local copy, and it has no "browser" folder & everything works fine. The "browser" folder (and related css and js) is embedded as part of "spring-data-rest-hal-browser" dependency, which is the third-party tool we use to view our REST API. This dependency should be auto-installed in your WEB-INF/lib (as "spring-data-rest-hal-browser-3.2.6.RELEASE.jar"). It should be loaded by Tomcat where Tomcat will find the "browser" folder in that JAR. (If you really want to know how this all works, it's a bit of Java webapp magic implemented by the Spring project in this class which maps the JAR resources to the path "/browser": https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-rest/blob/3.2.x/spring-data-rest-hal-browser/src/main/java/org/springframework/data/rest/webmvc/halbrowser/HalBrowserConfiguration.java#L38-L41) As long as the ownership is correct in the Tomcat webapp, that should be enough. There's no special scripts in there or anything. The DSpace REST API is just a Java-based webapp. I'm a bit stumped right now, as this all "sounds correct" so far. Your dependencies look OK at a glance. You might double check from "mvn -v" that Maven is pointing at your Java 11 install...it should be, but sometimes it can get mixed up if you have more than one Java installed. It looks like that past email thread (from May) that you linked to was solved by a simple reinstall (they said they just did a "mvn clean" and reinstalled and it worked... see this last message: https://groups.google.com/g/dspace-community/c/-JKj_xrgLYM/m/VjAA0BnYBQAJ). I don't see any email messages since 7.0 was released (on Aug 2) that are similar...so, this is definitely an odd one. I'm hoping maybe someone else on this list will notice something that I might be overlooking...or maybe something will come to mind later on.

And thanks again for all your help. Addressing your last (private) message: - Nothing in the install failed. Just getting the REST API / Backend page to have the correct output, linking to css and js in the non-existent "browser" directory is what I'm working on fixing. After building with Maven it shows everything successful. Ditto for installing with Ant. - I have looked in all my tomcat logs: The catalina and localhost logs only had [INFO] level messages, no errors. The localhost_access_log has all the 404's. The manager and host-manage logs have nothing in them. - I believe I have all the correct dependencies / versions: FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE openjdk11-11.0.12 maven33-3.3.9 apache-ant-1.10.8 postgresql12-server-12.8 tomcat9-9.0.52 apache-solr-8.9.0 - My /usr/local/apache-tomcat-9.0/webapps/server directory and everything below are owned by "www" which is the tomcat user on my system. As for permissions, they look normal at a glance. Is there anything in this directory tree that needs executable permissions? - I have rebuilt and deployed via maven & ant a ton of times, but thanks for checking on that. And yes, I've been running "mvn clean" before running "mvn package" again.Thanks for the tips on doing "mvn clean package" and "ant update" (instead of "ant fresh_install" like I've been doing every time). - There has been someone else with this issue, but unfortunately no resolution, but I wouldn't expect you to remember this post<https://groups.google.com/g/dspace-community/c/-JKj_xrgLYM> from back in May. I'll keep plugging away and trying different things...

Are the errors you are seeing related to accessing the UI or the REST API in your browser? Can you verify that you are able to see the REST API in your browser similar to our demo site REST API at https://api7.dspace.org/server/ ? You could also test to verify that login works from your REST API (click login on that basic REST API page). I'd highly recommend taking a step back and verifying first that you can see & login via the REST API as a standalone webapp. If you are not seeing logs in [dspace]/logs/ for your REST API, check also the Tomcat logs where that is running. The "browser" errors you are referencing sound like they might be coming from the UI layer, in which case they have nothing to do with the backend "server" webapp (where the REST API is running). So, once the REST API is working for you, verify that the same public URL is in your UI's "environment.prod.ts" file in the "rest" section. Then try the UI again. (As a sidenote, your /usr/local/dspace/webapps/server/ sounds correct...most of the files there are compiled Java code in JAR files under WEB-INF/lib/. There are not many HTML files on the backend/REST API, as nearly all of that will live instead in the location where you installed the User Interface.) If you've tried all this before, then I think we'd need more info regarding your configuration, setup, etc. It's unclear to me exactly how you've configured your REST API's local.cfg and the UI's environment.prod.ts, and even whether you've set these both up with HTTPS or are trying to just get it running on localhost, etc. Good luck, Tim ________________________________ From: dspac...@googlegroups.com <dspac...@googlegroups.com> on behalf of Gavin Spomer <gavin....@cwu.edu> Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2021 12:26 PM To: DSpace Technical Support <dspac...@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] After 7.0 Installation Server / Hal Browser Not Loading CSS Or Javascript Thanks Tim. The links you provided above were the first things I checked. I always do everything I possibly can to resolve an issue before trying to get outside help. That includes the docs at the links you provided, reviewing the instructions (several times) and Google searching. I also searched AND browsed this list before submitting this post. The browser console just affirms what I already knew; there's a bunch of 404's for anything in the (non-existent) "browser" directory. My localhost_access_log.2021-09-22.txt log for tomcat9 indicates this too much. I didn't find any logs in /usr/local/dspace/log/. What other logs can I check? If my dspace installation directory is in /usr/local/dspace, shouldn't there be a "browser" directory tree in /usr/local/dspace/webapps/server/? The output of "ant fresh_install" indicated it installed 1009 files in /usr/local/dspace/webapps/. Is this correct or should there be more files? What could be some reasons that Ant isn't installing all the necessary files? This is all I see in /usr/local/dspace/webapps/server/: [2021-09-22_10-23-16.png] Thanks again for your help. - Gavin On Wednesday, September 22, 2021 at 7:44:20 AM UTC-7 Tim Donohue wrote: Hi Gavin, Could you look for errors on the backend or in your browser's dev tools? Those are the easiest ways to narrow down the problem. Here's a guide for finding those errors in either the front or backend: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove) I strongly suspect it's a configuration issue, and likely you'll find one of these common installation issues in either the backend logs or in your browser's dev tools: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Installing+DSpace#InstallingDSpace-CommonInstallationIssues That said, it's hard to say exactly what the problem is without first finding the error that is thrown. You also should verify that both you and the server running the frontend can access the REST API....if there's a proxy or firewall blocking access to the REST API that'd definitely be an issue. Good luck, and let us know what you find on this list.
