Hi George and others, I realise your question is from quite some time ago, but just in case someone might run into this problem in the future I figured it might save her or him some time to post the solution that I found.
I was upgrading from 1.2.1 to 1.5 and at 1.4 I noticed that I was having the same problem as you describe: "There are no files associated with this item." It may very well be that this already turned up at 1.3 - I did not really test the intermediate stages too well. It turned out that for some reason, in the old installation there was only one type of data in the DSpace bitstream storage: the so-called "ORIGINAL" files, as opposed to "TEXT" or "THUMBNAIL" I have not been able to find a reason, but a quick survey of the data in the dump file confirmed that. It may have been that because of that there was no need to distinguish between the three types mentioned above in the table column BUNDLE.NAME Anyway, after setting the NULL values on BUNDLE.NAME to "ORIGINAL" (in the database) it worked fine. UPDATE bundle SET name = 'ORIGINAL' where name is null; But mind you - don't follow this blindly. The fact that this was not filled in, or migrated, properly may entirely be a hack of the (extremely brittle) installation of that 1.2.1 version. There were more strange issues with it, in any case. But it might provide a clue. cheers ~maike On 30-Aug-07, at 7:44 AM, George Kozak wrote: Hi... On my test server, I upgraded from DSpace 1.3.2 to DSpace 1.4.2. I am having a strange problem. Everything is working fine EXCEPT that when I view an item, it says: "There are no files associated with this item." This even happens when I add a new item. Has anyone else run into a problem like this? *************************** George Kozak Coordinator Web Development and Management Digital Media Group 501 Olin Library Cornell University 607-255-8924 *************************** [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- Ms. Maike Dulk - Programmer / Analyst McPherson Library, University of Victoria (t) 250-886-5709 / (e) [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Harthon gerithach aeair vilui / I hope you will have kind seas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
