Jason, We definitely need such cases reported so we can assure the next round of documentation has a fix in it, thanks.
Graham makes a good point about the handles jar and versioning. Could you point me to the latest version of the jar you are using and I'll publish it into the maven repository, then one only has to alter the dependencyManagement section of the dspace parent pom to retrieve the newer version. Once I have it uploaded, I'll show you how to change that in the pom.xml -Mark On Oct 1, 2008, at 11:07 AM, Jason Fowler wrote: > Mark, > > Ok. I understand now. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
