Hello Susan,
I'll try to answer some of your questions:

Hi,
I am working on our upgrade from DSpace 1.4.2 --> 1.5.0 and have a
couple of questions.
1. I have a copy of the DSpace 1.5.0 System
documentation, entitled "DSpace Manual Software Version 1.5 May 2008",
however it references "install-configs" which I understand does not
exist anymore in DSpace 1.5.0. Can any of the developers (or anyone
else) tell me if this is the most recent version of the DSpace 1.5
System Documentation or was there a subsequent update? If there is a
more recent version, I would appreciate it if anyone could either email
me a copy, or let me know where I can get one.
This may be a residual, yes "install-configs no longer is maintained.
It is wiser to maintain your configuration within
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace/config directly
2. I am a bit confused about the new 1.5 file
structures. In 1.4.2, our <dspace> directory was /export/home/dspace
and our <dspace-source> directory was /export/home/dspace-1.4.2-source.
In the 1.5 configuration, at our installation, is our new <dspace> going
to reside at export/home/dspace or
/export/home/dspace-1.5.1-src-release/dspace?
Yes, your <dspace> directory will still be /export/home/dspace and your
<dspace-source> build directory will now be export/home/dspace or
/export/home/dspace-1.5.1-src-release/dspace. However...
3. When I (re-)deploy, am I still going to
deploy from the .war file located at
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-webapp/t
arget/dspace-jspui-webapp-1.5.0.war or am I going to deploy from
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/webapps or
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/webapps/jspui??
No, the build process in 1.5.x has two stages, first a compilation and
assembly stage in Maven, and second, an installation stage in Ant.
The Maven build is run in /export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace
and will build your distribution with its customizations in
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace/target/...
In that build directory you will see something like
target/dspace-1.5.1-build.dir/
bin/
config/
lib/
search/
webapps/
jspui/
xmlui/
build.xml
I don't end up with a jspui/ or xmlui/ directory under
target/dspace-1.5.0-build.dir/ ......I only get a webapps directory and
the only thing in WEB-INF is messages.properties. I do, however find
the .class files under:
/dspace-1.5.0-source-dir/dspace-api/target/classes/org/dspace...........
..
/dspace-1.5.0-source-dir/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-api and
/dspace-jspui-webapp
/dspace-1.5.0-source-dir/dspace-lni/dspace-lni-client and
dspace-lni-core and dspace/lni-webapp
And so on......
What am I doing wrong?? The instructions you gave me varied somewhat
from the instructions in this document:
http://dspace.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/dspace/trunk/dspace/docs/update
.html#142_15
Help! :-)

You then navigate to this directory to start the second stage of the
build process by executing Ant, things will begin to look familiar at
this point because you will be running either "ant init_configs update"
or "ant fresh_install".
The ant build will then install the distribution you created into
/export/home/dspace
and you will find all your compiled webapps as directories in
/export/home/dspace/webapps
Don't try to deploy the "dspace-xmlui-webapp.war" or
"dspace-jspui-webap.war" archives to a web server, they do not include a
"lib" directory with the required dependencies or the appropriate
customizations you would now be doing under
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace/modules/xmlui or
/export/home/dspace-1.5.0-src-release/dspace/modules/jspui
Hope this is helpful,
Mark
I'm confused!! :-
