Hi Carlos, It's 'ant update_configs' to update a DSpace configuration. But, be forewarned that if this finds existing files it will *not* overwrite the existing configuration -- rather it will place a new version side-by-side so that you can compare them and decide what needs updating.
So, when you run 'ant update_configs', for any configs that need updating you'll see a '[config-file-name].new' file appear (e.g. you'll see a 'dspace.cfg.new' appear next to your existing 'dspace.cfg'). You'll need to check these *.new files to see if you want the updates made. By default we do not overwrite your existing configs as we don't want to accidentally lose any customizations you may have made. You can type 'ant help' to get an explanation of the various 'ant' commands available. - Tim On 6/23/2010 11:21 PM, Carlos S wrote: > Could someone please help on this? > http://www.dspace.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch05.html#N119D4 > > Is it update_configs or init_configs to update dspace configuration? > > -- > CS. > > > > On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 1:26 AM, Carlos S<neu...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I need some help regarding DSpace configuration update after changing >> '[dspace-source]/dspace/config/dspace.cfg' file.
