Hello All,

I just wanted to provide a follow up on this problem we were facing.  It turns 
out the culprit was the new PDF cover page feature.  The cover page also 
created some other bugs; title pages not matching the contents of the PDF, file 
not found errors, etc. Our best guess was because it kept writing to the same 
temp file and race conditions and deadlocks were happening. Your mileage may 
vary of course but as soon as we deactivated it viewing submissions working no 
problem.

Thanks,
Tim

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Viewing bitstreams in submissions only works for admin 
users

Hello All,

We recently moved to DSpace 5 and we are noticing some odd behavior with 
submissions.  It seems like only locally created Admin accounts can view 
bitstreams of submissions regardless of what permissions non-admin accounts 
have.  For example:


-          A submission comes in to a collection.  That collection has 
'Accept/Reject Edit Metadata' set to 'Group A'

-          'Group A' has two members in it:

o   The on the box admin created account (done via /bin/dspace user add) that 
is the uber admin essentially of the site

o   A second account that was automatically generated from an LDAP login, it 
has no further admin rights

-          If the second accounts 'accepts' the task in that collection and 
then it can view/edit accept/reject as appropriate but when you click on the 
PDF submission directly the system just seems to hang, no PDF is presented

-          The admin account  can view/edit accept/reject but when you click on 
the PDF it loads as expected.

Any ideas what might be the cause?  (If it helps we started with a 1.8 box 
before doing the upgrade, everything else seems to work as expected)

Thanks,
Tim
