Hi Shannon,

(I'm copying back in dspace-tech. We prefer asking all questions on that tech support mailing list, as it allows others to help answer questions and/or learn from the answers themselves)

Any existing records unfortunately will need manually updating, as the "dc.identifier.uri" field will contain a value starting with "http://hdl.handle.net/";. If you have a lot of these existing records, your easiest route towards doing these updates is to use the Batch Metadata Editing capabilities in DSpace:

https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Batch+Metadata+Editing

The Batch Metdata Editing tools let you export metadata records to a CSV file, which can be opened using Microsoft Excel (or similar spreadsheet tools). You can then find the column in that spreadsheet for "dc.identifier.uri", and *update* all values starting with "http://hdl.handle.net/"; so that they now begin with "[dspace.url]/handle/" (where [dspace.url] is your DSpace's URL). Make sure to retain the number-based identifiers at the end of those values (obviously).

Once you've updated the spreadsheet values, just upload the spreadsheet to update DSpace itself. Much more information on the process is in the documentation that I linked above.

Good luck,

Tim

Thanks Tim.  I did find that and changed it in the live dspace.cfg file.
... And did realize I was misunderstanding the handle subfolder in the URL path.

Is there an easy way to propagate the "new" URI to existing records? Or would the rebuild/redeploy take care of that?

For now I've just commented the URI out in:
dspace\webapps\xmlui\themes\Mirage2\xsl\aspect\artifactbrowser\item-view.xsl
Thanks,
Shannon

    Hi Shannon,

    While DSpace shows URLs that include the word "handle" by default,
    the actual handle server is actually not configured by default.

    It sounds like you may just be wanting the URI that is displayed
    on Item pages to no longer start with "http://hdl.handle.net/";
    <http://hdl.handle.net/>.  If that's the case you can easily tweak
    that in your "build.properties".

    It's the "handle.canonical.prefix" setting in that file:
    https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/build.properties#L148

    If you want it to simply be the URL of your Dspace, you can change
    this setting to be:

    handle.canonical.prefix = ${dspace.url}/handle/

    After changing that setting, you will need to rebuild & redeploy
    DSpace (which will cause the setting to be propagated to your
    "live" dspace.cfg file):

    cd [dspace-src]    (i.e. source directory)
    mvn clean package
    cd dspace/target/dspace-installer
    ant update

    Finally, restart Tomcat.

    - Tim

    Is it possible to disable handle all together?  Our Library is
    just wanting to have the DSpace internal URL displaying without
    the handle in the Article link and change the URI displayed to
    the internal DSpace link.

    Thanks,
    Shannon
