Hello Claudia, Thank you so much for your clear response. I have added the below settings to the dspace.cfg file because they were missing. However the import is no more giving an error but the imported items are not being shown. I am getting the below output when importing one item using the below command:
[root@Lclone ~]# /data/bin/dspace import -a -e dsp...@aub.edu.lb -c 10938/10266 -s /backup/staging/1 -m /backup/staging/mapfile Destination collections: Owning Collection: Faculty Publications Adding items from directory: /backup/staging/1 Generating mapfile: /backup/staging/mapfile Started: 1438596129729 Ended: 1438596130152 Elapsed time: 0 secs (423 msecs) But when I refresh the items in the collection no new items were added. Do you think it is a handle issue (maybe using an already used handle)? Or do I need to re-index? The mapfile is empty which means no import is occurring. What should I do? Thanks!
