[Dspace-tech] Handle Server install error dspace 1.4.1
Hello, I have recently installed dspace 1.4.1 on Linux AS version 3 update 6 with Java 1.5.0, apache ant 1.7.0 and postgresql-8.2.3. I have also made and verified required entries in dspace.cfg file (handle prefix and handle server directory path). To setup the Handle Server using simple setup Writing simple Handle server configuration I run the following command: ./make-handle-config I then get the following error: Error setting up the server: java.lang.NullPointerException java.lang.NullPointerException at net.handle.server.SimpleSetup.responseToPrompt(SimpleSetup.java:930) at net.handle.server.SimpleSetup.getIPAddress(SimpleSetup.java:572) at net.handle.server.SimpleSetup.main(SimpleSetup.java:96) ./make-handle-config: line 90: /dspace/handle-server/config.dct: No such file or directory ./make-handle-config: line 99: /tmp/handleconfig6179: No such file or directory The dspace/handle-server folder is empty and the dspace handle server log has only this entry: Error reading configuration: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /dspace/handle-server/config.dct (No such file or directory) >From older installations I think the handle-server folder is then populated with numerous entries, one of which is the config.dct file so I do not think this is really an issue I may be wrong but I suspect that Java is not working as it should for some reason and creating the config.dct file Can anyone offer any input on the cause/solution to the error indicated above?

[Dspace-tech] Handle Server fails to connect on dspace 1.4.1
Hello all,
I am running dspace 1.4.1 on Linux Enterprise AS v3 update6
I originally had a problem setting up the handle server with the
provided script, having gotten around that (I ran command
/dspace/bin/dsrun net.handle.server.Main /dspace/handle-server instead
of /dspace/bin/make-handle-config) I am unable to resolve any handles. I
have updated my config.dct with the required entries (see contents
below). I noted that I had to create the storage_type and storage_class
entries as opposed to just filling in the appropriate vals after the "="
sign and wandered if that is a sign of a setup problem on my end... To
the best of my knowledge ports 2641 and 8000 are opened to the wider
internet. Is there something I have overlooked?
"num_threads" = "15"
"bind_port" = "2641"
"backlog" = "5"
"log_accesses" = "yes"
}
"log_save_config" = {
"log_save_weekday" = "N/A"

[Dspace-tech] Handle Server fails to connect on dspace 1.4.1
Hi
Hello,
I have confirmed that ports 2641 and 8000 had been opened.. Telnet is
off on my Linux system but I can connect to the system using ssh and a
program called putty. I'm assuming the ports are therefore not an issue.
Tried running the handle update prefix script also, even though the
prefix was already correct and we hadn't made any entries prior to
setting up handle server(I had edited the config file in advance with
our pre existing prefix from our test server).
Any more insight will be greatly appreciated
Thanks for your input
Nigel

Hi,
Can you telnet to that machine / ports - both from the machine itself,
from the wider network, and from the even wider internet?
Then you'll know if there is a firewall / port binding issue, which
would be the most obvious / easiest to resolve problem.
Next, check that you actually have handles with the correct prefix in
the database - if you've got old items prior to receiving a prefix, you
have to ensure that they are migrated to the prefix
(/dspace/bin/update-handle-prefix).

Re: [Dspace-tech] Handle Server fails to connect on dspace 1.4.1
Hello and Happy New Yr to you too Claudia :)
I edited dspace.cfg but could not get make-handle-config to run so I ran
command dspace/bin/dsrun net.handle.server.SimpleSetup /dspace/handle-server
which was listed in older instructions to create the handle server config..that
worked... then started server with command dspace/bin/dsrun
net.handle.server.Main /dspace/handle-server. I sent the new sitebndl to CNRI
and they updated our records. They are getting a "cannot connect error" but we
have verified the ports 2641 and 8000 are open so we are at somewhat of a
standstill on options..
Thanks for your response,
Nigel

Hi Nigel,
first a Happy New Year.
So you edited dspace.cfg to include the handle prefix and then ran
dspace]/bin/make-handle-config and started the handle server with
[dspace]/bin/start-handle-server.
Did you register the sitebndl.zip with

Re: [Dspace-tech] Handle Server fails to connect on dspace 1.4.1
Hello Yin, I have a system with an internal IP mapped to an external IP both of which CNRI are aware of(we had a test server that worked fine..). The prefix entry seams fine in config file and it doesn't look like there any hanging java threads.. The version of Java I used conflicted with a default java that came with our O/S originally but that was solved by making an entry in the Environmental Variables I am thinking about changing the java now... I have included below an entry I noticed in the handle-server error log when I start the handle-server. There is no notification of an error otherwise... I am wandering what "socket closed" is referring to.? Thanks again for any input Nigel "2008/01/04 02:52:47 GMT" 25 Started new run.

[Dspace-tech] Backup Failure
Hello all, I am running dspace 1.4.1 on linux enterprise Version 3 update 6 have just tried copying the data folder and assetstore folder form my test server to the production server to test a Backup procedure. I am now unable to start the postgres database. I Backed up the original production data and assetstore folders then deleted them and copied over the test server ones, I noted that I had to re assign the assetstore to the dspace user as the root user for some reason came up as the owner after the copy. I Also had to make the postgres user the owner of the data folder again. Now when I return to the original data and assetstore folders I get the same error... I get this error when trying to start postgres database: pg_ctl: another server may be running; trying to start server anyway pg_ctl: could not start server Examine the log output. Also I am unable to locate the postgres log file, this is my postgres start up command /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /dbdata/data -l logfile start Can anyone point me in the direction of the postgres logfile?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Backup Failure
To All, Turns out I had what seams to have been two major problems, 1) as Jeffrey pointed out I had a postmaster.pid file still present in the data folder which needed to be deleted so postgres could restart 2) I had to reset permissions on the folders to the correct owners (dspace for assetstore and postgres for data)but I didnt notice that when I reset permissions on data folder, ownership was also granted to the group and world as well which prevented postgres from starting also.. Hopefully this post will assist anyone who runs into a similar issue... Thanks again, Nigel -Original Message- From: Robin Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 5:31 AM To: Nigel Pegus Subject: RE: [Dspace-tech] Backup Failure Hi Nigel, Every Unix user has a uid, a number, as well as a name. When you copy files from one machine to another (with tar ?) it will try and assign the files to the user with the same uid on the new machine, the dspace user on the new machine may well have a different uid. My guess is that it couldn't find a user with the same uid so assigned the files to root. I am a wee bit surprised that you tried to copy over the postgres data folder. I think it would be better to run a backup and restore using postgres commands (pg_dump). Postgres logs go to std_out (or std_err ?) by default. You need to make a change to the postgres conf file if you want it to go somewhere permanent. Hope some of this helps.

[Dspace-tech] Unplanned user access
Hello all, I am running dspace 1.4.1 on linux v3 update 6 with Apache Tomcat 6.0.1 and Postgres 8.2-506. While experimenting with groups and restricting user access to various collections I noted that it is possible to log out the system then attempt to access an item in a collection which is not normally publicly accessible. The system will indicated that the user that created the item is logged in one instance and in another similar experiment a user who was made part of a group with the required access rights will then appear as logged on thus allowing the unprivileged user access to the item. Has anyone encountered this before?? Printed below is my dspace log of what transpires... it is not clear to me what the "anonymous session ID" is referring to as the system displays a privileged user as logged being logged in at the point when you select a normally inaccessible item. 2008-05-21 16:10:11,958 INFO org.dspace.core.ConfigurationManager @ DSpace logging installed using log4j.properties 2008-05-21 16:10:13,625 INFO org.dspace.core.ConfigurationManager @ DSpace logging installed using log4j.properties 2008-05-21 16:10:43,372 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.CommunityListServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_community_list: 2008-05-21 16:10:45,783 INFO org.dspace.content.MetadataField @ Loading MetadataField elements into cache. 2008-05-21 16:10:45,904 INFO org.dspace.content.MetadataSchema @ Loading schema cache for fast finds 2008-05-21 16:10:48,416 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_collection:collection_id=23 2008-05-21 16:12:09,321 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.BitstreamServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_bitstream:bitstream_id=156 2008-05-21 16:14:06,680 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_collection:collection_id=23 2008-05-21 16:14:12,111 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.CommunityListServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_community_list: 2008-05-21 16:15:00,807 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ anonymous:session_id=67BE8B1F32E86A078726E6D8BE8D13FD:ip_addr=192.168.25 4.3:view_collection:collection_id=23 Any input appreciated...

Not sure if you got a response to this as I've been off for a while so doing a very high speed trawl through a couple of weeks worth of various mailing lists . . . Anyway, this may or may not be related, but one thing that still catches me out occasionally is the caching of DSpace pages - we have an embargo feature implemented that only allows admins access to embargoed items. If I log on as Admin, access a restricted item's "Simple Metadata" page (from where I can open the item), log out, then revisit the item display page I find that is says that I'm still logged on (my email address shows in the top left even though I've logged out and the link to the item is still displayed) - however, this is just a cached version of the page, and if I attempt to open the item, I get (correctly) taken to our "You can't access this item but you can request it from the original depositor" page . . . Whenever I encounter something like this (appearing to be logged on when I don't think I am, or vice versa), I use Ctrl-refresh (hold down the Ctrl key whilst clicking the browser refresh) and that forces the page to completely reload (rather than using the cached version).

Re: [Dspace-tech] Unplanned user access
Hi Mike, Possibly I have been experimenting with users advancing to the point where they can click on the open button for a specific item but the system would then bar entry AFTER clicking the open button (had I gone further). I would have assumed that they had access to the item having gotten by stages where they would normally be presented with the login screen or authorization required prompt I will try to recreate the circumstances and verify what in fact has been happening.

Again, I don't *think* this can happen - as Christophe pointed out, it's not DSpace that is serving a cached version of the page, but the browser "reusing" a locally cached version - so a user will only see themselves logged on if they (or someone else) has previously logged on to the system, and then logged off again, in the same browser session . . . I've certainly not heard of anything like the scenarios you describe actually happening - the problems I hear about are usually the "other way around" - I've had numerous enquiries from our workflow staff relating to things like the "Edit" button not being visible on an item view page - these are always problems relating to a cached version of the item view page - they access an item page, then subsequently log on and go back to that page, but don't get access to the admin features (the give away is always the absence of the "Logged in as" message).

[Dspace-tech] cannot select e-person
Hello, I am unable to select e-persons on my dspace 1.4.1 servers. I have read short term solution suggestions and attempted them both - 1) ensuring java script entry for utils.js is present and I have not included any further references to java scripts 2) I edited the utils.js file and changed all window.document.forms[0] references to window.document.forms[1] this seamed to solve the problem but for a limited time only. The selection of e-persons problem appears to start once you edit the default-header.jsp. As such I have only been able to restore normal access to epersons by restoring all the edited Jsps or ensuring that I edit window.document.forms[0] as indicated above (but this option does not solve the problem permanently, as e-persons are no longer accessible after a while despite no changes being made to the server).

I have restored my Main Server to its unedited state, however this is the current situation: 1) If you attempt to select an eperson for editing in Internet Explorer an error message is displayed in lower left hand corner of browser. These are the details of that error message It indicates the following : Line 56 Char 5 Error.

We had to take it back out because I learned the eperson form items have to be the "highest" level form items on the page locationally in order to work. Don't ask me why because I don't know.

[Dspace-tech] cannot select e-person
Hello all, I have since upgraded my server to 1.4.2 which I noticed had the required changes done to the utils.js file (forms[0] entries essentially removed..) I also had to recreate my header.jsp file the e-persons are now selectable. Thanks. -Original Message- From: Glenn Bunton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2008 4:44 PM To: Nigel Pegus Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] cannot select e-person Hi Nigel, I'm not sure if this will help but we have somewhat similar problems when we first started using dspace. I learned that it had to do with the location of form items on that page. We had customized the page and put some code at the top for a search box. We had to take it back out because I learned the eperson form items have to be the "highest" level form items on the page locationally in order to work. Don't ask me why because I don't know. If you did some customization and added some other form items on your eperson jsp pages that might be a place to look. Good luck. == Mr. Glenn Bunton Head of Systems Development Old Dominion University Libraries Norfolk, Virginia 23529 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (757) 683-5952 === "Nigel Pegus" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] uwi.edu> To Sent by: dspace-tech-bounc cc [EMAIL PROTECTED] rge.net Subject [Dspace-tech] cannot select e-person 06/04/2008 04:34 PM Hello, I am unable to select e-persons on my dspace 1.4.1 servers. I have read short term solution suggestions and attempted them both - 1) ensuring java script entry for utils.js is present and I have not included any further references to java scripts 2) I edited the utils.js file and changed all window.document.forms[0] references to window.document.forms[1] this seamed to solve the problem but for a limited time only. The selection of e-persons problem appears to start once you edit the default-header.jsp. As such I have only been able to restore normal access to epersons by restoring all the edited Jsps or ensuring that I edit window.document.forms[0] as indicated above (but this option does not solve the problem permanently, as e-persons are no longer accessible after a while despite no changes being made to the server). Does anyone have any experience with this problem persisting beyond the suggested fixes??

Re: [Dspace-tech] Unplanned user access
Hello all, I have analyzed this problem again. What happens is that a given users level of access is imposed on any subsequent user of the SAME system when accessing Dspace under one of the following conditions 1) Once login is attempted within 2-4 mins of the first user's logging out. 2) The subsequent user logs on while the first user is logged into dspace from another location. For example if User "A" accesses "sys 1" then logs out and User "B" attempts to access the same item on "sys 1" within 2-4 mins then "B" is given user "A"'s level of access whether that means complete access or being denied entry and the logged in user will APPEAR TO BE USER "A". Also if User "A" now logs in on another system say.. "sys 2" then any user who access ANY system that "A" has used, will then have "A"'s level of access imposed on them and see themselves logged in as "A" while "A" is logged in and has accessed the item in question I have tested this many times Has anyone observed this or solved this issue?? Thanks for any info..

Again, I don't *think* this can happen - as Christophe pointed out, it's not DSpace that is serving a cached version of the page, but the browser "reusing" a locally cached version - so a user will only see themselves logged on if they (or someone else) has previously logged on to the system, and then logged off again, in the same browser session . . . I've certainly not heard of anything like the scenarios you describe actually happening - the problems I hear about are usually the "other way around" - I've had numerous enquiries from our workflow staff relating to things like the "Edit" button not being visible on an item view page - these are always problems relating to a cached version of the item view page - they access an item page, then subsequently log on and go back to that page, but don't get access to the admin features (the give away is always the absence of the "Logged in as" message).
