[Archivesspace_Users_Group] PUI search result question

[Kevin Clair]

Hello,

We upgraded to 2.1.1 about a week or two ago, and one of the issues our 
archivists noticed related to the new PUI is that collections show up very far 
down in the search results, relative to the staff interface. As an example, a 
keyword search for “peter dominick” in the staff interface returns the 
collection of his papers as the very first hit; at 
http://duarchives.coalliance.org, it doesn’t show up until page seven.

Is that something I can configure in the PUI settings in the config.rb file? 
For reference purposes it’s hard to have to scroll through multiple pages of 
results to land on the result for the collection. thanks!  -k

Thank you everyone.  Trying some directions from UVA … will see how that goes 
on Monday AM.
If it works, we’ll be good … if not I resend an update. We have been using 
github links so keeping my fingers crossed.   Tara

Hi Tara-

We also experienced the unzipping issue with 1.5.0. Try 1.5.1 instead.

Hi Tara,

What links are broken that you’re trying to access? I’m able to access the 
github links:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/UPGRADING_1.5.0.md
http://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/user/upgrading-to-a-new-release-of-archivesspace/

I was also able to unzip the 1.5.0 zip:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v1.5.0

Are you attempting to access the github or looking somewhere else?

Thanks,
Maura

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Help with Upgrades

Good afternoon again.  I sent out the previous email this morning.
We need some help upgrading from 1.4.2.

In the process of using the installation links available, none of the links are 
working.

Where can we find a clean installation file to take us from 1.4.2 to 2.1.2
We understand we may need to run two installations to get us from 1.4 to 2.1
But we cannot find installation files that work.
The zip file for 1.5.0 will not properly unzip without errors.
The zip file for 2.0.0 unzips but appears to be incomplete: missing set up 
database.dat file that we need.

Thank you for any help you can give.  We are at a stand still until we get some 
help with upgrade installation.

Good morning.



Hoping some can answer my question about upgrading to the current Archives 
Space version.

We received the announcement for 2.1.1 and are in the process of upgrading from 
1.4.2.

When we go to the web site to upgrade there is now a 2.1.2.

As a rule, I usually pick the last point release in a series as expected to be 
the least buggy.

In this case, that would be 1.5.4and 2.1.2 .

You can also look at the release notes for the point releases and see if any of 
the bug fixes seem significant or necessary.  But when in doubt, I'ld go for 
the latest minor release in a series.



The UPGRADING_2.1.0.md doc:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/UPGRADING_2.1.0.md

says that migrating from 1.4.2 or lower REQUIRES an intermediate upgrade to 
something between 1.5.0 and 2.0.1.  But due to some problems we've seen from 
the container migration, see email thread from back in January with Subject: 
Indexer Errors in 1.5.2

http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/pipermail/archivesspace_users_group/2017-January/thread.html

and probably some other threads, I recommend migrating first to 1.5.x and 
fixing all of the container issues before upgrading again.  Going from 1.4.2 to 
2.0.x  without fixing the problems caused the indexer to break, but made it 
more difficult to find the problem resources.





I don't find a 'database.dat'  file anywhere in my distribution or anywhere 
that a file with that names is required. What error are you seeing and on what 
step?  Did you run the scripts/setup-database.{sh,bat} command ?

Hi Tara,

Hopefully the suggestions here on the listserv have gotten you what you need - 
the releases page in Github 
(https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases) has notes and links 
for all past releases and the current release - but if you need more help in 
getting your ArchivesSpace upgraded, we can put a tech support ticket in for 
you. (This is a benefit of ArchivesSpace membership - more information on the 
process is available at 
http://archivesspace.org/member-area/technical-support/.) Please just email us 
at archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org if you 
decide you need that kind of assistance.

The Bodleian Digital Library Systems and Services (BDLSS) at the Bodleian 
Libraries provide digital services for the students, researchers and staff of 
the University of Oxford.

We are now seeking a talented XML-focused Software Engineer to work on a varied

you will work with a team of developers, project managers, and archivists on a 
number of key projects to enhance access and discoverability for the Bodleian's 
world-class special collections. You will initially focus on developing and 
implementing new technical solutions for post-medieval archival materials and 
will participate in the scoping and planning of future work in this area.

Your role will include developing and helping maintain the Bodleian's growing 
collections of archives and manuscripts metadata, especially its XML-based 
catalogues, migrating XML-based catalogue records into new tools and 
contributing to establishing cataloguing workflows. You will also participate 
in related user and development communities and in training staff and act as a 
resource for technical questions and forward planning.

You will also have the opportunity to contribute to a variety of future 
initiatives, including projects focused on metadata management and

Digital Humanities or experience in working with EAD and TEI metadata 
environments is desirable.

Owing to the nature of this post, the successful candidate will be required to

provided.

September 2017.
