[Dspace-tech] configuring submission
This question is for Tim Donohue. Tim, I'm looking for a way to group metadata items in the submission forms so that they are required as a group. In particular, I would like the user to enter: Author, affiliation, and email_of_author As a group. Each of these items would just be text the user enters, but they must enter all three, or an error is reported. Does your patch for configuring submissions http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1691345group_id=1 9984atid=319984 aid=1691345group_id=19984atid=319984 handle this, or perhaps this will be easy to do once Manakin is out? Do you know if there is a patch out there that supports? Many thanks!

Re: [Dspace-tech] configuring submission
Hi Jose, The quick answer is no, my patch doesn't provide any extra functionality regarding requiring metadata items or even grouping metadata items. The main purpose of my configurable submission patch is to allow any DSpace administrators the ability to easily rearrange or remove existing steps in the submission process (just by editing an XML config file). It also gives DSpace administrators the ability to create their own custom steps (provided they are technical enough to create their own user interface and Java processing code). However, there are a few routes you could take to require those three fields: 1) The simple route: You could modify the config/input-forms.xml file (which controls the metadata input fields) to specify that all three of those metadata fields are required. However, this is probably not the answer you are looking for, since I would imagine that some DSpace items may not have an author to begin with, so you cannot always require that field. 2) Another option: You could create some custom javascript magic to ensure that a user has populated both a corresponding affiliation and email whenever they fill out the author field. If they haven't, you can also highlight those empty fields using some javascript and ask them to fill them out. (This is assuming you can require all your submitters to use a javascript-enabled browser) If you really felt energetic, you could also try and extend the existing Describe step functionality (and the input-forms.xml) to support this sort of metadata field dependency. But, off the top of my head, it sounds like something that may get complex (though I would imagine others using DSpace would be very interested in the functionality as well) Perhaps others have better ideas of how to implement this? Off the top of my head I don't believe Manakin will resolve this either. But, if you go with building custom Javascript, that code should carry over relatively easily to Manakin. - Tim -- Tim Donohue Research Programmer, Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship (IDEALS) 135 Grainger Engineering Library University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://www.ideals.uiuc.edu phone: (217) 333-4648 fax: (217) 244-7764 Jose Blanco wrote: This question is for Tim Donohue.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving postgres database
I would recommend the snapshot of the database as the technique to use. Using the pgdump and restore is messy at best. I have yet to get that to work in test, whatsoever, and the Postgres documentation is of no help. The secondary route is to perform an export of all of your dspace content, if you have that kind of room. Then you don't need to necessarily worry about Postgres versioning or the messy pg_dump and restore routines. Good luck.

[Dspace-tech] Edit Submitters button disappeared after upgrade to 1.4.1
Hi, after an upgrade from 1.2.2, via 1.3.2 to 1.4.1 the Edit Submitters in the sidebar of the Collection page has disappeared. The rest of the upgrade seems to have gone fine. I'm looking deep into the servlet code but - until now - it is completely dark to me what could have caused this and how to repair it. Does anyone have a clue?

[Dspace-tech] Sequence ID generation
Hi everyone - I submitted this question previously but had no replies...thought I'd try my luck again with a cunningly disguised turned about subject line. Regarding the sequence ID, the number between the handle and the filename in a DSpace bitstream URL: dspace url/bitstream/handle/sequence ID/filename can anyone tell me how the sequence ID number is generated by DSpace? Does it simply correspond to the sequence of bitstreams as outlined in the contents file?
