Re: [Dspace-tech] Development goals

[Christophe Dupriez]

Hi Tim, (copy to Michele, Dorothea and the Tech list)

Thanks for your views and congratulations for your work with IDEALS.

Just to be sure to be well understood: I am not in any way proposing to 
disturb developpers, I am speaking about organising USERS so they 
express their needs, build concensus and propose developers to build 
prototypes they can evaluate. I am also proposing to organize better the 
commitment process to improve consistency and reliability. This will ask 
for inter-institutional efforts so I also propose institutions to 
finance parts of those processes. This is the key of adequation and 
perenity.


I am not saying nothing of this is done now, I am just proposing this to 
be improved under the drive of the Federation.


Wishing you and all a very nice day!

Christophe Dupriez

All,

As a Committer, I'm going to go ahead and step out on limb here, and 
admit that I agree with most of what has been put forth by both 
Dorothea and Christophe.  That being said, I'm not claiming to speak 
on behalf of all the Committers :)


I would *love* a more beautified DSpace...a clean, "flashy", web-2.0 
interface, a modular system that is easy to extend via 
plugins/add-ons, an *easy* way to share/install those plugins/add-ons 
between institutions, and an *easy* way to upgrade core DSpace 
(without merge nightmares between your local hacks/customizations and 
the features of the new version).


I'm also in full support of working towards better needs assessment. 
But, at the same time, a part of me feels that different institutions 
will have some different needs based on how they are using of DSpace. 
So, in the end, allowing for easy extensions/modules, and easy sharing 
of these community-developed features is a great way to go.


That being said, I'd like to mention just a few things to look forward 
to with 1.5 and beyond:


1) I believe there will be vast strides to beautifying DSpace UI, once 
we all get our hands on Manakin in 1.5 (many thanks to Scott P & all 
at Texas A&M).  The modularity within Manakin should also allow us to 
all develop new an interesting Themes & Aspects, which should be much 
more shareable amongst institutions. (But, we also need to find a 
place to actually post these for sharing!)


2) I believe that our move towards the Maven build system (thanks to 
Mark D) with 1.5 will be a huge step in the right direction for better 
modularity within DSpace, and better separation between the core API 
and various Interfaces (Manakin, JSP, OAI-PMH, LNI, etc.).  There are 
still a few kinks here, but we're learning quickly and attempting to 
make things easier to manage as separate modules (and also easier to 
upgrade!).  The goal here is to hopefully help allow 
community-developed customizatins/add-ons to flourish and not be a 
continual pain in managing/updating.  In addition, we want to make 
them more easily shareable between institutions (i.e. without the pain 
of merging local code, etc.).  I'm not claiming this will all be 
figured out or 100% perfect in 1.5...but, it is a goal I'm hoping we 
can get to by 1.6 or 2.0 (or whatever comes after 1.5).


As a Committer, I also feel obligated to mention that the Committers 
are  all volunteers.  We are working hard to make DSpace better for 
all of us, but there's only so much we can do (and largely our 
development work is defined by our the individual interests of the 
institutions which pay our salaries).  Therefore, DSpace is still 
dependent on new features/ideas/functionality being proposed & 
developed/prototyped by an active user community.  The Committers may 
be able to step in and help out (when their institutions allow), but I 
believe an active community is still necessary.  Remember, the 
Committers are often just highly-active community members!  Case in 
point: I was only asked to become a Committer after my giving back to 
the community (in the form of DSpace tutorials and Q&A on listservs), 
as well as the large amount of work in designing, re-designing & 
developing the Configurable Submission (which my institution allowed 
me the opportunity to take on).


I'm really glad to see these discussions taking place!  It means we do 
have people in the community who care strongly about DSpace and are 
willing to share their opinions and suggestions for moving forward.  I 
encourage you to continue to help drive DSpace in the right direction!


Ok...that's my diatribe or rather long $0.02 :)

The technicities are the reasons we meet, the subjects vary!

I share most of Dorothea opinions.

the query3 argument is missed so you get a nullpointer... from dspace
1.4 this is not more a problem but if you don't want update, a quick fix
can be
change the QueryArgs class adding a null check
line155: if (query1.length() > 0) -> if (query1 != null &&
query1.length() > 0)
line 160: if (query2.length() > 0) -> if (query2 != null &&
query2.length() > 0)
line 168: if (query3.length() > 0) -> if (query3 != null &&
query3.length() > 0)

after the change you need to recompile & deploy dspace (i.e. ant
-Dconfig=/path/to/dspace.cfg update and copy of dspace.war in tomcat)

Re: [Dspace-tech] Getting error "RSS feed missing channel description"

[Mika Stenberg]

Richard,

We've had the same problem for quite some time now. It seems that when 
the number of items in a collection gets rather large, the RSS feeds 
cannot be generated. I posted a message about this on the list some time 
ago, but havent received any hints on fixing it. If you get any, please 
let me know.

Is there a feature request / bug reporting system for DSpace anyways? 
Putting issues like this up on display somewhere might be more efficient 
than throwing it on the message archive. It might prevent devepment of 
overlapping features / add-ons as well.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Getting error "RSS feed missing channel description"

[Richard M. Davis]

Hi Mika

Not a big collection in our case (2 items!), though it could be 
significant that the user backed out halfway through creating it 
(leaving one of those lovely Nulls) then returned to it another day.

Easiest thing would be to delete it and start again, but wondered first 
if there was another angle. Does the error even refer to the contents of 
element /rss/channel/description (which is empty even in feeds that 
don't throw errors) - or to something else?

Perhaps someone knows if it's an upgrade issue - we're overdue for one, 
and I was hoping the next upgrade would be to 1.5, but may have to 
settle for 1.4.2 in the short term.

Best

Richard

Re: [Dspace-tech] Development goals

[Michele Kimpton]

Dear Christophe and DSpace community,

One of the main projects the Foundation ( not federation, and I point  
this out as they are completely different) has taken on is to put  
together a team from the community and get funding for DSpace 2.0.   
The work to be done will involve core architectural changes- under  
the hood, so to speak- that will be somewhat transparent to many end  
users.  However, these changes will have large implications down the  
road, in a good way, for the community at large.

One of the complaints is to be able to easily change the UI, or  
create multiple UI's,  Web 2.0 interactions,ect., is due to the fact  
the code is not modular ( as Tim points out). One of the main goals  
of 2.0 is to make it more modular so organizations can "plug and  
play", meaning choose the interface(s) they prefer.  It also allows  
many more developers to participate in the process- as their  
contributions can be rolled into the releases much more easily, given  
the code will not have complex interdependencies with the rest of the  
core code ( we hope).

If we are successful in putting together a modular architecture- than  
we can have multiple UI's, asset stores, workflows ect.  As there are  
no dedicated developers within the community or the Foundation  
working full time on DSpace- it is important to empower the community  
to be able to contribute code that fits their organizational needs-  
and therefore we must put an architecture in place that supports this  
process.  We hope to start the work for DSpace 2.0 this winter.

Once 2.0 is in place we can start a process where users can assess  
user needs and feature requests(developers can do this now on source  
forge) but realize the work to develop those features will still need  
to be done within the community, and maybe the community will be  
willing to pay for development time to make it happen  
collaboratively, but that remains to be seen.  I plan on hiring a  
Technology Director within the Foundation to help lead this process 
(2.0 and beyond).  We have secured some of the funding and developer  
time to do the work required.  I hope to secure the remaining funding  
needed over the next few months.  If anyone in the community would  
like to help me in this process( getting funding, donating developer  
time, volunteering I welcome your help.


sincerely,
Michele
DSpace Foundation Director

[Dspace-tech] Question about the Dspace bookmark patch

[yinjin]

Hi All,

I'm working on Dspace 1.5 with manakin. I saw postings on this page
http://www.nabble.com/--dspace-Patches-1812282---Item-bookmarking-t4614092.html
about the dspace bookmark patch. However, I'm not sure if this patch is
going to work with manakin as there is no "MyDSapce" in manakin. Anyone
knows?

Thanks,
Ying

[Dspace-tech] Getting error "RSS feed missing channel description"

[Richard M. Davis]

Hi

We're running 1.4 and getting a stream of errors on the RSS feeds (1 and 
2) for one particular collection. Does anyone know a quick fix - is 
there simply a metadata field that's missing, or maybe a database hack 
that will do the trick?

Hope you can help!

[Dspace-tech] Stop an item being web indexed?

[NS Hashmi, Information Systems and Computing]

Hi,

We've had a request to make an item in our DSpace instance inaccessible to 
web search engines as required by a publisher. Is there any way to prevent 
search engines such as Google from accessing/indexing a particular item 
(meta-data and full text)? would adding an entry into the robots.txt file 
resolve the problem?

Thanks,

Naveed

Did the files in your tomcat installation deflate? You might need to
change the owner of the war file to tomcat.

[Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Drrty Byl]

Hello, I have been trying to install DSpace on my Fedora Core 5 server
to use in a school project for the past several days.  I am able to
successfully build and install the package, but still cannot access
the web interface.  Here are the specifications for my project along
with the steps I have tried to get it working:

Fedora Core 5 (kernel 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5, i386)
DSpace version 1.4.2
dspace.dir = /dspace  dspace.url = http://localhost:8080/dspace
dspace.hostname = localhost
Java version "1.6.0_03" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05)
Tomcat 5 (installed from Redhat Package Manager/yum interface)
Apache 2.2 (installed from Redhat Package Manager/yum interface)
PostgreSQL 8.1.9

1 - Regular sequence of Postgres database creation is successful, "ant
fresh_install" build is successful, software installed at "/dspace".
2 - Tomcat and Apache are restarted
3 - visiting http://localhost:8080 with Firefox displays Apache Test Page
4 - visiting http://localhost:8080/dspace results in a 404 error: Not Found
5 - visiting http://localhost:8080/dspace/ results in a 503 error:
Service Temporarily Unavailable

I am positive that both Tomcat and Apache are running; port 8080 is
NOT firewalled.  The next step I tried was installing the mod_jk
connector using the directions at:
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/ModJk .  This did not resolve the
problem.  Should "ProxyRequests On" and "NameVirtualHost *:80" be
uncommented in Apache httpd.conf?  Also, do I need to define a <
location > in this file?  Does anyone have a working Apache
configuration file with changes made in respect to DSpace
installation?  I get the impression this might somehow be related to
the problem.  It looks as though Tomcat, although running, is not
serving DSpace.  Any help to get this functioning is greatly
appreciated!  Billy

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Kyle Brentnell]

As Wayne mentioned in another email check to see if the DSpace war files
deflated.

In /usr/share/tomcat5/webapps/  you should see:
dspace.war
dspace-oai.war
dspace 
dspace-oai 

If you see those 4 files and directories and Tomcat is running you should
get a DSpace page at http://localhost:8080/dspace (either the normal home
page, or a dspace error page).

[Drrty Byl]

Hi -- Thanks for your responses!

I tried changing ownership of the /usr/share/tomcat5/webapps/ war
files that were copied as part of the installation to user Tomcat.  I
also killed the Apache service and restarted the Tomcat service.  Now
http://localhost:8080 displays the default Tomcat page,
http://localhost:8080/dspace (and http://localhost:8080/dspace/) still
displays a 404 error (albeit a Tomcat 404 message).  Any other ideas?
Thanks again, Billy

Re: [Dspace-tech] Google Analytics - How do you set up the Site Search tracking parameters

[mfrodrigues]

  Hi Mark,

I'm using Google Analytics for a few days now, and your mail came in  
handy! I wasn't aware of that option to identify a search query.


So, yesterday, I've activated the "Site Search", and added as a query  
the word "query", that is the name of the input box.


So, on yesterday's report, I was able to see all the search strings  
that were made! And we can also see where was the origin request made.  
Since every community/collection has a search box, this method is  
excellent to understand where the search request was made. If it was  
on simple or advanced search, or if it was inside a collection.


So, the item is "query" and it's the only one i use. But i only have a  
one day experience with this Site Search, and i don't know if there's  
another query parameters to configure. Does anyone else has any  
experience to share with us?


  Marcelo Rodrigues



Hi,

Has anyone out there who's using Google Analytics on their DSpace   
instances tried setting up the site search tracking (from within  
the  Content section) and if so what are the Query Parameters that  
need  to be entered to set it all up please?


Cheers,
Mark

This patch will not work with Manakin as you correctly pointed out 
because there is no My DSpace in Manakin.

It is also worth pointing out that Manakin and the old JSP-based UI are 
not compatible with each other so it would require a re-write to make 
this work with the Manakin XMLUI interface.

Perhaps you could revert to the JSPUI to test out the bookmarking patch 
to see if it fits your needs?

[Kyle Brentnell]

Hi Billy,

You do not need to use Apache with a "default" Dspace installation.  In step
3 you say you receive an Apache Test page at http://localhost:8080.

Typically you should receive a Tomcat page at that URL.

Either setup Tomcat to run on port 8080, or if Tomcat is running on another
port (for example port 8181) then go to http://localhost:8181/dspace

Note:  If you want Tomcat to run on port 8080, you will need to get Apache
to stop using it first.  Tomcat and Apache will not share the same port.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Graham Triggs]

Do you have the manager application installed on Tomcat? 
(http://localhost:8080/manager/html)

If so, what does it say about the status of the DSpace application?

Have you checked the Tomcat log files?

Is Tomcat running under a security manager? (I'm not sure how this is / 
would be configured under Fedora). If it is, the configuration manager 
probably won't get loaded, and the application will fail to initialise 
correctly.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Palmquist, Larry E]

If you get an Apache test page when browsing http://localhost:8080 then
your Apache is running on port 8080.  It might also be listening on port
80, but Apache probably gets port 8080 before Tomcat is started.  What
happens if you try http://localhost:80/ ?  My guess is you get the
Apache test page.  If you look at your Apache configuration file,
probably something like /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf (I don't
remember if RedHat puts it someplace else).  You'll probably see a line
like:  

Listen 8080

Change it to

Listen 80

and restart Apache

With NameVirtualHost set, if a server has a number of DNS names, a name
not explicitly configured in a VirtualHost stanza is usually treated by
Apache like the first-defined VirtualHost (as is
http://server.ip.address.digits/ because it doesn't match a particular
configured "name").  "localhost" probably doesn't match NameVirtualHost
*:80, and gets the globally defined Listen 8080.

Larry

Hello, I have been trying to install DSpace on my Fedora Core 5 server

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

Yes, I have the manager application installed.  I logged in as you
suggested -- low and behold neither the /dspace nor /dspace-oai
applications are running.  When I click either of these to start them,
the page refreshes and they do not start.  Also please note that I
have uncommented the code which adds the port connection for the
mod_jk module in the tomcat configuration file () as instructed in the
mod_jk connector install directions.  Should there be some kind of
DSpace entry in server.xml that could be missing?  Also, should there
be a line in the $dspace.source/config/dspace.cfg file that points to
the Tomcat server.xml upon compilation?  There is nothing in the
Display Name field in the Tomcat manager application for DSpace.
Thanks, Billy

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Graham Triggs]

Then the application is falling over during startup. The two most 
obvious causes:

1) The configuration item in web.xml that points to dspace.cfg does not 
match the location of the file.

2) The initialisation servlet is throwing an exception due to running 
under a security manager, and therefore it can't read the system properties.

Either way, you need to check the Tomcat log files to see what error 
message is being written.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Drrty Byl]

Thanks Graham.  Here is one loop from repetitive output in
/var/log/tomcat5/catalina.out :

INFO: HTMLManager: start: Starting web application at '/dspace'
15-Nov-07 7:49:19 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error in dependencyCheck

INFO: HTMLManager: list: Listing contexts for virtual host 'localhost'

Nothing in my /usr/share/tomcat5/conf/web.xml points to
/dspace/dspace.cfg -- should it?  It almost looks like part of Tomcat
isn't loading?  By the way, /tomcat5/webapps/dspace/ and
/tomcat5/webapps/dspace-oai/ directories do contain installation
files.  I am not running SELinux, nor am I blocking any services or
port 8080.  Could this be caused by a permissions-related issue?
Other Tomcat-related applications (such as jsp examples) are working.

Re: [Dspace-tech] how to create a non-interative submission step in manakin

[Tim Donohue]

Ying,

Take a look at the docs/submission.html documentation with DSpace 1.5alpha.

Near the end of that documentation, there are tips on "Creating a new 
Submission Step".   If you only implement the "required" items (#1 & #4 
in that list), you will end up with a non-interactive step.  If you 
wanted to create an interactive step, you would also need to create the 
appropriate interface, whether it be JSPs or a Manakin "Transformer".

If this documentation isn't clear, let me know.  If necessary, I can try 
and clean it up to clarify any questions/misunderstandings.

[Dspace-tech] Viruses and DSpace

[Blanco, Jose]

Has any thought been given to how Dspace might handle the remote (
hopefully ) possibility of a file containing a virus being deposited
into a repository?  It seems like jhove might be the kind of tool that
could check for this.  I believe there is some work going on to
incorporate jhove into Dspace, how is that coming along?  It's not part
of of 1.5, but what about for the following release?

Thanks for any information you may have!

Jose

BTW, we haven't had any problems with viruses, but we were asked about
this recently. Thanks!

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace Installation Saga: Please Help!

[Gary Browne]

 Hi Billy

I think you want to look at the web.xml file in WEB-INF, not the one in
conf - it's either the web.xml under:

[tomcat]/webapps/dspace/WEB-INF

Or:

[tomcat]/WEB-INF

I'm not sure which is the pertinent one - I suspect the former. In any
case, there should be reference to your dspace.cfg file in there -
something like:


  DSpace Web UI


  

  
dspace-config
/usr/local/dspace/config/dspace.cfg

  The location of the main DSpace configuration file

  

.
.
.

Hope this helps
Regards
Gary

Thanks Graham.  Here is one loop from repetitive output in
/var/log/tomcat5/catalina.out :

INFO: HTMLManager: start: Starting web application at '/dspace'
15-Nov-07 7:49:19 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error in dependencyCheck
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error getConfigured
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Context [/dspace] startup failed due to previous errors
15-Nov-07 7:49:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext stop
INFO: Container

has not been started
15-Nov-07 7:49:21 PM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log
INFO: HTMLManager: list: Listing contexts for virtual host 'localhost'

Nothing in my /usr/share/tomcat5/conf/web.xml points to
/dspace/dspace.cfg -- should it?  It almost looks like part of Tomcat
isn't loading?  By the way, /tomcat5/webapps/dspace/ and
/tomcat5/webapps/dspace-oai/ directories do contain installation files.
I am not running SELinux, nor am I blocking any services or port 8080.
Could this be caused by a permissions-related issue?
Other Tomcat-related applications (such as jsp examples) are working.

[Dspace-tech] OpenSearch support?

[Mark H. Wood]

There's interest here in adding OpenSearch support to our DSpaces.  I
found some two-year-old pages suggesting the possiblity of such, but
the author seems to have moved on.  There's no mention of OpenSearch
on the DSpace Wiki.  Has this been done?
