Re: [Dspace-tech] handle in dspace

2009-05-07 Thread Sean Carte
2009/5/6 Serbe Leon Rojas serbe.ro...@biblioteca.udea.edu.co:
 What is the advantage of acquiring the unique identficador handle?

 Is it really necessary for the project?

Have a look at the documentation, particularly:
dspace-1.5.2/dspace/docs/html/ch03.html#N10AA6

'*  You don't have to use CNRI's Handle system. At the moment,
you need to change the code a little to use something else (e.g PURLs)
but that should change soon.
'*  You'll notice that while you've been playing around with a
test server, DSpace has apparently been creating handles for you
looking like hdl:123456789/24 and so forth. These aren't really
Handles, since the global Handle system doesn't actually know about
them, and lots of other DSpace test installs will have created the
same IDs.
'  They're only really Handles once you've registered a prefix
with CNRI (see below) and have correctly set up the Handle server
included in the DSpace distribution. This Handle server communicates
with the rest of the global Handle infrastructure so that anyone that
understands Handles can find the Handles your DSpace has created.'

Also: dspace-1.5.2/dspace/docs/html/ch02.html#N1041B
'Researchers require a stable point of reference for their works. The
simple evolution from sharing of citations to emailing of URLs broke
when Web users learned that sites can disappear or be reconfigured
without notice, and that their bookmark files containing critical
links to research results couldn't be trusted long term. To help solve
this problem, a core DSpace feature is the creation of persistent
identifier for every item, collection and community stored in DSpace.
To persist identifier, DSpace requires a storage- and location-
independent mechanism for creating and maintaining identifiers. DSpace
uses the CNRI Handle System for creating these identifiers. The rest
of this section assumes a basic familiarity with the Handle system.

'DSpace uses Handles primarily as a means of assigning globally unique
identifiers to objects. Each site running DSpace needs to obtain a
Handle 'prefix' from CNRI, so we know that if we create identifiers
with that prefix, they won't clash with identifiers created
elsewhere.'

[Dspace-tech] Automatic Item lists

2009-05-07 Thread Lyn Amery
Hi all,

 

When a client browses through the DSpace website, through communities

and down into a particular collection, they are delivered to a page
giving details

of that collection.  Is it possible to have an automatic listing of
items within

that collection appear on that page as well, arranged by title for
example?  

Rather than having to click on the browse category title under This
Collection ?

 

Cheers,

Lyn

Re: [Dspace-tech] Indexing question

2009-05-07 Thread Richard Jones
Hi Jeff,

 We want to add date.issued to the drop down menu of the Advanced 
 Keyword searching.  It looks
 easy enough, but I must be missing something.  Here is what I have 
 done so far, but cannot search 
 only using that drop-down:

 1. Edited Messages.properties for the appropriate line to be added
 2.   Edited advanced.jsp 
 3. Added a line to DSIndexer.java  (was there a particular order that 
 this needed to be added ?)
 4. Recompiled the whole thing.
 5 Reindexed the whole thing

You shouldn't need to modify DSIndexer to add this term.  The dspace.cfg 
has search index configuration, where you can add the field to be 
indexed, and the name of the index.  You should only need to add the 
option in the UI to actually search on it.

So look for a configuration like this:

search.index.1 = author:dc.contributor.*

and add your own with:

search.index.[n] = date:dc.date.issued

 Results:  You can drop down the menu choice and bring up date but 
 when you place say, 
 1970 the search results to 0.

 HEre is the line from DSIndexer.java, and perhaps that is where the 
 issue therein lies:

  new IndexConfig(date,   dc, date,issued, 
  text)

 Is there somewhere I need to edit code to make this happen?

I don't know the ins and outs of the indexer, but I'd be inclined to try 
the config route first, as maybe there's more going on than meets the 
eye with the indexer.

Cheers,

Richard

[Dspace-tech] Add meta data to the dublin core - any possible inconvenience?

2009-05-07 Thread Antonio Cuomo
Hi!

To describe our Capacity building material we need to use some metadata that
are not in dublin core (like the web url).
I have then to add new metadata, my question is:
is it better to add metadata to the dublin core schema or to create a new
schema and define the new metadata needed in the new schema?

Is there any problem for the on-line user to use ad-hoc created metadata
once we will publish our data on line ?

Thank you very much

[Dspace-tech] Join Us in Welcoming Ben Bosman as a new Commiter.

2009-05-07 Thread Mark Diggory
Dear all,

It is with great pleasure that the DSpace Commit Group would like to
announce the latest addition to the group: Ben Bosman.  Please join me in
welcoming him!

Ben has acted as architect on many commercial contracts providing
customization of the DSpace platform and has made significant contribution
to DSpace in the past, including new features for RSS support.  Ben has been
recognized as a long term participant in the community as @mire has a vested
interest in the success of DSpace as an Open Source platform.  Ben will be a
devoted player in maintaining DSpace as an Open Platform and has a number of
existing projects planned for contribution to the codebase.  The addition of
Ben as a committer provides a very active, pragmatic and practical
development resource to the DSpace commit team.

Some background for those who do not know Ben:

2004-2005
Completed master thesis together with @mire colleague Lieven Droogmans on
the use of DSpace for storing research output
Created RSS functionality for DSpace and presented it at DSUG in Cambridge
Presented proposal for authorization in DSpace at DSUG in Cambridge
Presented Proposal for file conversion for digital preservation and end-user
ease-of-use in DSpace at DSUG in Cambridge

2006-present
Founded @mire, a company offering DSpace services and DSpace modules to
customers in Europe, USA, Canada and South-Africa and currently involved
with almost 20 institution's DSpace repositories
Member of the DSpace 2.0 development team.


Ben's anticipated involvement as a DSpace committer:

*Development on DSpace 2.0:*
This development is currently ongoing in collaboration with the foundation
and includes work to be presented at OR09.  Ben is working on the codebase
and managing @mire developers to complete critical development neccessary
for the project and the community.
*
Maintenance, Enhancements and Bugfixes on current DSpace releases:*
Due to a wide array of different DSpace instances @mire is offering support,
custom development and modules for,  Ben has considerable in-house
experience with different versions of DSpace and the various issues/bugs
that may arise.

*Planning, Requirements and Development on future DSpace releases:*
Ben and @mire have a close connection with many different users with
different requirements using DSpace for research output, digital libraries,
project management. This knowledge is an excellent foundation for evaluating
contributions, enhancing the core codebase of DSpace and offering feedback
about decisions which might cause issues with the current releases of DSpace
codebase.

Ben would like to express thanks for the recognition of his dedication to
DSpace with this new role.  His addition as a committer is part of an
ongoing initiative to scale and restructure the DSpace development team to
be more productive and responsive to the DSpace user community. Welcome on

When you run the indexer, what sort of logging do you see?  Should be 
that the indexer logs everything that goes into it, so you should see 
the values getting indexed.  You may need to turn log4j up to DEBUG in 
order to see this.

I'd be surprised if it is a bug, as this bit of the code has been around 
for some time.

[Dspace-tech] Help: How to customise export download emails

2009-05-07 Thread clive gould
Hi

I've got the following parameters in dspace.cfg

### Item export and download settings ###
# The directory where the exports will be done and compressed
org.dspace.app.itemexport.work.dir = ${dspace.dir}/exports

# The directory where the compressed files will reside and be read by
the downloader
org.dspace.app.itemexport.download.dir = ${dspace.dir}/exports/download


When an item is exported the zip file is stored in
/home/dspace/exports/download/4

However the download URL in the email received points to the wrong
location: i.e.

You may download the compressed file using the following link:
http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace/exportdownload/item_export_2009_May_07_2_4.zip

How do I change the link in the email to point to the correct location?

Thanks very much

Re: [Dspace-tech] Help: How to customise export download emails

2009-05-07 Thread Claudia Jürgen
Hi Clive,

the export directory settings in dspace.cfg are irrelevant for the 
retrieval URL. There is no direct access via URL to the directories 
mentioned in the dspace.cfg.

The retrieval URL is build in org.dspace.app.itemexport emailSuccessMessage
see: 
email.addArgument(ConfigurationManager.getProperty(dspace.url) + 
/exportdownload/ + fileName);

The parts in your example are:
dspace.url in dspace.cfg = http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace
/exportdownload/
fileName = item_export_2009_May_07_2_4.zip

Now for example in jspui the web.xml determines what is done with the 
URL http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace/exportdownload/*
see web.xml:
servlet-mapping
servlet-nameexportdownload/servlet-name
url-pattern/exportdownload/*/url-pattern
/servlet-mapping

servlet
servlet-nameexportdownload/servlet-name
servlet-classorg.dspace.app.webui.servlet.ItemExportArchiveServlet/servlet-class
/servlet

In the end the ItemExportArchiveServlet handles the Export.

Why do you want to change the URL created, does yours not work?

Hope that helps

Claudia Jürgen

Re: [Dspace-tech] Indexing question

2009-05-07 Thread Jeffrey Trimble
The logging looked fine, except for one null exception  (dang those  
things).


I did find a typo in the dspace.cfg file after looking at it really,  
really, carefully.

After fixing that, things indexed perfectly.

I think the problem is I'm overly-aggressive in getting things to work  
fast, and

small typos cause me migraines.

But, from every mistake I've made, I've learned some drill-down on how  
the

Possible bug?


When you run the indexer, what sort of logging do you see?  Should be
that the indexer logs everything that goes into it, so you should see
the values getting indexed.  You may need to turn log4j up to DEBUG in
order to see this.

I'd be surprised if it is a bug, as this bit of the code has been  
around

for some time.

Hi Jeff,


We want to add date.issued to the drop down menu of the Advanced

easy enough, but I must be missing something.  Here is what I have
done so far, but cannot search
only using that drop-down:

1. Edited Messages.properties for the appropriate line to be added
2.   Edited advanced.jsp
3. Added a line to DSIndexer.java  (was there a particular order  
that

this needed to be added ?)
4. Recompiled the whole thing.
5 Reindexed the whole thing


You shouldn't need to modify DSIndexer to add this term.  The  
dspace.cfg

has search index configuration, where you can add the field to be
indexed, and the name of the index.  You should only need to add the
option in the UI to actually search on it.

So look for a configuration like this:

search.index.1 = author:dc.contributor.*

and add your own with:

search.index.[n] = date:dc.date.issued


Results:  You can drop down the menu choice and bring up date but
when you place say,
1970 the search results to 0.

HEre is the line from DSIndexer.java, and perhaps that is where the
issue therein lies:

new IndexConfig(date,   dc, date,issued,
text)

Is there somewhere I need to edit code to make this happen?


I don't know the ins and outs of the indexer, but I'd be inclined  
to try
the config route first, as maybe there's more going on than meets  
the

eye with the indexer.

Cheers,

Richard

[Dspace-tech] Fwd: Help: How to customise export download emails

2009-05-07 Thread clive gould
Hi Claudia

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I need to change the URL because the link does not work.

Best wishes

Clive


2009/5/7 Claudia Jürgen claudia.juer...@ub.uni-dortmund.de:
 Hi Clive,

 the export directory settings in dspace.cfg are irrelevant for the retrieval
 URL. There is no direct access via URL to the directories mentioned in the
 dspace.cfg.

 The retrieval URL is build in org.dspace.app.itemexport emailSuccessMessage
 see: email.addArgument(ConfigurationManager.getProperty(dspace.url) +
 /exportdownload/ + fileName);

 The parts in your example are:
 dspace.url in dspace.cfg = http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace
 /exportdownload/
 fileName = item_export_2009_May_07_2_4.zip

 Now for example in jspui the web.xml determines what is done with the URL
 http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace/exportdownload/*
 see web.xml:
 servlet-mapping
 servlet-nameexportdownload/servlet-name
 url-pattern/exportdownload/*/url-pattern
 /servlet-mapping

 servlet
 servlet-nameexportdownload/servlet-name
 servlet-classorg.dspace.app.webui.servlet.ItemExportArchiveServlet/servlet-class
 /servlet

 In the end the ItemExportArchiveServlet handles the Export.

 Why do you want to change the URL created, does yours not work?

 Hope that helps

 Claudia Jürgen

 Hi

 I've got the following parameters in dspace.cfg

 ### Item export and download settings ###
 # The directory where the exports will be done and compressed
 org.dspace.app.itemexport.work.dir = ${dspace.dir}/exports

 # The directory where the compressed files will reside and be read by
 the downloader
 org.dspace.app.itemexport.download.dir = ${dspace.dir}/exports/download


 When an item is exported the zip file is stored in
 /home/dspace/exports/download/4

 However the download URL in the email received points to the wrong
 location: i.e.

 You may download the compressed file using the following link:

 http://vleinternal.bromley.ac.uk/dspace/exportdownload/item_export_2009_May_07_2_4.zip

 How do I change the link in the email to point to the correct location?

 Thanks very much

 Clive

Re: [Dspace-tech] Indexing question

2009-05-07 Thread Richard Jones
Hi Jeff,

 I did find a typo in the dspace.cfg file after looking at it really, 
 really, carefully.
 After fixing that, things indexed perfectly.

 I think the problem is I'm overly-aggressive in getting things to work 
 fast, and 
 small typos cause me migraines.

 But, from every mistake I've made, I've learned some drill-down on how the
 software works.

 My apologies for issuing the problem on the listserv when it was really my
 fault.

No problems, we've all been there :)

Cheers,

Richard

[Dspace-tech] Question about /dspace directory when upgrading from 1.4.2 to 1.5.1

2009-05-07 Thread Thornton, Susan M. (LARC-B702)[RAYTHEON TECHNICAL SERVICES COMPANY]
I have DSpace 1.5.1 successfully implemented on our Test machine and I am 
preparing to move it to Production, where we already have 1.4.2 implemented.  
My question is:

What is the best way to get your /dspace directory correctly 
upgraded in Production?  It seems to me that I've been unclear on this in 
previous releases and have had problems as a result.  My confusion arises from 
the following factors:
1.   The directory/file structure in DSpace 1.5.1 under /dspace 
is different:
a.   /jsp directory resides under /dspace in 1.4.2; no /jsp directory in 
1.5.1
b.   The /bin directory never got overlaid when you recompiled the 
application in 1.4.2;  in 1.5.1, the /bin directory gets rebuilt from 
/dspace-source/dspace/bin every time you reassemble/recompile the application
c.   /assetstore resides under /dspace in 1.4.2 and 1.5.1, however I do NOT 
want to copy over my test (1.5.1) /assetstore over my prod (1.4.2) assetstore 
b/c I only have a subset of data in Test
2.   When I first started our 1.5.1 implementation in Test, I 
copied everything under /dspace/bin in 1.4.2 to /dspace-source/dspace/bin; 
however we have added new files and modified some old files in /dspace/bin in 
1.4.2 since then - very confusing as to which /dspace/bin files are the 
correct ones

The documentation for upgrading from 1.4.2 to 1.5.1 does not specifically 
address this issue.

I would appreciate any comments and/or recommendations from anyone, especially 
those who have upgraded from 1.4.2 to 1.5.1 and may have faced some of these 
exact issues.

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Sue

Dear all,

 

It is with great pleasure that the DSpace committers group would like to
announce another addition to the group: Kim Shepherd. Please join us in
welcoming him!

 

Kim works at Waikato University in New Zealand for the Library
Consortium Of New Zealand (LCONZ). He is responsible for managing,
developing and supporting 4 DSpace instances. Over the past year Kim has
been active in helping out on the DSpace email lists, and in coding bug
fixes and new features for DSpace.

 

His current interests and areas of development are statistics, workflow
and submission, authentication and authorisation, and integration with
external research management applications. He can also be found working
away at various JSPUI/XMLUI ideas.

 

Kim says I'm excited to have the opportunity to get more involved in
the DSpace project, and would like to thank the team for their offer.

 

If you are attending Open Repositories 2009 make sure you meet Kim and
say hello!

 

Best wishes,
