[Dspace-tech] dspace 1.6.0 rc1 bugs
Hi, After my tests of dspace 1.6.0 rc1, i reported the following bugs : http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-474 http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-475 http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-476 Thank you to people helped me on IRC. Issues 475 and 476 are probably critical for me. I am not sure to be able to use dspace in a production env.

[Dspace-tech] email notification
Hello. I'm using Dspace 1.5.2. Manakin/xmlui on windows server 2003.My problem is that we do not want to use handle server. So far I've managed to change all the links that bothered me including http://handle.net/ manually, but I'm stuck at a link generated by the system in the email send to confirm the acceptance of a submission.

[Dspace-tech] Thumbnail Display
Hi folks, I'm using Dspace to set up an imaging repository, and one of the requirements is that items can be browsed with the thumbnail showing. I think I've carried out the steps, so if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, that would be great. 1. Changed dspace.cfg to the relevant settings to show thumbnails (webui.browse.thumbnail.show = true # max dimensions of the browse/search thumbs. Must be = thumbnail.maxwidth # and thumbnail.maxheight. Only need to be set if required to be smaller than # dimension of thumbnails generated by mediafilter (1.2+) webui.browse.thumbnail.maxheight = 80 webui.browse.thumbnail.maxwidth = 80 # whether to display the thumb against each bitstream (1.2+) # (This configuration is not used by XMLUI. To show thumbnails in the # XMLUI, you just need to create a theme which displays them) webui.item.thumbnail.show = true # where should clicking on a thumbnail from browse/search take the user # Only values currently supported are item and bitstream webui.browse.thumbnail.linkbehaviour = target page type # maximum width and height of generated thumbnails thumbnail.maxwidth 80 thumbnail.maxheight 80) 2.Ran filter-media (locally, from a cmd window, before I attempt this on the test server). 3.Ran the two index processes available in 1.5.2 (index-init and index-update). 4.Restarted Tomcat. Is there anything else I need to do? I have a few .jpg items in there, and nothing changed when I re-entered Dspace!

[Dspace-tech] License submission steps
Hello yet again list I have a question about the License submission steps. We wish to use both the default license and the CC License.

Re: [Dspace-tech] License submission steps
Kevin, Unfortunately, in both the JSPUI and the XMLUI, the CC License and the Default License are part of the same step and therefore cannot be reordered. This is basically a mistake in how this step was implemented initially, and we really should be looking to separate these into two different steps (a CC License step and a normal license step). If you or anyone else out there wishes to take this change on, I think it'd be a worthwhile one. - Tim On 2/4/2010 10:24 AM, Evans, Kevin wrote: Hello yet again list I have a question about the License submission steps.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Set up Search
Hello Lewatle, if you do type in Ideals in Architecture including the quote signs you will search for the complete string and you get a single hit on your instance. Without the quote signs it will search for Ideals [search.operator] in [search.operator] Architecture The default search.operator in dspace.cfg is set to OR, so this will result in ideals OR in OR architecture in is most likely a stop word (haven't checked), so the final search will be ideals OR architecture. You can change this by changing the search.operator to AND, but if you really want the complete literal to be searched (regardless of search operators you nee to use quote signs. Hope that helps Claudia Jürgen Hi all I want know how to manipulate my dspace default search to be able to search a correct or exact search term like if I type Ideals in Architecture http://wiredspace.wits.ac.za/handle/10539/7404 I want to get only matching results but on our dspace we find huge list of results, anyone who knows how to control dspace search may advice in this regard.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 1.5.2 cocoon.log access problems (continued)
Except for the problem that the Tomcat users home directory is /usr/share/tomcat5 which it doesn't have enough permission to create a '.m5' folder in when you run 'mvn package'. Re-configuring the Tomcat home directory will more than likely break Tomcat. Guess you need a dspace user to build dspace with and then run everything under Tomcat after it's built. Or create a '.m5' directory manually with the correct permissions. -Original Message- From: Mark H.

[Dspace-tech] Sloooow submission process in DSpace 1.5.1
Hello, We have been noticing recently that, as our repository grows in size (we currently have approx. 125,000 Items and adding more each week), our online submission process is getting slower and slower and slower. It's gotten so bad that, even if I'm only trying to add more authors to an Item by clicking the Add more button: [cid:image003.jpg@01CAA5C7.FD9229D0] It is taking a really long time (just now it took approximately 20 seconds) for the application to respond with the subsequent screen: [cid:image004.jpg@01CAA5C7.FD9229D0] To make things worse, once the customer clicks on the I grant the license button, the application hangs not just for seconds, but for minutes (I saw one case of 11 minutes recently). Our customers are getting very frustrated with this. Has anyone else had this problem or does anyone have an idea of where DSpace might be getting bogged-down. I looked at the INFO messages in the dspace.log file and there seems to be a whole lot of update_item lines in there while not much seems to be happening on the screen, but I didn't look at the programs in detail. Any help would certainly be appreciated.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Sloooow submission process in DSpace 1.5.1
Hi Sue, (You don't say explicitly, so I'll assume that you are using Postgres) I can't explain why the addition of metadata rows is taking so long - there are a number of factors that could come into play... server getting many / expensive requests, resource contention, postgres needs maintaining (ie. vacuum) or tuning or upgrading, or all three. However, the issue of slow installing (license granting) of items, is quite likely answered in this post: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=9efc26fb-749c-4a67-8481-f1a6ce09b...@gmail.com to put it briefly - the item installation takes on some extra work in browse indexing to ensure that general browse lookups are efficient (you only add an item once, users might issue 100s of browse requests a day). The SQL that makes that calculation is written in it's most efficient form. But you still need the database to be configured properly in order for that operation to be executed in an efficient way. If you are using the default work_mem setting, you can easily save 60% of your installation time - and generally improving the efficiency of the database - by increasing it appropriately.
