[Dspace-tech] Generating report on list of items in DSpace
I would like to be able to generate a listing of the titles and authors of items archived within a specified period, or of items archived by a specific user. I can't seem to find any options for this. Is there some way to do this in DSpace? I am working with 1.6.2 JSPUI.

[Dspace-tech] Generating reports from Dspace JSPUI
Hi, I am using DSpace 1.6.2 JSPUI. Is there some way to get reports from DSpace other than through the Statistics option? For example, I would like to be able to generate a listing of the titles and authors of items archived within a specified period, or of items archived by a specific user. Any suggestions?

[Dspace-tech] Moving data from one instance to another Dspace 1.6.2
Hi all, I need to move a significant size collection from one DSpace server to another. I have gone through the DSpace 1.6.2 manual and googled quite a bit on this, and I have since a variety of discussions about how to do it and some of the problems. I am still not clear however, and hope that someone can give me a few specific answers. The two instances are on different Linux versions (from Ubuntu to Centos) and different versions of Postgresql (from 8.4 to 8.1 - long story). I have used the Export (Migrate) Collection option in DSpace which has generated a zip file with the requisite information. I assume I now upload this to the new server, unzip it an appropriate location and then run the dsrun command with the appropriate options. Could someone confirm and give me the specific switches/options for the dsrun in this case? Also, is there options that can be used with the dsrun to export and import only the metadata but not bitstreams for a collection? I have tried using the Export Metadata option on the first server and and then the Import Metadata option on the second instance but that keeps failing with an unknown error.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving data from one instance to another Dspace 1.6.2
Thank you Stuart, Panyarak and Hilton for responding. The use of the import command as Stuart suggested seems to have worked. Later, I may experiment with the other methods suggested , but for now the users seem happy. Stuart - the only message I got when I tried to do the metadata import from the csv file that I had exported as An unknown error has occurred Regards Stephen From: Stuart Lewis s.le...@auckland.ac.nz To: Btri Consulting btr_...@yahoo.com Cc: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Mon, February 28, 2011 2:06:09 PM Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving data from one instance to another Dspace 1.6.2 Hi Stephen, I have used the Export (Migrate) Collection option in DSpace which has generated a zip file with the requisite information.

Re: [Dspace-tech] JSPUI metadata and iput customization
Hello Claudia, Thanks for your response. With regard to (a), is there any documentation you can point me to that might help me with this customization? With regard to (b), I have already successfully customized and used the collection-specific input form. Where I have the problem is in editing the metadata for an item after it has been submitted. The Edit Item uses the default metadata form and not my customized input form. I wanted to know whether there was a way to get the Edit to use a customized form.

[Dspace-tech] Using URL instead
Dear DSpace team, A response to an earlier question from us confirmed that DSpace can be configured to allow entries with metadata information only, but no file upload. We would also like to know: Is it possible to configure DSpace to enter either a text string or a URL as part of an entry? This is to deal with situations where the file is not available for upload. It is either a physical document available at a location to be specified, or it can be accessed from a remote server via a URL. What the client is aiming to do is to have DSpace function as a front-end to a combination of physical and digital document collections maintained by member organizations.
