[Dspace-tech] JSPUI customizing author browse text

2011-08-16 Thread Lemann, Alexander Bernard
I am trying to customizing the text on the JSPUI author browse page 
(/browse?type=author ) to mention that users should search for the first few 
characters of an author's last name. It seems that browse.nav.enter modifies 
this text, but unfortunately it modifies the text of all of the browse pages as 
well.

I noticed that there is a property in Messages.Properties, 
jsp.browse.authors.enter which looks promising, but I don't see this property 
referenced in any other files in DSpace.

Is there a way to customize the text on each browse page separately in JSPUI? 
Are there a bunch of unneeded properties still hanging around in 
Messages.properties?

Thanks,
Alex Lemann

 Hi,

  Doing batch changes with a large number of changes will keep your

  when we set the limit to be really high, it appears that nothing will
  happen from the user's browser for 20+ minutes, so I've connected to
  the server from the command line, and noticed that the reindexing task
  was taking a long time, but still running. So you might be safe with
  setting this to a really high number (several thousand), you'll just
  have to have the patience to not disrupt it. But smaller / more
  manageable batch sizes will complete in a reasonable amount of time.
  With this set to 1000 or more, I'm guessing your more likely to run
  into Out-Of-Memory errors
 
 With one of 'my' repositories, when we increased the limit (to 1000 I think),
 completing the changes took so long that the Apache-Tomcat connection
 timed out. This meant that the user saw an error in their browser even
 though the changes actually went through fine. In our case we decided to
 stick with a lower limit to avoid confusion. Though 20 really does feel very
 low.

There are some reports of this working with as many as 1000 items.
http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/Excel-to-Dspace-td3310564.html
Though it seems to be dependent on the amount of RAM available on your server.

Relatedly, does anyone know how safe it is to test higher limit values?  I 
looked at the code to determine whether these batch edits occur within a single 
database transaction, but I didn't see any evidence either way.

Thanks,
Alex Lemann

[Dspace-tech] Allowing users to edit their own submissions

2011-07-21 Thread Lemann, Alexander Bernard
Is there a way to allow users to edit their own submissions without giving them 
access to edit everything in a collection?  Is there a philosophical or 
technical reason to not allow this?  I guess this would be sort of like setting 
DEFAULT_ITEM_WRITE to the user who is submitting.

Thanks,
Alex Lemann

Re: [Dspace-tech] restricting users to a specific collection

2011-05-10 Thread Lemann, Alexander Bernard
You can do bulk updates to item and bitstream policies by going to Administer 
- Authorization - Advanced / Item Wildcard Policy Admin Tool.  You can get 
more help on the online help on that page. You might want to backup your 
database before bulk updating things.

Subject: RE: [Dspace-tech] restricting users to a specific collection
Are you uploading new bitstreams after you change DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ?  This 
policy only affects the new permissions set on bitstreams when they are 
uploaded.

Subject: [Dspace-tech] restricting users to a specific collection

Hello everybody,

I am using dspace 1.6.2 on windows server 2008.
i am suffering with authorization problem.
I want to restrict access of anonymous users to a specific collection.
I mean that anonymous users cannot download the bitstreams.

For this purpose, i changed the default-bitstreams-read policy of that 
collection from anonymous users to registered users.

But the result is amazing, its bitstreams are still accessible by anonymous 
users.

when i applied the same policy at item level, it worked well.

any suggestions about this?
