Re: [Dspace-tech] Error with email registration

2009-09-12 Thread Vishal Kakapuri
Have you tried to send a mail using the systems mail command to the
id, you are trying to send mail through your application.
does that work without any issues.

unable to send email to this address (when using Manakin) or
internal error (when using jspui). -- means something is wrong with
some configuration on your system. you should atleast see an error in
the logs.

check the ourput of /var/log/messages too if possible.

regards.

 Good afternoon -
 I am having an odd problem with our DSpace installation on what will be our
 production machine.  The entire installation went like a dream on our test
 bed machine and now I've hit this snag.

 The problem is that when someone attempts to register we get an unable to
 send email to this address (when using Manakin) or internal error (when
 using jspui).    I have looked at the /usr/local/dspace/log/dspace.log file
 and there is nothing in the log that resembles this error (there are
 precious few errors) and I've looked at /usr/share/tomcat5/log/catalina.out
 and there are no reports there either.  Should I be looking in a different
 file?
 Finally here is our setup. RedHat Linux 5 using Tomcat 5.5 with a standard
 install of Dspace.  We have it loaded on two identical machines with the
 same version of RedHat, Tomcat and Dspace.   In both cases sendmail is
 running on both machines because I get nightly reports from the crontab
 emailed to me.   One setup on our internal or Intranet machine works just
 fine.  I register and get the email no problem.  The other machine, our
 production website machine, gives the above mentioned errors.  We are using
 the most recent version of Dspace.   We also have Apache running on both
 machines.

 Any suggestions on where to look for problems would be most helpful.  Oh,
 I've looked through the sendmail logs (maillog) and could not find any
 reference to an error.  But sendmail is a bit of mystery at times.  So,
 again, any suggestions would be most appreciated.

 Thank you.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Searching of text from PDF files

2) pdf is an text -  to be uploaded - metadata filtermedia will try to

 DSpace doesn't include OCR code.

 The full-text extractor (which feeds the indexing) requires actual
 coded-character text in the PDF to work with.  If all you have is a
 bag of bitmaps (such as you often get from scanning paper documents
 into PDF) then they contain nothing useful to extract; you'll need to
 OCR or otherwise recover the character data before ingesting the file
 into DSpace.

Re: [Dspace-tech] help! migration causes slow loading of files

2009-09-10 Thread Vishal Kakapuri
i also tried to access - https://dizzyg.library.vcu.edu/browse-title;

I wanted to know one thing - why do you need https for everything..
even for links to pdf..if they are to be accessed public.

Can't you have something which uses HTTPS only for data transfer pages
or request paremeters sent across.

 Hi All,
 I migrated my database, assetstore  application to a new server this
 morning (after doing a test migration last week)
 All seems great until I click on a pdf (or other file) in a record. The
 server just sits and spins and the file never opens.
 I've migrated to a new linux server with twice the amount of memory, so
 it seems like memory shouldn't be the problem.
 I'm not seeing anything at all in the error logs.
 I'm still running Dspace 1.4.1

 Does anyone have any ideas what may have happened?

 Thanks so much,

Re: [Dspace-tech] Changing DSpace time zone

Better search for the file which updates time information into
database and try modifying the time before insert/update, as for
example in: 
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/GregorianCalendar.html

I am not sure if there would be something that you could set..

 We're going to be using Dspace for time-sensitive submission of files, and

This method in org.dspace.app.webui.util.Authentocate.java is responsible
for logging out the user:
/**

HttpSession session = request.getSession();

  Dear all



 We are working on DSpace 1.4.2  and are experiencing problems with logging
 out from MyDSpace. Although the system indicates that a user is logged out
 it doesn't seem to really log one out. If another person logs in on the same
 PC, the previous user's user id still displays on some of the screens.



 Is anyone else out there having a similar problem and could you help us
 with a solution please?

Re: [Dspace-tech] How do I set the handle to local ?

2008-04-21 Thread Vishal Kakapuri
There could be two things you may need to check:

1) Are you updating the files on the dspace directory.. using ant update
2) check handle table in your dspace database on the new machine and
what are the handles it is showing. Does it still point to the old
one.. If so change that in the table - I mean changing handle id with
123456789 or try re-indexing your database.. using
/dspace/bin/index-all script..

Vishal

 Hi,

 another problem with the 1.2.1 - 1.4 upgrade:

 I am installing the upgrade on another server. I made a fresh environment 
 with new
 versions of Tomcat (5.5) and Postgres (8.1) and copied the whole thing over: 
 dspace
 directory, assetstores, database dump.

 It seems to work pretty well until now, except a few issues that I am slowly 
 staring
 myself blind upon. The first one is  in that previous mail .. the incorrect 
 rendering of
 some characters in the titles, and the other one is this:


 I get an error upon clicking on a displayed entry. I *assume* that this is 
 because it is
 not possible to port the handle over to another machine just like that, and 
 want to at
 least get a fresh start by starting out with the handle set to the default 
 123456789/ .

 But when I change the handle setting in dspace.cnf to 123456789 - nothing 
 changes. It
 keeps generating URL's like

 http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/1892/3409

 and not

 http://lib-ir.lib.sfu.ca:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/3409

 after clicking one of those, dspace.log shows this:

Re: [Dspace-tech] 1.5 install

2008-03-31 Thread Vishal Kakapuri
This in a full installation looks something like this -

dspace= select count(*) from bitstreamformatregistry;
 count
---
73
(1 row)
..

so I would suggest you to do clean_database and then do a
setup_database and finally load_registries step by step.. I understand
that this actually means re-installing the database.. and re-loading
data.
I would have gone for dropping the database itself and restart as in
above lines..

And I also hope that you have mentioned all the diectory related
information correctly in your dspace.sfg file..Anyways this should not
be a problem.
