Re: [Dspace-tech] Best OS for DSpace
Hello, the best one is the one you want. Your favorite OS is good choice because you probably know it very well so you can quickly solve any troubles. Among various OSes we have/had DSpace on several distros (Debian, Mint, Gentoo, Fedora and even Windows 7) without significant troubles - so the choice is yours. I can recommend Debian for production environment, because every version has a quite long support (and version upgrades are not so often).

[Dspace-tech] DSpace scalability (tens of hundreds TBs)
Hello all, I have already posted this to dspace-general, however, without a great effect. I hope it will be better here :-). I have been recently asked the question on DSpace scalability - assume the project: 16 millions of items (bistreams size about 230 TB) increasing by 3 millions items (86 TB) per year Is DSpace able to handle this? My answer was I don't know. Is anyone working with such big loads of data? What is your opinion?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Using DRI during processing mets.xml
So, I played with it a bit today, however, using Xinclude (so during XSL traformation use xi:include ... together with xpointer and setting up map:transform type=xinclude/ into sitemap.xmap) leads to the same behaviour as before (= weird timeouting).

[Dspace-tech] Using DRI during processing mets.xml
Hi all, I have a trouble with using xpath document($pathtodri). Assume we have e template which process a mets.xml. Inside such template I want to use some data from a DRI document. Using cocoon://path_to_DRI_doc causes weird behaviour - timeouting without an end (processor, network as well as disk do almost nothing). Anyone alse has the same or similar experience?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Using DRI during processing mets.xml
Your example is useful only in certain context (there is a trouble with variable visibility). The second solution is pass the neccessary DRI data as a paramater. However, it is not so elegant as use the DRI directly (I mean the code is more complicated passing it as a parameter).

Meanwhile, I wanted to share with you the workaround I use - while processing DIM, save the value, element or tree fragment you need to a variable. Then access the variable it while processing another document. E.g.

So, that's not the cause here. Could you explain where you downloaded that 1.6.2 release from? Is your copy downloaded from Sourceforge? Is it accessed from GitHub? Have you modified it in any way, or is it an out-of-the-box release? Just trying to narrow down what the issues could be. There's definitely something odd going on, but it shouldn't have to do with the Maven central repository. It's much more likely that something is wrong or misconfigured in the 1.6.2 release you've downloaded. Finally, did Maven provide any more details to that error message?

ps ax | grep tomcat is not very helpful - sometimes the Tomcat process is running but Tomcat doesn't respond. So my watch script: I check selected URL directly using wget URL and examine the downloaded document for certain content (simple regexp matching). If it doesn't match then I try to download and check it again. If it doesn't match again then I restart Tomcat. The script watch is executed via cron every 2 minutes. And if restart is needed I'm informed via e-mail. Just for information - this kind of restart is raised once or twice a week.

[Dspace-tech] XHTML/XML entities (ampersand) encoded twice in XMLUI
Hi all, I've found interesting bug in XMLUI - searching in the archives has told me that some users found it before me (however, without any suitable response). The trouble is that the ampersand character is always translated into XML amp; in XMLUI in case this ampersand is stored in any HTML form (like introductory text for community/collection). This behaviour could be quite embarassing - assume we want to have a well-formed XHTML so there is for example: iHewletamp;Packard/i: a href=http://linkwithparams.org/?param1amp;param2;linkwithparams/a The result in XMLUI is then: iHewletamp;amp;Packard/i a href=http://linkwithparams.org/?param1amp;amp;param2;linkwithparams/a The first line cause only wrong diplayed text while the link on the second line is malfunctional (the params are corrupted). The solution could be to ignore entity and store character only (and most of users do so). However, the best (and right) solution is to encode only those ampersands which are not encoded yet... How do you cope with this bug?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Tomcat memory leak warning prevents restarting
Hi, I'm sure that this issue has already been discussed here more than once and as I can remember without any final and useful universal solution (maybe there's not one). I have been fighting with it for years (and still don't know where lies the bug). My solution is to restart Tomcat (via cron) once a day and use a special piece of code to do this - I test if Tomcat is really stopped correctly and if not I kill the Tomcat process (bash script): /opt/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh echo Waiting 45 second for Tomcat shutdown... # This is necessary, because shutting down process can take some time, # 45 second is enough according to my experience sleep 45 RUNNING=`ps ax | grep opt\/tomcat | grep 2048` if [ -z $RUNNING ] then echo Tomcat has been stopped...; else echo Shutdown failure... Trying to do hard kill. PID=`echo $RUNNING | cut -d ' ' -f 1` kill -9 $PID # give system some time to kill it sleep 3 # check it again RUNNING=`ps ax | grep opt\/tomcat | grep 2048` if [ -z $RUNNING ] then echo Tomcat has been killed with -9. else echo Cannot kill Tomcat. Administrator needed! exit 1 fi fi This shutdown Tomcat for sure.

DSpace: version 1.7.1 with XMLUI and Discovery Issues: Prior to my increasing the allotted Catalina RAM and Permgen, Tomcat would stop responding around every 3 days (? number of requests) due to the database pool filling up (cannot get a connection - pool exhausted). I decided to also restart Tomcat every night to prevent this from happening. That's when I encountered the memory leak warnings preventing my restarts.

[Dspace-tech] Shibboleth - user groups
Hi all, I have set up Shibboleth authentication in DSpace and assingning groups according to the affiliation (authentication.shib.role-header) does not work. I have found that getSpecialGroups() from /org/dspace/authenticate/ShibAuthentication.java gets no shibboleth headers. I guess that the trouble lies in Apache config. At first I have tried mod_proxy, then mod_jk and the result is still the same. To get getSpecialGroups() works properly (to sent shib headers) I have to change Apache config slightly to use lazy session for the root (where I have my DSpace installation): Location /shibboleth-login AuthType shibboleth ShibRequireSession On Require valid-user ShibUseHeaders On /Location Location / AuthType shibboleth ShibRequireSession Off ShibUseHeaders on Require shibboleth /Location So this is lazy session configuration. Using this, groups assigning works. But I can't logout - means trying to reach /mydspace cause I'm logged in via Shibboleth without asking what kind of authetication I want. If I was logged in before, my last session is used, if I wasn't there is something I name empty user. It seems, DSpace tests shibboleth header and then assumes somebody is logged in. Removing lazy session config (for the root /) causes Shibboleth works fine except for assigning groups. Has anyone experienced the same troubles? Can you share your Apache config? I have version 1.6.2, also last SP (2.3.1 I think). I have also set up webui.session.invalidate = false. Thanks.

[Dspace-tech] Derived prefix for handles not work
Hi, we have derived prefix for the Handle system. The prefix is 10338.dmlcz. So the handles are like 10338.dmlcz/123. I have just started handle server which gives me handle not found for any handle. I went deep into the code and I have found something wrong. The problematic is MAYBE the method Util.decodeString() in HandlePlugin. I have to stress MAYBE. Because this method returns the handle where all letters are capital - input argument for the method is byte[]. The method simply calls the constructor String(byte[], ...). So maybe the handle server gives bad parameter (I don't wnat to believe that the String constructor is bad). Returned handle looks like this: 10338.DMLCZ/123 Consequently no object is found in database and the resolution does not work (because there's no such handle). I have simple fix for this: Util.decodeString().toLowerCase(); But this is not general solution. If anybody is familiar with Handle.net you can investigate it deeper. I'm using handle.jar which is default in 1.4.2 version of DSpace. cheers Vlastik Vlastimil Krejčíř Library and Information Centre, Institute of Computer Science Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic Email: krejcir (at) ics (dot) muni (dot) cz Phone: +420 549 49 3872 ICQ: 163963217 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Dspace-tech] Where to get the DSpace and Manakin logos
Hi all, I am not sure where to ask - so maybe here :-). Is it possible to download the DSpace logo and Manakin logo in a vector (SVG, EPS, WMF, ...) format? I would like to use them on my poster... The bitmaps that can be found on the web are not enough :-(. Thanks Vlastik - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

[Dspace-tech] Items count for authors
Hi, is it possible to get how many items each author has? I would like to have items count at every author on the /browse-author page. One of the solutions can be to ask DSpace for every author before display the list of them but I worry it can be to slow (and it can cause too big load). Any experiences? thank you Vlastik Vlastimil Krejčíř Library and Information Centre, Institute of Computer Science Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic Email: krejcir (at) ics (dot) muni (dot) cz Phone: +420 549 49 3872 ICQ: 163963217 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Dspace-tech] Sorting issues
Hi all, I have read the summary on sorting issues: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=E1IQ2zI-00077G-SI%40sc8-sf-web23.sourceforge.net If I understand sorting good - titles marked en language are normalized and others are not. Then both of them are sorted and displayed. Am I right? If the previous is true then I am confused about sorting in our DSpace installation. We have about 4500 items in DSpace - many of them are in different languages (english, french, german and czech). So the titles marked en language are normalized and the others are not. So Die Mutter (de) should be sorted near letter D A Mother (en) should be sorted near letter M But there are several items sorted bad and I have definitely no clue why (and why this items). You can look for example there: http://dl.ics.muni.cz:8080/manakin/browse-title?top=dml_cz%2F9047 Why the Použití matematické statistiky v hydrologii is here? Because it is in czech language? Or: http://dl.ics.muni.cz:8080/manakin/browse-title?bottom=dml_cz%2F12638 Why the Eine Klasse entarteter gewöhnlicher Differentialgleichungen und das Kollokationsverfahren zu ihrer Lösung or the Über einige Eigenschaften der Charakteristik der Schraubenenveloppe einer Kegelfläche is here? And the best: http://dl.ics.muni.cz:8080/manakin/browse-title?top=dml_cz%2F12638 Try Next page and it will jump almost at the end of the whole list! Weird. There's something wrong... Does anyone have the same experiences?
