Hi Jeremy, I'm definitely going to put a support ticket in for you then. The tech folks can help troubleshoot what's going on overall. You'll see another message about that from me directly in a minute. (And it'd be great if you'd post back to the list when it's resolved.) Christine Christine

Hi George, Which version of ArchivesSpace is this in? As I don't think I've heard of this type of situation and no one else has weighed in yet, I'm thinking this might work better as a tech support ticket to figure out the cause. I'm creating one for you and you'll see another message about tha

+1 on this... I am getting this index loop as well. I am also not able to view any details of my collections and I am not familiar enough with the program to know which is causing the other or if these issues are independent of each other. jeremy From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyrali

Hey Suzanne, The reports team has been working on creating a data dictionary for the ArchivesSpace database. I think adding the corresponding PUI terms would be a great enhancement to the data dictionary. Carolyn Runyon is the head of the reports team, so you might want to touch base with her.

Hi Joshua, I think your issue may be different than Ron's. Ron's appears to have been caused by orphaned instances and archival objects in the database. Earlier versions of ArchivesSpace ignored these during indexing, but 2.1 is more finicky about that. See https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/b

Yes, Trevor that would be great! Mark, I’ll look into whether we can try tweaking that xml_cleaner.rb file. That scenario you describe below is exactly what’s happening for us—although I should mention that we can still export valid EAD. For the AT&T example (which is in a Separated Materials n

Trevor, That would be fantastic! Benn, For your PDF error, I think that might be caused by a slightly different issue. The new PUI “Print to PDF” process converts that ArchivesSpace JSON record to HTML and then converts that HTML into a PDF file. So, it doesn’t use the same JSON --> EAD

2017-09-22 Thread Trevor Thornton
The logic for converting ampersands in the EAD exporter is to only convert them if they are immediately followed by a space, otherwise they are assumed to be an entity. This is part of the process of sanitizing mixed content, which is actually applied to most fields. However, the ampersand conversi

Dave, Benn: Another important point here is that the ASpace staff interface attempts to handle both “ & “ and “ & “. Those spaces are (quite unfortunately) important here. & is a special HTML and XML entity reference for the ampersand character. A nice, short overview is provided here: htt

Hi Benn, This is a recurring issue I hit over both Harvard and Smith’s collections – it’s a consequence of ASpace not really having a distinction between mixed content and plaintext content. Unfortunately, there isn’t really a good solution. The best solution as far as I’ve been able to figur
