Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 1.4.2 Browse performance issues

Sue, You are right both about the performance of browse in 1.4.2, and the problems that you will have trying to limit the number of rows considered by the query. The real problem with the query is the use of the DISTINCT view (note that the 'where sort_author' part outside of the view in your

Re: [Dspace-tech] [Fwd: How to configure dspace to use a mail server running on ssl ports]

The options in dspace.cfg only allow you to connect to a mail server running on a non-standard port. They do not tell DSpace to make a secure connection to that port. See the link below for more information on using SSL with JavaMail. http://www.javaworld.com/javatips/jw-javatip115.html G Nit

Re: [Dspace-tech] Browse, UTF-8 and sorting in 1.5

Urban, It is done this way, because simply writing UTF-8 to the database tables results in very random sorting (for diacritics). And by random, I mean things like Z with a particular diacritic appearing in the middle of the 'A' entries - that's just broken in any language / locale. By decompos

Re: [Dspace-tech] No browse index for date

Gary, The browse indexes are generated in tables within the database. All the 'metadata' indexes (see dspace.cfg) generate bi_1, bi_2, etc. tables (again, see the comments in dspace.cfg) For the non-metadata indexes, they are just references to the bi_item table, that specify which sort column

Re: [Dspace-tech] index init

Jeffrey, Page 52 is correct. Page 64 is a copy of the old comments from dspace.cfg. The comments and example in dspace.cfg are also correct, and should have guided you away from the erroneous information in p64 of the manual ;) Your configuration should be: webui.browse.index.1 = dateissued:it
