2016-11-01 Add dc.type to the output options for Atmire’s Listings and Reports module (#286) 2016-11-02 Migrate DSpace Test to DSpace 5.5 (notes Run all updates on DSpace Test and reboot the server Looks like the OAI bug from DSpace 5.1 that caused validation at Base Search to fail is now fixed and DSpace Test passes validation! (#63) Indexing Discovery on DSpace Test took 332 minutes, which is like five times as long as it usually takes At the end it appeared to finish correctly but there were lots of errors right after it finished: 2016-11-02 15:09:48,578 INFO com.
2016-10-03 Testing adding ORCIDs to a CSV file for a single item to see if the author orders get messed up Need to test the following scenarios to see how author order is affected: ORCIDs only ORCIDs plus normal authors I exported a random item’s metadata as CSV, deleted all columns except id and collection, and made a new coloum called ORCID:dc.contributor.author with the following random ORCIDs from the ORCID registry: 0000-0002-6115-0956||0000-0002-3812-8793||0000-0001-7462-405X Hmm, with the dc.

<li>Add <code>dc.description.sponsorship</code> to Discovery sidebar facets and make investors clickable in item view (<ahref="https://github.com/ilri/DSpace/issues/232">#232</a>)</li>
<li>I think this query should find and replace all authors that have “,” at the end of their names:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>dspacetest=# update metadatavalue set text_value = regexp_replace(text_value, '(^.+?),$', '\1') where metadata_field_id=3 and resource_type_id=2 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
UPDATE 95
dspacetest=# select text_value from metadatavalue where metadata_field_id=3 and resource_type_id=2 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
text_value
------------
(0 rows)
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>In this case the select query was showing 95 results before the update</li>
<li>Experimenting with IFPRI OAI (we want to harvest their publications)</li>
<li>After reading the <ahref="https://www.oclc.org/support/services/contentdm/help/server-admin-help/oai-support.en.html">ContentDM documentation</a> I found IFPRI’s OAI endpoint: <ahref="http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php">http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php</a></li>
<li>After reading the <ahref="https://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotocol.html">OAI documentation</a> and testing with an <ahref="http://validator.oaipmh.com/">OAI validator</a> I found out how to get their publications</li>
<li>This is their publications set: <ahref="http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php?verb=ListRecords&from=2016-01-01&set=p15738coll2&metadataPrefix=oai_dc">http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php?verb=ListRecords&from=2016-01-01&set=p15738coll2&metadataPrefix=oai_dc</a></li>
<li>You can see the others by using the OAI <code>ListSets</code> verb: <ahref="http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php?verb=ListSets">http://ebrary.ifpri.org/oai/oai.php?verb=ListSets</a></li>
<li>Working on second phase of metadata migration, looks like this will work for moving CPWF-specific data in <code>dc.identifier.fund</code> to <code>cg.identifier.cpwfproject</code> and then the rest to <code>dc.description.sponsorship</code></li>
<li>Looking at log file use on CGSpace and notice that we need to work on our cron setup a bit</li>
<li>We are backing up all logs in the log folder, including useless stuff like solr, cocoon, handle-plugin, etc</li>
<li>After running DSpace for over five years I’ve never needed to look in any other log file than dspace.log, leave alone one from last year!</li>
<li>This will save us a few gigs of backup space we’re paying for on S3</li>
<li>Also, I noticed the <code>checker</code> log has some errors we should pay attention to:</li>
</ul>

<li>Looking at issues with author authorities on CGSpace</li>
<li>For some reason we still have the <code>index-lucene-update</code> cron job active on CGSpace, but I’m pretty sure we don’t need it as of the latest few versions of Atmire’s Listings and Reports module</li>
<li>Reinstall my local (Mac OS X) DSpace stack with Tomcat 7, PostgreSQL 9.3, and Java JDK 1.7 to match environment on CGSpace server</li>
