--- title: "September, 2018" date: 2018-09-02T09:55:54+03:00 author: "Alan Orth" tags: ["Notes"] --- ## 2018-09-02 - New [PostgreSQL JDBC driver version 42.2.5](https://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/changelog.html#version_42.2.5) - I'll update the DSpace role in our [Ansible infrastructure playbooks](https://github.com/ilri/rmg-ansible-public) and run the updated playbooks on CGSpace and DSpace Test - Also, I'll re-run the `postgresql` tasks because the custom PostgreSQL variables are dynamic according to the system's RAM, and we never re-ran them after migrating to larger Linodes last month - I'm testing the new DSpace 5.8 branch in my Ubuntu 18.04 environment and I'm getting those autowire errors in Tomcat 8.5.30 again: ``` 02-Sep-2018 11:18:52.678 SEVERE [localhost-startStop-1] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class [org.dspace.servicemanager.servlet.DSpaceKernelServletContextListener] java.lang.RuntimeException: Failure during filter init: Failed to startup the DSpace Service Manager: failure starting up spring service manager: Error creating bean with name 'conversionService' defined in file [/home/dspacetest.cgiar.org/config/spring/xmlui/spring-dspace-addon-cua-services.xml]: Cannot create inner bean 'com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$ColumnsConverter#4c5d5a2' of type [com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$ColumnsConverter] while setting bean property 'converters' with key [1]; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$ColumnsConverter#4c5d5a2': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$FilterConverter com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$ColumnsConverter.filterConverter; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No matching bean of type [com.atmire.app.xmlui.aspect.statistics.mostpopular.MostPopularConfig$FilterConverter] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Dependency annotations: ``` - Full log here: https://gist.github.com/alanorth/1e4ae567b853fea9d9dbf1a030ecd8c2 - XMLUI fails to load, but the REST, SOLR, JSPUI, etc work - The old `5_x-prod-dspace-5.5` branch does work in Ubuntu 18.04 with Tomcat 8.5.30-1ubuntu1.4, however! - And the `5_x-prod` DSpace 5.8 branch does work in Tomcat 8.5.x on my Arch Linux laptop... - I'm not sure where the issue is then! ## 2018-09-03 - Abenet says she's getting three emails about periodic statistics reports every day since the DSpace 5.8 upgrade last week - They are from the CUA module - Two of them have "no data" and one has a "null" title - The last one is a report of the top downloaded items, and includes a graph - She will try to click the "Unsubscribe" link in the first two to see if it works, otherwise we should contact Atmire - The only one she remembers subscribing to is the top downloads one ## 2018-09-04 - I'm looking over the latest round of IITA records from Sisay: [Mercy1806_August_29](https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/handle/10568/104230) - All fields are split with multiple columns like `cg.authorship.types` and `cg.authorship.types[]` - This makes it super annoying to do the checks and cleanup, so I will merge them (also time consuming) - Five items had `dc.date.issued` values like `2013-5` so I corrected them to be `2013-05` - Several metadata fields had values with newlines in them (even in some titles!), which I fixed by trimming the consecutive whitespaces in Open Refine - Many (91!) items from before 2011 are indicated as having a CRP, but CRPs didn't exist then so this is impossible - I got all items that were from 2011 and onwards using a custom facet with this GREL on the `dc.date.issued` column: `isNotNull(value.match(/201[1-8].*/))` and then blanking their CRPs - Some affiliations with only one separator (|) for multiple values - I replaced smart quotes like `’` with plain ones - Some inconsistencies in `cg.subject.iita` like COWPEA and COWPEAS, and YAM and YAMS, etc, as well as some spelling mistakes like IMPACT ASSESSMENTN - Some values in the `dc.identifier.isbn` are actually ISSNs so I moved them to the `dc.identifier.issn` column - I found one invalid ISSN using a custom text facet with the regex from the [ISSN page on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Serial_Number#Code_format): `isNotBlank(value.match(/^\d{4}-\d{3}[\dxX]$/))` - One invalid value for `dc.type` - Abenet says she hasn't received any more subscription emails from the CUA module since she unsubscribed yesterday, so I think we don't need create an issue on Atmire's bug tracker anymore ## 2018-09-10 - Playing with [strest](https://github.com/eykhagen/strest) to test the DSpace REST API programatically - For example, given this `test.yaml`: ``` version: 1 requests: test: method: GET url: https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/rest/test validate: raw: "REST api is running." login: url: https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/rest/login method: POST data: json: {"email":"test@dspace","password":"thepass"} status: url: https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/rest/status method: GET headers: rest-dspace-token: Value(login) logout: url: https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/rest/logout method: POST headers: rest-dspace-token: Value(login) # vim: set sw=2 ts=2: ``` - Works pretty well, though the DSpace `logout` always returns an HTTP 415 error for some reason - We could eventually use this to test sanity of the API for creating collections etc - A user is getting an error in her workflow: ``` 2018-09-10 07:26:35,551 ERROR org.dspace.submit.step.CompleteStep @ Caught exception in submission step: org.dspace.authorize.AuthorizeException: Authorization denied for action WORKFLOW_STEP_1 on COLLECTION:2 by user 3819 ``` - Seems to be during submit step, because it's workflow step 1...? - Move some top-level CRP communities to be below the new [CGIAR Research Programs and Platforms](https://cgspace.cgiar.org/handle/10568/97114) community: ``` $ dspace community-filiator --set -p 10568/97114 -c 10568/51670 $ dspace community-filiator --set -p 10568/97114 -c 10568/35409 $ dspace community-filiator --set -p 10568/97114 -c 10568/3112 ``` - Valerio contacted me to point out some issues with metadata on CGSpace, which I corrected in PostgreSQL: ``` update metadatavalue set text_value='ISI Journal' where resource_type_id=2 and metadata_field_id=226 and text_value='ISI Juornal'; UPDATE 1 update metadatavalue set text_value='ISI Journal' where resource_type_id=2 and metadata_field_id=226 and text_value='ISI journal'; UPDATE 23 update metadatavalue set text_value='ISI Journal' where resource_type_id=2 and metadata_field_id=226 and text_value='YES'; UPDATE 1 delete from metadatavalue where resource_type_id=2 and metadata_field_id=226 and text_value='NO'; DELETE 17 update metadatavalue set text_value='ISI Journal' where resource_type_id=2 and metadata_field_id=226 and text_value='ISI'; UPDATE 15 ``` - Start working on adding metadata for access and usage rights that we started earlier in 2018 (and also in 2017) - The current `cg.identifier.status` field will become "Access rights" and `dc.rights` will become "Usage rights" - I have some work in progress on the [`5_x-rights` branch](https://github.com/alanorth/DSpace/tree/5_x-rights)
