- Upgrade CGSpace (linode18) to Ubuntu 18.04:
- Check any packages that have residual configs and purge them:
- # dpkg -l | grep -E ‘^rc’ | awk ‘{print $2}’ | xargs dpkg -P
- Make sure all packages are up to date and the package manager is up to date, then reboot:
# apt update && apt full-upgrade
# apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean
# dpkg -C
# reboot
# dpkg -l > 2019-12-01-linode18-dpkg.txt
# tar czf 2019-12-01-linode18-etc.tar.gz /etc
- Then check all third-party repositories in /etc/apt to see if everything using “xenial” has packages available for “bionic” and then update the sources:
- # sed -i ‘s/xenial/bionic/’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list
- Pause the Uptime Robot monitoring for CGSpace
- Make sure the update manager is installed and do the upgrade:
# apt install update-manager-core
# do-release-upgrade
- After the upgrade finishes, remove Java 11, force the installation of bionic nginx, and reboot the server:
# apt purge openjdk-11-jre-headless
# apt install 'nginx=1.16.1-1~bionic'
# reboot
- After the server comes back up, remove Python virtualenvs that were created with Python 3.5 and re-run certbot to make sure it's working:
# rm -rf /opt/eff.org/certbot/venv/bin/letsencrypt
# rm -rf /opt/ilri/dspace-statistics-api/venv
# /opt/certbot-auto
- Clear Ansible's fact cache and re-run the playbooks to update the system's firewalls, SSH config, etc
- Altmetric finally responded to my question about Dublin Core fields
- They shared a list of fields they use for tracking, but it only mentions HTML meta tags, and not fields considered when harvesting via OAI
- Anyways, there might be some areas we can improve on the HTML meta tags, if I look at one item with a DOI, ISSN, etc I see that we could at least add status (Open Access) and journal title
- I merged a pull request into the
5_x-prod branch to add status and journal title to the XHTML meta tags

- Raise the issue of old, low-quality thumbnails with Peter and the CGSpace team
- I suggested that we move manually uploaded thumbnails from the
ORIGINAL bundle to the THUMBNAIL bundle
- Also replace old thumbnails where an item is available on Slideshare or YouTube because those are easy to get new, high-quality thumbnails for
- Continue testing CG Core v2 implementation on DSpace Test
- Compare the OAI QDC representation of a few items on CGSpace vs DSpace Test:
$ http 'https://cgspace.cgiar.org/oai/request?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=oai:cgspace.cgiar.org:10568/104030' > /tmp/cgspace-104030.xml
$ http 'https://dspacetest.cgiar.org/oai/request?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=oai:cgspace.cgiar.org:10568/104030' > /tmp/dspacetest-104030.xml
- The DSpace Test ones actually now capture the DOI, where the CGSpace doesn't…
- And the DSpace Test one doesn't include review status as
dc.description, but I don't think that's an important field
