  • Looking at issues with author authorities on CGSpace
  • For some reason we still have the index-lucene-update 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
  • 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

2016-03-07

  • Troubleshooting the issues with the slew of commits for Atmire modules in #182
  • Their changes on 5_x-dev branch work, but it is messy as hell with merge commits and old branch base
  • When I rebase their branch on the latest 5_x-prod I get blank white pages
  • I identified one commit that causes the issue and let them know
  • Restart DSpace Test, as it seems to have crashed after Sisay tried to import some CSV or zip or something:
Exception in thread "Lucene Merge Thread #19" org.apache.lucene.index.MergePolicy$MergeException: java.io.IOException: No space left on device

2016-03-08

  • Add a few new filters to Atmire's Listings and Reports module (#180)
  • We had also wanted to add a few to the Content and Usage module but I have to ask the editors which ones they were

2016-03-10

  • Disable the lucene cron job on CGSpace as it shouldn't be needed anymore
  • Discuss ORCiD and duplicate authors on Yammer
  • Request new documentation for Atmire CUA and L&R modules, as ours are from 2013
  • Walk Sisay through some data cleaning workflows in OpenRefine
  • Start cleaning up the configuration for Atmire's CUA module (#184)
  • It is very messed up because some labels are incorrect, fields are missing, etc

Mixed up label in Atmire CUA

  • Update documentation for Atmire modules

2016-03-11

  • As I was looking at the CUA config I realized our Discovery config is all messed up and confusing
  • I've opened an issue to track some of that work (#186)
  • I did some major cleanup work on Discovery and XMLUI stuff related to the dc.type indexes (#187)
  • We had been confusing dc.type (a Dublin Core value) with dc.type.output (a value we invented) for a few years and it had permeated all aspects of our data, indexes, item displays, etc.
  • There is still some more work to be done to remove references to old outputtype and output

2016-03-14

  • Fix some items that had invalid dates (I noticed them in the log during a re-indexing)
  • Reset search.index.* to the default, as it is only used by Lucene (deprecated by Discovery in DSpace 5.x): #188
  • Make titles in Discovery and Browse by more consistent (singular, sentence case, etc)
