  • 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.contributor.author column removed, DSpace doesn't detect any changes
  • With a blank dc.contributor.author column, DSpace wants to remove all non-ORCID authors and add the new ORCID authors
  • I added the disclaimer text to the About page, then added a footer link to the disclaimer's ID, but there is a Bootstrap issue that causes the page content to disappear when using in-page anchors: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/1768

Bootstrap issue with in-page anchors

  • Looks like we'll just have to add the text to the About page (without a link) or add a separate page

  • Start testing cleanups of authors that Peter sent last week
  • Out of 40,000+ rows, Peter had indicated corrections for ~3,200 of them—too many to look through carefully, so I did some basic quality checking:
    • Trim leading/trailing whitespace
    • Find invalid characters
    • Cluster values to merge obvious authors
  • That left us with 3,180 valid corrections and 3 deletions:
$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i authors-fix-3180.csv -f dc.contributor.author -t correct -m 3 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p fuuu
$ ./delete-metadata-values.py -i authors-delete-3.csv -f dc.contributor.author -m 3 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p fuuu
  • Remove old about page (#284)
  • CGSpace crashed a few times today
  • Generate list of unique authors in CCAFS collections:
dspacetest=# \copy (select distinct text_value, count(*) as count from metadatavalue where metadata_field_id = (select metadata_field_id from metadatafieldregistry where element = 'contributor' and qualifier = 'author') AND resource_type_id = 2 AND resource_id IN (select item_id from collection2item where collection_id IN (select resource_id from handle where handle in ('10568/32729', '10568/5472', '10568/5473', '10568/10288', '10568/70974', '10568/3547', '10568/3549', '10568/3531','10568/16890','10568/5470','10568/3546', '10568/36024', '10568/66581', '10568/21789', '10568/5469', '10568/5468', '10568/3548', '10568/71053', '10568/25167'))) group by text_value order by count desc) to /tmp/ccafs-authors.csv with csv;

  • Work on more infrastructure cleanups for Ansible DSpace role
  • Clean up Let's Encrypt plumbing and submit pull request for rmg-ansible-public (#60)

  • Nice! DSpace Test (linode02) is now having java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space errors...
  • Heap space is 2048m, and we have 5GB of RAM being used for OS cache (Solr!) so let's just bump the memory to 3072m
  • Magdalena from CCAFS asked why the colors in the thumbnails for these two items look different, even though they are the same in the PDF itself

CMYK vs sRGB colors

  • Turns out the first PDF was exported from InDesign using CMYK and the second one was using sRGB
  • Run all system updates on DSpace Test and reboot it

2016-10-08

  • Re-deploy CGSpace with latest changes from late September and early October
  • Run fixes for ILRI subjects and delete blank metadata values:
dspace=# delete from metadatavalue where resource_type_id=2 and text_value='';
DELETE 11
  • Run all system updates and reboot CGSpace
  • Delete ten gigs of old 2015 Tomcat logs that never got rotated (WTF?):
root@linode01:~# ls -lh /var/log/tomcat7/localhost_access_log.2015* | wc -l
47
  • Delete 2GB cron-filter-media.log file, as it is just a log from a cron job and it doesn't get rotated like normal log files (almost a year now maybe)
