DSpace 7.5 Localhost in citation_pdf_urL

[pierre...@bibl.ulaval.ca]

Bonjour, 

We have noticed that DSpace 7.5 is generating a Google Scholar Meta tag citation_pdf_url containing a localhost adress instead of our official IR address (https://corpus.ulaval.ca).

Example in our repository: https://corpus.ulaval.ca/entities/publication/d86954ab-35a0-4b71-a4fe-03b12f979ac1

Looking at the source code of the page, you should see the HTML TAG: <meta name="citation_pdf_url" content="http://localhost:4000/bitstreams/[...]

We are not sure where to change this. Is it a configuration? Where should we made the change so that DSpace cease to use localhost url for this tag?

Thank you very much for you help!

Best,

Pierre

Hi Pierre,

It's likely that your proxy isn't passing though the repository URL information to the frontend.  This can be done by using X-Forwarded-* HTTP headers.

For instance:

X-Forwarded-Host corpus.ulaval.ca

X-Forwarded-Proto https

Try setting those headers in your proxy (Apache or similar).  That should solve the issue, as DSpace will attempt to detect your deployed URL use it for those "citation_pdf_url" tags.

(I've realized this doesn't seem to be clearly documented, so I'll add some notes about X-Forwarded headers to our SEO guidelines at: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Search+Engine+Optimization)

Tim
