first run issue dspace 10.1

[bens...@gmail.com]

fresh install of 10.1 and the page does not load. On the server side when running node ./dist/server/main.js it says (when loading the page) I get

No _links section found at http://dspacedev.library.uvic.ca/server/api/discover/search

So this error above maybe because of http, it should be https

my configs are:
config.yml has
rest:
  ssl: true
  host: dspacedev.library.uvic.ca
  port: 443
  nameSpace: /server
 
 
local.cfg has
dspace.server.url = https://dspacedev.library.uvic.ca/server


runnig  npm run test:rest shows
 test:rest
> ts-node -r tsconfig-paths/register --project ./tsconfig.ts-node.json scripts/test-rest.ts

"dspaceServer" property matches UI's "rest" config? true
Does "/api" endpoint have HAL links ("_links" section)? true

Any ideas?

Hi,

Take a look at the "Common Installation Issues" section at the bottom of the DSpace 10 install guide.  There's some tips on how to go about solving that error here:

https://wiki.lyrasis.org/spaces/DSDOC10x/pages/408944708/Installing+DSpace#InstallingDSpace-%22No_linkssectionfoundat...%22errorfromUserInterface

There's not a single cause, so you may have to step through the tips in that section of the page.  But, hopefully one of those tips will help you get it fixed.

Hi ,

I just want to say that the AI is a your good friend when facing issues in DSpace. You can simply create a project inside any AI platform and provide DSpace wiki documentation and github codes as your reference.  

Cheers,

Gary

still working on this but I thought I would add more info. The server(both front and back) are behind a load balancer. The load balancer takes the https requests and forwards them to http (apache port 80)

The interesting thing is when I call https://dspacedev.library.uvic.ca/server/api

it shows the links and they are all https://dspacedev.library.uvic.ca.... except self.

self is:

href "http://dspacedev.library.uvic.ca/server/api"

So this is the problem I a working on now.

Hi,

This new error regarding the links becoming HTTP sounds a lot like this other "Common Installation Issue".  Again, this is at the bottom of the installation guide:

https://wiki.lyrasis.org/spaces/DSDOC10x/pages/408944708/Installing+DSpace#InstallingDSpace-MyRESTAPIisrunningunderHTTPS%2Cbutsomeofits%22link%22URLsareswitchingtoHTTP

The solution may be to set "X-Forwarded-Proto: https" in your proxy (usually either Apache HTTPD or Nginx).
