Hi there,

I am somewhat new to the application. We currently have harvesting setup for our repository using oai_etdms and received an error report from the organization harvesting the records, where there were spaces in the file name. I was asked to update the metadata and I did; but when the harvest was run again, the link in the record was not updated so the space is still appearing. I need some assistance in figuring out what I am supposed to change so that the bitstream URL is correct. Here is an example of a record:https://ir.library.dc-uoit.ca/dspace-oai/request?verb=ListRecords&resumptionToken=MTo3MDB8Mjpjb2xfMTAxNTVfNXwzOnw0Onw1Om9haV9kYw==. I am hoping that someone can assist me as I am unclear how to do that. The only other alternative that I can logically think of is the delete the existing entry and recreate the record. I would prefer not to do that because there are more than 100 records.

Thank you,
Marcia

Hi Marcia,

 

Run “dspace oai import” from the command-line (as the DSpace software owner) to update the records used by OAI.

 

After that run “dspace oai clean-cache” just to be sure the cache is cleared.

Thanks, Sean. Is there any other way to do it? I dont have access to the server so I cant really run commands.

Hi Marcia,

 

It’s best if you get a system administrator to schedule a daily cron task on that server:

I don’t know how to initiate it from the user interface.
