DSpace 7.6.2 - An error occurred while creating this process

[Diego Brice]

Hello everyone.

I have DSpace 7.6.2 installed on an Ubuntu 20 server. I had no problems installing it, and all the features seem to work: login, indexing, searching, importing SAF, etc. I can also connect to the HAL browser.

The incident is related to two particular features:

1- Modify access control to a collection

2- The same situation when requesting a copy using the User Interface.

Checking the dspace.log file, I see these lines:

java.io.IOException: No such file or directory

What file is missing?

Thanks in advance.

Just to add more context, after installing DSpace, I submitted only a couple of documents, and I could execute both processes. Then, I imported 800 documents, and it no longer worked.

It *is* a bit obscure, yes. The name of the file is that long number
inside of 'put(...)' and the path is within the 'assetstore'
directory. The easiest way to know the assetstore directory is to run
'bin/dspace dsprop -property assetstore.dir'.

Files in an assetstore are distributed over a fairly shallow tree of
directories named for successive pairs of digits in their names. So
the path of the file named above, within the assetstore, is
'51/49/79/51497908083867010478381507193054127156'.

See
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Storage+Layer#StorageLayer-BitstreamStore
or `BaseBitStoreService.java` and `DSBitStoreService.java`for the details.

Thanks, Mark. The issue was related to a file access permission in the asset store folder.
