[Dspace-tech] Dspace + XPDF problem - Urgent

[Hernan Carvajal Briceño]

Hi,

I've installed Dspace on a Linux Centos 6.4 machine, with an 64 bit Intel Xeon CPU X7350  @ 2.93GHz

When I try to create the thumbnails using XPDF, I'm getting the following error message:

[root@dspace-d1 log]# /usr/share/dspace/bin/dspace filter-media

Updating search index:

I've reviewed the permissions of the xpdf folder, and it's fine.

May be is a problem with java? I really don't know. I've installed everything several times from scratch, updating the versions of the software, but the problem persists. The list of the software I tried is this:

apache-ant-1.9.2-bin.tar.gz
apache-maven-3.1.1-bin.tar.gz
apache-tomcat-7.0.47.tar.gz
dspace-3.2-src-release.tar.gz
jai_core-1.1.2_01.jar
jai-core-1.1.3.jar
jai_imageio-1.0_01.jar
jai_imageio-1_0_01-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin
jai_imageio-1_0_01-lib-linux-i586-jre.bin
jai_imageio_1_1.jar
jai_imageio-1_1-lib-linux-amd64-jdk.bin
jai_imageio-1_1-lib-linux-amd64-jre.bin
jai_imageio_linux-amd64.jar
jai.txt.txt
jdk-7u45-linux-i586.rpm
jdk-7u45-linux-x64.rpm
pgdg-centos-8.4-3.noarch.rpm
xpdf-3.02pl5-linux.tar.gz

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance to any help.

Best regards.

Why is it looking for xpdf in /usr/share ??

Try the "whereis" command to find out where xpdf actually is.

Normally i would be /usr/bin.

Also what paths do you have set in /etc/environment?

Cheers

Thank you very much Hilton.

You solved my problem!!!

In the file dspace.cfg this should be the path to xpdf:

xpdf.path.pdftotext = /usr/bin/pdftotext
xpdf.path.pdftoppm = /usr/bin/pdftoppm
xpdf.path.pdfinfo = /usr/bin/pdfinfo

Thanks again.
