Importing EAD xml gives 500 | Internal Server Error | Exception Unknown schema or import format: ""

[simon.alfr...@gmail.com]

Dear AtoM group,

I am currently trying out AtoM installed on my local Ubuntu 14.04 laptop having followed installation instructions to the letter. I work at a government archive in Sweden, and we are exploring replacing our current archival description software with AtoM.

When I try to import a EAD xml-file exported from our current archival description software Visual Arkiv (please find it attached - there is nothing confidential in it) I get the  error message (with debug mode enabled) pasted below. I have validated the xml with w3c's validator, with no problems.

500 | Internal Server Error | Exception

Unknown schema or import format: ""

Sorry, forgot to attach file!

Hi Simon

I think you have to refer to the EAD.dtd rather than a proprietary XSD:

<!DOCTYPE ead PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-931666-00-8//DTD ead.dtd (Encoded Archival Description (EAD) Version 2002)//EN" "http://lcweb2.loc.gov/xmlcommon/dtds/ead2002/ead.dtd">

Best,

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

I see. I tried replacing the line in my file mentioning XSD (ead grp) with the one you supplied, was that the right thing to do? It says the import was completed, but I get this error now anyhow, and now button to view archival description:

Warnings were encountered:

libxml error 5 on line 19 in input file: Extra content at the end of the document

libxml error 5 on line 19 in input file: Extra content at the end of the document

libxml error 531 on line 4 in input file: root and DTD name do not match 'eadheader' and 'ead'

[Andreas Nef]

Hi again

I think you have to modify your EAD so that it validates for the generic DTD that AtoM supports and that is referenced by the before mentioned DOCTYPE declaration. I just did a quick check and it seems that the <eadgrp> does not work in this context. You would have to split your example into separate EAD files, each having the <ead> element as root element (see the example attached).

Kind regards,

Andreas

Hi,

Thanks, I tried importing the one you supplied me with, and it imports without trouble! I will try to split up the file like you suggested. Thanks alot for your help!

Simon

[simon.alfr...@gmail.com]

Hello again, I have now written a perl script to split the files and add the xml version tag and the dtd tag to each resulting file. Each one can then be imported into AtoM. I'll post it below for the benefit of anyone else who would like to export from Visual Arkiv to AtoM:

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "\n\n## Välkommen till VisualArkiv-till-AtoM-EADxml-manglaren v.1.0 ##\n\n Välj xml-fil att splitta: "; ## här stoppar man in xmlfilen som genererats av Visual, och sen chompar etc.

$file=<>; #Läs in filnamn, välj alltså xml-filen du genererat i Visual Arkiv 6.2 genom att "exportera till EAD (ARKIS)"

print "\n\n Du valde $file";
chomp $file;

open(FI,$file) or die "Kunde ej öppna input-filen";

$cur=0; # För att räkna output-filerna

open(FO,">$file" . "-part.$cur.xml") or die;    # Öppna första output-filen och döp den efter input

while(<FI>)                                        # Loopa igenom varje linje i inputfilen
{
    print FO $_;        ## skriver till output den innevarande linjen
    if(/^\s*<\/ead>/)     ## loopar tills den stöter på </ead>, då ska den stänga och börja ny fil
    {
        close(FO);
        $cur++;
        open(FO,">$file" . "-part.$cur.xml") or die; ## öppnar här ny fil för nästa iteration av loopen
        ## nedan lägger jag till doctypen till varje output-fil, förutom den första (eftersom den öppnas utanför loopen)
        print FO '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>'. "\n" .'<!DOCTYPE ead PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-931666-00-8//DTD ead.dtd (Encoded Archival Description (EAD) Version 2002)//EN" "http://lcweb2.loc.gov/xmlcommon/dtds/ead2002/ead.dtd">'. "\n";
        print "Genererat $file" . "-part.$cur.xml\n";
       
    }
}
print "$cur filer har skapats.\n\n";
close(FO);

Oh, I intended to ask one more question, is there a way to import many EAD xml-files at once into AtoM?

Thanks,
Simon

Hi Simon,

If you have access to the command line, you can perform bulk imports and exports of EAD files from there. For import, see:

• https://www.accesstomemory.org/docs/2.2/admin-manual/maintenance/cli-tools/#bulk-import-of-xml-files

Let us know if you have further questions!
