Yes, I think this bug might be biting you: https://redmine.hmdc.harvard.edu/issues/2729

I haven't looked at it myself but I believe this is fixed in 3.4...

Hi Philip,

Thanks for the reply. much appreciated, i will go through the handle registration and installation, On another note, although i am not sure but it might be just me or a possible bug in the application that when i try to change the banner and footer in setting/costomization section, the application gets stuck and even if i try to delete the html code in the banner or footer, it doesn't change it. Here are the screenshots, which might give u a better idea-

It shows me an </img> error, but even after adding that tag, it returns me the same error.



and if i try to delete the html code from the banner, it doesn't save the change and returns me the same error even after i click on "save changes" and the application hangs itself and i have to refresh the page it to make it working again. It's kind of a very small but very annoying bug as it doesn't let you change the banner and footer.

Regards,

Shubham

Our official docs on handle.net are here:
http://guides.thedata.org/book/4d-handle-system

Out of the box, IDs will be unique within your DVN installation but
your question is about IDs being *globally* unique, which is exactly
what handle.net offers (for a fee):
http://www.handle.net/service_agreement.html

I believe most (or all?) production installations of DVN are
registered with handle.net but it sounds like at the moment you're
still testing.

I hope this helps,

Phil

Hi Philip,

With some help from Gustavo, i was able to solve it. apparently, you need to update the vdcnetwork and vdc table in the database to null to fix it.

Steps involved in the process were-

1) To change D.V.N. headers and footers:

su postgres

psql dvnDb

UPDATE vdcnetwork set networkPageHeader='', networkPageFooter ='' where id =1;


2) To change the dataverse headers and footers:

su postgres

psql dvnDb

UPDATE vdc set header='', footer ='' where id=1;

The issue is whenever you need to change the headers and footers, you need to manually do it via accessing the dataverse but the good thing is atleast there is a workaround solution for it. cheers.
