Problems with DSpace v6.2 Elsevier API integration

[marco castillo]

Hello, we are trying to integrate DSpace v6.2 Elsevier API, but we have problems to compile DSpace.

First, when the patch is applied to the Installation directory, install only part of the files, the rest is in another route.

Second: once the patch installation path was manually corrected, there is a problem with the compilation (mvn clean package):

root@localhost dspace-6.2-release]# mvn clean package

Does this patch really work with DSpace v6.x?

Dear Marco,

I am having the same problem. I am using Ds 6.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 with OpenJDK 8.

How did you solve this problem?

Best regards..
