Webapp deployment error in Dspace 7 beta 5

[Mateo Palos]

Hello, all,

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue that occurs when I try to run the Dspace 7 beta 5 backend. I was able to run the beta 4 with similar configs, so I'm wondering what might be going on here.

We're running CentOS 8 and Tomcat 9.0.39. Here's the error information we pulled from the catalina logs:

This is what I would check first. It should be defined near the
bottom of 'config/spring/api/pubmed-integration.xml'.
'dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/importer/external/service/components/AbstractRemoteMetadataSource.java'
requests to have it injected via its constructor, and Spring is trying
to instantiate it in order to do that.

Thanks, Mark. I do see that bean defined in that file, so I'm not sure what to make of that error.

Has anyone had any success disabling this integration, or at least bypassing this check for startup? I tried commenting out the integration in external-services.xml, but that just yielded a similar error to the original NoSuchBeanDefinitionException error.

Mateo,

It sounds like something is "invalid" in your `config/spring/` directory in general....it could be that you have a config or two from Beta 4 that are now conflicting with your attempt to install Beta 5 over Beta 4.

You might simply try removing that entire 'config/spring/' directory, and then reinstalling Beta 5 (via ant update), which should recreate that folder with the Beta 5 expected configurations.

I will note this error doesn't appear in a fresh install of Beta 5....that's why I suspect it's something with the fact that you are trying to install Beta 5 over an existing Beta 4.  Keep in mind that these Beta releases are not considered "stable" so they may or may not be easy to upgrade between....but, we are ensuring it will be possible to upgrade from DSpace 6.x to 7.0 final (once that's ready to go).

Thanks, Tim. That's mysterious, as this is definitely a fresh install--in fact, it's the second fresh install of beta 5 after clearing all existing dspace files on the server, as I figured an earlier beta 4 file might have gotten copied in by accident during the first beta 5 install. I wonder if something is stuck in a cache somewhere?

Clearing and replacing the spring folder with ant update did clear the error, but now I'm getting a new one:

It occurs to me I am still using the postgres database I created for beta 4. Has anything changed in the database structure since then?

Both PubmedImportMetadataSourceServiceImpl and
ArXivImportMetadataSourceServiceImpl are derived from
AbstractRemoteMetadataSource (via AbstractImportMetadataSource), so
both depend on maxRetry. Oddly enough, maxRetry is defined twice, in
pubmed-integration.xml and arxiv-integration.xml, and they disagree on
its value. It really should be a simple property supplied to each of
those Beans separately.

The v7 documentation is outdated in this area, but it is here:

https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Live+Import+from+external+sources

PubmedImportMetadataSourceServiceImpl is referenced in
dspace-api/src/main/resources/spring/spring-dspace-addon-import-services.xml
which is compiled into the dspace-api JAR, so it's not really
configurable, at least not without rebuilding.

Do you want to disable the integration just to get rid of this error,
or had you disabled it for other reasons and found that that now causes
this error? If the former, I would suggest trying to find out why
maxRetries is not being defined, especially since there are two
definitions.

[Mateo Palos]

Just to clear the error. We're trying to run through a practice import of our current Dspace 5.5 repository material, and since we're not using this integration, we're happy to give it up if it means removing a blocking issue for our testing. It sounds like it might not be that simple, however.

In any case, thanks for taking a look!
