[Dspace-tech] Dspace: File Upload Problem

[RENTON Scott]

Hi folks, first post and new to DSpace, so apologies if this sounds foolish.

I've recently taken over a fresh install of DSpace, to try and get a new usable repository set up. We're not doing anything fancy, just using the standard input form/metadata schema for now.

On item submission, I get the following error:

2010-01-26 15:41:55,163 ERROR org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.SubmissionController @ Error loading step class'org.dspace.submit.step.UploadStep':

I've checked that the relevant directory (dspace/upload) is writable by tomcat (I'd had a 'permission denied' error when setting this up at first, but fixed that), so I can't see what the problem is. Just wondering if this is a known problem when config hasn't been correctly done- I can give more information if someone can point me in the right direction!

Cheers

Fixed! There was an underlying permissions issue.

0kay,

I've solved the issue,

The first you need to do is, take a look of the user that's running the
tomcat, at my LAMP the user is 'tomcat'

So the folders /dspace/upload and /dspace/assetstore need all the
permissions by writing at console with root attributes:


chown -R tomcat /dspace/upload

chown -R tomcat /dspace/assetstore

So far, so good. Doing a review through the documentation, the files're
stored at the folder assetstore, so you need to give the permision to the
tomcat user for write on both folders.

My Dspace version is 1.7.2


Best Regards
Mike
