[Dspace-tech] OAI Harvesting Cannot Choose Metadata Format

[Joachim Bingel]

Dear community,

on our 3.1 DSpace implementation (using Manakin), I fail to select a
metadata format when setting up OAI harvesting for a collection. The
corresponding dropdown menu is empty, and clicking on "Test Settings"
does not return any info (i.e. the page does not change). Upon clicking
"Save", the input fields are set to empty and the "harvested_collection"
table in the DB receives an entry where only "collection_id",
"harvest_type" (set to 0) and "id" are set.

Running "bin/dspace harvest -r -e ... -c N" where N is the corresponding
collection_id throws an exception ("Provided collection is not set up
for harvesting"). I did not find any interesting info in the log files.

Any ideas where to start?

Thanks very much,
Joachim

Dear Joachim,

I think this is a configuration problem.
Can you send the contents of your config/modules/oai.cfg file?

More in specific, check if following keys are present & uncommented:

harvester.oai.metadataformats.dc =
http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai_dc/, Simple Dublin Core
harvester.oai.metadataformats.qdc = http://purl.org/dc/terms/, Qualified
Dublin Core
harvester.oai.metadataformats.dim = http://www.dspace.org/xmlns/dspace/dim,
DSpace Intermediate Metadata
harvester.autoStart=false
harvester.unknownField = add
harvester.unknownSchema = fail

There are a number of other issues with the OAI Harvesting client that have
been logged in JIRA. Some of them already have pull requests. It would be
great if you could test out the provided solutions or join in solving these.
