Dear Thao,

If you want the whole website to come up in Vietnamese, then you can add
cgiarg shortname=l argdefault=vi
into etc/main.cfg file in the Greenstone home directory.

However, if you want it on a per collection 
basis, then it is more complicated, please see 
the ongoing discussion between Katherine Don and Gloria Toro on this list.

                                         Best regards, John Rose

Hello Anupama,

Just to let you know that the previous fix on the gli.bat file didn't work,
but the recent suggestion of installing on C:\ drive worked like a breeze.

Please convey my sincere thanks and appreciation to the Greenstone support
staff for all your help/time.

Hello Ron,

Were the changes to the gli.bat file sufficient to fix the problems you 
encountered?
If not, another developer here came up with a different suggestion. As 
you are working on Vista and Vista has a different way of dealing with 
Administration privileges, it may be better for you to install 
Greenstone outside of C:\Program Files. Try either C:\ directly or in 
your user account (Users\<your user account name>). But first you'll 
need to uninstall the Greenstone 2.81rc you have in C:\Program Files though.

Therefore,
1. First run uninstall on your Greenstone 2.81rc installed in C:\Program 
Files
2. Rerun the installer and put it somewhere *other* than C:\Program 
Files, such as C: or in a location within your User account.

A better solution is being considered for Vista that will hopefully 
allow installation into C:\Program Files, but for the time being, we 
hope the above suggestion may sort out the issue you've been facing.

Regards,
Anupama

Hi, We're looking at a possible upgrade from Greenstone 2.52 to 2.8 or 2.81. Can you point me to where I can see a list of improvements 2.8x provides over 2.52 from the *user perspective*?

In other words, what would a *visitor* to our digital library be able to do with 2.8x that they could not do with 2.52? 

Also, are there any improvements to search (either from a user or admin perspective)?

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Huan Qiao

Was the Greenstone installer running properly? Did you inspect any error
during installing? If everything was fine, my only suggestion is that you
could delete the greestone folder and reinstall it.

Regards
Quan

Hi

The message showed the user has to be granted full permissions to the 
C:\Program Files\Greenstone folder before using depositor. So you need to
check the user rights of the greenstone folder.

Hi

I met the same problem with Apache2.2.9 on Windows Xp. And I found Apache
1.3 can server Greenstone perfectly by following the configuration of the
library.txt file.

Subject: [greenstone-users] Endnote export to GLI
Message-ID: <001f01c95404$1b7bf280$5273d780$@ac.fj>

Bula (hello),

 

First, I would like to know if the Endnote reference database can somehow be
imported into Greenstone, and if yes, how do I go about doing this? And if
there are any disadvantages to this as opposed to entering information
directly into GLI?

 

Secondly, I would like to know if its possible to search the archives of
postings made on this Greenstone listserver, so a person could search that
first and apply solutions proposed in it, before repeating any postings
here.

 

Vinaka (thanks),

Ron Vave

Hi Thao Thao,

Could you try out the following:
1. At present, your httpd.conf file has your ServerName set to contain 
both the host and port as follows:
ServerName localhost:8080

You have specified the portnumber separately already, which is correct. 
But your ServerName should not contain the portnumber. Therefore, can 
you set the ServerName entry in your httpd.conf to just localhost (or, 
alternatively, to the name of your machine):
ServerName localhost

2. Stop and start your apache server again.
Then first try visiting http://localhost:8080/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.exe
and if that didn't work, try visiting 
http://localhost:8080/gsdl/cgi-bin/library
(without the .exe extension)

Tell us if you still have any difficulties.
Regards,
Anupama

Dear All,

But I had never experienced any  problem in installing and using gsdl 2.80
in Windows XP SP II with Apache 2.2.9.
In another institution, it did not work when firewall was on. So we disabled
the firewall.
I had used Apache 2.2.4 too previously in my Windows XP successfully.
After installation, we need to restart the computer to get the result.
During the installation, I provided localhost ( without  any Port No) as
ServerName and port no was not mentioned.
So it might have used the default port no 80
So it appears that the problem is not that of Apache 2.2.9

Ron,

We have done this quite successfully.  We exported several EndNote libraries in BibTex format and then imported them into GS using the BibTex plugin (BibTexPlug).  The trick is to export in BibTex format.  We have just over 10,000 records in this collection.

The Greenstone archives are available at http://nzdl.sadl.uleth.ca/cgi-bin/library?a=p&p=about&c=gsarch

You should also see http://www.greenstone.org/support for more options.

Bula (hello),

First, I would like to know if the Endnote reference database can somehow be imported into Greenstone, and if yes, how do I go about doing this? And if there are any disadvantages to this as opposed to entering information directly into GLI?

Secondly, I would like to know if its possible to search the archives of postings made on this Greenstone listserver, so a person could search that first and apply solutions proposed in it, before repeating any postings here.

Vinaka (thanks),

Ron,

Regarding Endnote data, the trick is to convert it into a format that
can be imported into Greenstone. I have done this, with the help of a
little Perl scripting, with Inmagic DBText databases. I would be happy
to show you how I did this.

Hi Huan Qiao

>The fact is that the Greenstone 2.8 version works well although it can't
deal with Chinese.
Do you mean you couldn't import Chinese documents into Greenstone? To
import Chinese documents, you need to add "separate_cjk   true" manually
into collect.cfg. Please see
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Configuration_file_options#Options_also_available_as_options_to_import.pl
for details.

If you want the greenstone web page displayed in Chinese, please add
"l=zh" (default language is English)at the end of the address. A Chinese
sample collection is available at
http://nzdl.sadl.uleth.ca/cgi-bin/library?a=p&p=about&c=chinese&l=zh

And you can reference the collect.cfg at
http://www.nzdl.org/gsdl/collect/chinese/etc/collect.cfg

>However, 2.81 version can't show the header words.

Could you send me a screen shot?

Quan

conducted during December 2008 on Multilingual capability on GSDL. Hope it 
is of use to all those working on multilingual feature!

 Hi everybody!
 I installed Apache2.2.9 ang Greenstone 2.72(Web Library). Content
httpd.conf:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2> for detailed information.
# In particular, see
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do.  They're here only as hints or reminders.  If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
#
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo.log"
# with ServerRoot set to "C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/foo.log".
#
# NOTE: Where filenames are specified, you must use forward slashes
# instead of backslashes (e.g., "c:/apache" instead of "c:\apache").
# If a drive letter is omitted, the drive on which httpd.exe is located
# will be used by default.  It is recommended that you always supply
# an explicit drive letter in absolute paths to avoid confusion.

#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.  If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive
# at a local disk.  If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple
# httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.
#
ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2"

#
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.

Bula (hello),

 

First, I would like to know if the Endnote reference database can somehow be
imported into Greenstone, and if yes, how do I go about doing this? And if
there are any disadvantages to this as opposed to entering information
directly into GLI?

 

Secondly, I would like to know if its possible to search the archives of
postings made on this Greenstone listserver, so a person could search that
first and apply solutions proposed in it, before repeating any postings
here.

 

Vinaka (thanks),

Ron Vave

Message-ID: <B7C2258D2CE34641953C8E1B4C7484500172DADB@mcexchange.mercycorps.org>

Hi, We're on Greenstone 2.52. We are considering an upgrade to 2.8x but our main requirement is that Microsoft Office 2007 documents build properly.

I was told on this list to try 2.8, but we can't find any documentation anywhere saying that Office 2007 (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) is supported in 2.8.

Can anyone point me to this documentation? Or can anyone verify from experience that Office 2007 documents are supported in Greenstone 2.8 or 2.81? 

If all we need is the right plugin, rather than the full upgrade, that would be great to know, too.

Thanks again,
Jeff

Hi Jeff

Yes, Greenstone can process Word, Excel, Powerpoint documents. I don't
exactly know the differences between 2.52 and 2.81. But the basic concept
didn't change I think, but some small improvements have been made for
user's convenience, Like the names of plugins have been modified in the
latest version. Please read the release notes and the link below for
details.
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Plugins

I think you can install Greenstone 2.81 on a computer, and then build a
small collection to feel the differences.

If your old collections needn't to be rebuilt and all customization codes
are in the collection folders, you just need to copy the collect folder to
the new GREENSTONEHOME/collect, and then see how's going on a web browser.
If you already made modification on the macros/ folder, you need to
carefully compare differences first then move them to the new version.

Hello Biju,

While I've had one word document that did not get converted for me, it 
did not not produce the message you encountered but instead caused the 
build process to stall indefinitely.

Katherine of the Greenstone Team has told me that the kind of problem 
you've come up against can happen when the wvware tool that Greenstone 
uses to convert Word docs to html is not compatible with the version of 
the Word doc in question.

Here are her suggestions on what you could try:
1. Instead of using wvware, you could use windows scripting. This is 
available to you only if you're running GLI on a Windows platform. 
Windows scripting uses Windows' own capabilities to convert Word docs to 
html (such as MS Word's Save As HTML option). Please refer to
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/gsdoc/tutorial/en/enhanced_word.htm
for a tutorial that covers this.

2. You can set GLI to run in Expert Mode in order to see a more 
descriptive error message as to what went wrong. Go to the menu File > 
Preferences > Mode > Expert.

All the best,
Anupama

Subject: [greenstone-users] Enabling Indic Languages such as Malayalam in

      Dear All,
     
      Windows based computers, now, can handle Indic Languages, such as Malayalam, on enabling the Indic Input Method Editor (IME) and by adding the language Keyboard.
     
      An IME

               is a component of the operating system, that 

               allows computer users to enter complex characters of languages such as Malayalam 

               using a standard Western Keyboard created for English.
     
      IME can be added from the Microsoft Windows/Office CD or from the Downloads link under the For End Users section of the www.bhashaindia.com 
     
      To enable Malayalam on the Windows XP platform (Service Pack II necessary), the following simple 5-step procedure is to be followed :

        1.. The support for Malayalam IMEs can be enabled by going to Control Panel and then on the button titled "Regional and Language Options". Three options will emerge as tabs: Regional Options, Languages and Advanced.  Select the Languages tab. Check the box titled "Install files for complex scripts and left-to-right languages (including Thai)" and click Apply. Then insert the Windows XP CD to finish the configuration.  
        2.. Run the Malayalam IME setup file and restart the computer.  
        3.. To enable the recognition of the keyboard layout the user must go to the Control Panel and then on to Regional and Language Options button. Of the three tabs available, select the Languages tab. Then click on the Details. . . button in the Text services and input languages section. Upon clicking the button, select Malayalam as the input language and Add Malayalam as the keyboard. In the option box that ensues, select Malayalam Indic IME 1 as the option. 
        4.. After the installation is complete, start any Office application, including WordPad or Notepad. Click the Language Indicator located in the System Tray on the right side of the Windows taskbar, and click to select "Malayalam Indic IME 1 from the shortcut menu that appears. The computer can be used to create language documents or type metadata in GLI.

I have published two fairly small Greenstone collections on a CD, and 
have found that some have given up trying to install it through problems 
they have encountered.

What is the minimum configuration and other software needed to install a 
collection on a Windows computer? Is Java needed for accessing a collection?

I have put the following note with later CDs and it has slowed the 
complaints, but many of the users are not very computer literate, and 
problems are still occurring. One user told me today that he was able to 
install on his work machine but cannot on his home machine.
_____________________________________________________________________
The CD should be self installing. We recommend using the directory 
suggested by the installation programme for the Greenstone software, and 
when the choice is given electing to install the collections to the hard 
disk (provided there is room on the hard disk; the installation process 
suggests that about 800Mb is needed). If the collections are not loaded 
to the hard disk they still run reasonable well, if a little slower, but 
the CD is needed each time the collections are used.

The CD will not install properly on computers using operating systems 
other than Windows. Some users have experienced problems with the 
software wishing to set itself up as a local server ? it may need to be 
authorised in the Windows or other Firewall. It has been suggested that 
because it does act that way, users who do not have a firewall may be 
best to disconnect from the internet while using the programme, but we 
are not aware of any problems from leaving internet connections open 
while running the Library.

The next version will almost certainly be hosted on a web site, but that 
will not be until next year . . .

We are migrating our digital collections and need to keep our collection OAI
harvestable.  We currently have a presence via OAIster
(http://oaister.umdl.umich.edu/o/oaister/) and have intermediated through
the Los Alamos Gateway at:

http://libtest.lanl.gov/

Does Greenstone allow for the building of OAI compliant XML files that are
successfully intermediated via a standard gateway and harvestable with
OAIster?

The following page suggests the inverse:

Any suggestions to approach this goal would be greatly appreciated.  Thank

Dear Ron,

I understand that there is an option in Endnote to export to BibTex, 
and there is a BibTex plugin for Greenstone. So that if this works, 
it would be simpler and in principle more error resistant than 
directly reformatting the metadata to confirm to Greenstone standards.

Please let us know if this works. Some of the bibliographic database 
plugins, including perhaps BibTex, were apparently developed a long 
time ago for specific applications and may have hitches. Best 
regards, John of Greenstone Team

P.S. The CDS/ISIS plugin was completely reworked in 2006 and the 
ProCite plugin has been refined in version 2.81rc but not yet widely 
tested. We are carefully monitoring for user feedback.

Hi Thao

The error message showed that JarSinger couldn't be found from the path.
You have to check whether the Java_JDK\bin folder has been included into
the path, and is there a JarSinger class under the Java_JDK\bin folder?

No other software is needed to be installed if you want to run a
collection exported from Greenstone.

>Is Java needed for accessing a

Web browsing of Greenstone 2 is implemented in C. And the exported
collection has included a C binary code for serving the Greenstone pages.
So you don't have to install any JAVA for it.

If you send the error message of the exported greenstone collection cannot
run to the mailing list, it may be help for developers to locate the
problem.

>Some users have experienced problems with the

The exported collection only can be viewed locally, it cannot be access
from the network. If you want the collections to be accessed from the
network, you have to install the Greenstone software.

Hello,

Instead of using icons, I would like to link from an AZCompact list of 
subjects ("open this section of the library and view contents") to the 
page with the full list of each subject ("close this section of the 
library").  I have figured out how to make the link using 
[link][Title][/link], but on the second page there is a link back (to the 
list of subjects) but also a link with the name of the file(I think it's 
ex.title) which doesn't go anywhere useful.  How can I get rid of the link 
of the name of the file?  It seems to be linked to the subject name 
somehow.

Also,  I am looking for more instruction on manipulating the macros and 
config files, and maybe even looking at the source code.  I've been using 
the wiki and listserv archives, are there any other resources I should be 
checking?

Thanks very much for any help,
Martin

Subject: [greenstone-users] the wvWare solution
Message-ID: <493A8B8A.3010804@sdb.org>

Dear List,
An issue that has bugged me for a while is now resolved - simply enough, 
I must add, but I wonder if people in the GS Team could take a note of 
this please, if they have not already done so for 2.81. It concerns the 
version of wvWare that comes with 2.80, and which handles conversion of 
MS files, particularly Word.  It is an older version, and while wvWare 
has remained somewhat static for a few years, there is a newer version 
1.2.4 which works better than the one shipped with GS 2.80.  Could this 
newer version be included, please, in upgrades of GS?
I realise that the issue is less important for Windows users, who can 
overcome problems by using Windows scripting, but in my case, using 
Ubuntu 8.10 and GS 2.80, MSWord files were simply not being converted to 
html as they should be, and I was left with hieroglyphics instead of 
readable text. By replacing the wvWare file in the gsdl/bin/linux folder 
(that was sufficient, nothing else needed) with the 1.2.4 version I 
resolved the problem. It also seems to have resolved a similar problem I 
was having with ppt files.  I might add, for anyone using Linux, that I 
had to download a few lib file dependencies to compile wvWare, and that 
kept me a bit preoccupied for a while until I succeeded, but that's by 
the way. Beyond that, the problem was resolved.

Good day,

I want to explode a CDS/ISIS database with 32146 records.  Is there a  
limit to the number of records that can be exploded? I used 100  
records per folder. It just hangs for a long while and then actually  
explodes some records, but not all the 32146.
Here is the error message:  For testing purposes I entered 3 file  
names of tiff files in the last 3 records of the database with the  
corresponding files in the prefix folder.  If necessary I can send the  
database master file, the FDT and XRF off list.

Thanks very much
Renate Morgenstern

Hello,

Please send us your questions in English, as this is an English-language 
mailing list.

Here is a translation of what you wrote to us, courtesy of Olena:
 >the letter says the following:
 >
 > they have issues with encoding. When they use DOC file and normal
 > conversion method, it's all fine, but when they use windows_scripting
 > the encoding is not readable. There is also a problem with Equation
 > Editor, Mathtype formulas and special characters in MS Office, which

 > They ask to help with this issue.

1. Could you please send us one of the documents you are working with, 
for us to look at it here and try it out.
2. We are not sure we understand the final part of your question. (You 
wrote that the "special characters in MS Office ... go missing when the 
PDF file is converted.") Is it that you are trying to put a PDF document 
or a Word/Office document into Greenstone?

Please reply in English, because unfortunately we do not understand Russian.

Thanks and regards,
Anupama

Katherine,

 

Thank you for your comprehensive reply.

 

I merely want to be able to:

 

1>     produce an OAI compliant XML file with Greenstone, so I could indeed 

2>     Intermediate with a gateway (such as Los Alamos) and 

3>     harvest with OAIster. 

 

Previously, I performed step 1 with Luna and steps 2 and 3 as described.

 

Does Greenstone produce OAI compliant XML files? Or can I export my Dublin
Core from Greenstone to a XML file that is OAI compliant?

 

Stephen

Hi Stephen

I have just had a look on the web at OAIster and static repositories. Sorry,
I should have done this before I replied to you the first time.

After my 5 mins of reading, this is what I understand the situation is.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

OAIster harvests OAI repositories. To become a data provider, you need to
check your repository against a validator, and then register.
If you don't have a proper OAI server, then you can set up a static OAI
repository, which is an XML file. 
These may be harvested by OAI repository gateways, which is what you are
trying to do?

Greenstone provides a proper OAI repository server (oaiserver), and from
version 2.81 and later should validate against the repository validator
specified on the OAIster "Steps to Becoming a Data Contributor" page.

We currently don't provide exporting a collection as an OAI static
repository. 

Is there a reason why you wish to keep using a static repository rather than
setting up the proper OAI repository?

Regards,
Katherine

Hi Stephen

No, Greenstone currently doesn't provide this option, as we provide a 
proper OAI repository (which you can use directly with OAIster).
I have added a ticket to our trac bug/feature tracking system, so it may 
get added in the future.
http://trac.greenstone.org/ticket/431

Katherine

Hi Patrick

The 2.81 release has been modified so that the OAI metadata will remain 
as dublin core. So I suggest you try that release. (greenstone.org/download)

Hi Amin (and Gavin, since you asked this question a while ago)

There is not much documentation, sorry. There is a little bit on the wiki, and some of it hasn't been updated, so different pages may relate to different versions of greenstone. The plugin structures have changed for 2.81. If you are developing plugins, then I suggest you use 2.81 as the new inheritance hierarchy should make it easier to develop a new plugin.

The best way is to start with the plugin that is most similar to what you want to do, then modify the bits of code that need to be different.

On the wiki:
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Plugins : is a list of all plugins and what they do (2.81+)
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Explaining_Plugins : a bit more info about the code (2.80-)
http://www.greenstone.org/manuals/gsdl2/en/html/Chapter_getting_the_most_out_of_your_documents.htm: part of the developers guide, talking about plugins.

I want to update the wiki with this kind of info about developing plugins, but just never seem to find the time...

Regards,
Katherine

Wow. This was a long time ago. ;)

I'm still using Greenstone 2.72. Currently, the problem has either corrected itself or no image collections have been built by our archivist. I would test, but am just swamped right now. When the problem exists, building an image collection only affects the the paged image collection. When building the paged image collection, it does not affect the image collection. It's like the image collections are ganging up on the paged image collection because it's different. LOL! ;)

Hi there

Weird! What versions of Greenstone are you using?
Gavin, when you build the image collections, do they affect any of the other image collections? And if you build the pagedimage collection, does it not affect the image collections?

James, you are having a paged image collection affecting an image collection?

Are your thumbnails all called thumbnail.jpg? The images that are affecting the different collections, do they have the same name?

In Greenstone 2.81 the thumbnails have the original file name as part of their name, so hopefully this won't happen any more. (I hope you are not seeing this in 2.81!)

Cheers,
Katherine

in case Gavin has solved it or anyone has any feedback on it.

I have several paged image collections and a photo collection.  I
should note that the paged image collections are heavily customized
with HTML and CSS.  When I search the (uncustomized) photo collection,
I see thumbnails from the paged image collections in the search
results, and those thumbnail photos are in the photo collection's
folder under index/assoc/HASH0122.dir/thumbnail.gif -- these files
themselves are the wrong thumbnails, but only the thumbnails seem
wrong (the full size and screenview seem fine).

I suspect there is something going wrong when the thumbnails are
generated during collection building, maybe with the tmp folder.  but
I'm not sure exactly what's causing the cross pollination.

I have a problem that has me totally stumped. On our Greenstone server we have 8 image collections and 1 paged-image collection. When building any of the image collections, it affects the paged-image collection in the following way: some, but not all, of the [ex.thumbicon]'s my SearchVList show thumbnail images from the image collection that was built, instead of the correct thumbnail images from the paged-image collection. Even more vexing, when I right-click on one of the "invading" thumbnails and select "View image", the resulting url shows that the thumbnail is in one of the paged-image HASH subdirectories!! Oddly enough, the VList for my browsing classifiers is unaffected.

If I rebuild my paged-image collection, the problem gets fixed. But this is obviously not a long term solution. I don't want to have to rebuild my paged-image collection after every time I build one of my image collections.

This is quite disconcerting and doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. If I have one collection open in the GLI, why should it have ANY effect on another collection?

I'm thoroughly perplexed. What am I missing?

Message-ID: <493ECF39.10500@sdb.org>

Hi list,
A question regarding Xena (open source conversion to xml used as a 
digital preservation technique by the National archives of Australia).
It occurred to me that since Xena does a nice job in converting all 
kinds of formats to xml (or probably better, wrapping them in xml and 
maybe that's the problem?) it could be part of the plugin approach to 
Greenstone.  Or not?  I actually tried it out but since Xena saves as 
*.xena I couldn't somehow get the unknown plugin to work with that!  I 
then thought I'd change that to .xml but that didn't work either.
Just a thought.

Hello again Andrew,

The solution of another developer (Quan, qq6) that recently worked in a 
Linux context may also be applicable in dealing with the javagdbm 
compilation problem you encountered.

As per their suggestion, try compiling with Java 5 rather than Java 6 by 
setting your JAVA_HOME to the former.

Yesterday, a developer here who was trying to compile Greenstone 3 from 
SVN on their Windows laptop got the same compilation error, while it 
succeeded for me when I tried it out immediately thereafter on another 
Windows machine. I suspected my environment settings must have been 
different. And now I see that they were: both my Windows and Linux 
machines are set to use a JDK 5 for JAVA_HOME whereas the other 
developer had set JAVA_HOME to 6 on their laptop.

Therefore, when you get a chance, will you try this out and inform us if 
it didn't solve the problem for you?

Thanks,
Anupama

Hi,

 > 1. Want to change the appearance of the word *"search"* given in the
 > circle that is from small letters to capital letters. How to do this?
 > (pls see screenshot-1)

a. Open up the file GSDLHOME/images/style.css in a texteditor

b. Look for the definition of p.bannertitle in this css file.

c. Change its text-transform attribute value from lowercase to uppercase 
instead.
Your p.bannertitle may then look like:

/* the title set by the receptionist based on the page action */
p.bannertitle {
   font-family: sans-serif, arial, helvetica;
   font-size: 24px;
   font-weight: bold;
   margin: 10px 0 0 0;
   text-transform: uppercase;
   white-space: nowrap;
   padding: 6px 2px 10px 0px;
   background-repeat: repeat-y;
   background-position: top right;
  }


 > 2. Want to add some more text/contents in the collection home
 > page(apart from the present text highlighted in the circle), how to
 > add some more contents ? (Pls see screenshot-2)

Please have a look at the tutorial page
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/gsdoc/tutorial/en/using_macro_files.htm

You can also add a longer description for your collection (which goes 
into the collection's main page) through GLI. Go to the Format tab, 
select General on the left, and in the large text area on the right, add 
more text.


 > 3. Want to change the appearance of the text in *"How to find
 > information in the....."* given in the circle that is from small
 > letters to First letter/Character capital letters. How to do this?
 > (pls see screenshot-2)

a. Open up the file GSDLHOME/macros/english.dm in a texteditor.

b. Find the line
_textsimplehelpheading_ {How to find information in the _collectionname_ 
collection}

c. Change this line to
_textsimplehelpheading_ {How To Find Information In The _collectionname_ 
Collection}

d. Restart your Greenstone 2 server and check that it has the correct case.


 > 4. Want to change the colour of navigation bar, how & where to make
 > this change?

The image GSDLHOME/images/bg_green.png is used as the navigation bar. 
Either:
a. open up the file GSDLHOME/macros/style.dm and replace the uses of 
bg_green.png with the name of the image file you want to use in its 
stead, or
b. create a new PNG image for your navigation bar and name it 
bg_green.png and replace the existing one in the folder GSDLHOME/images

At present, the style.dm file contains:
_cssheader_ {
_csslink_
<style type="text/css">
body.bgimage \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/chalk.gif"); \}
div.navbar \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/bg_green.png"); \}
div.divbar \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/bg_green.png"); \}
a.navlink \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/bg_off.png"); \}
a.navlink_sel \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/bg_green.png"); \}
a.navlink:hover \{ background-image: url("_httpimg_/bg_on.png"); \}
p.bannertitle \{background-image: url("_httpimg_/banner_bg.png"); \}
p.collectiontitle \{background-image: url("_httpimg_/banner_bg.png"); \}
</style>
_collectionspecificstyle_

}

Anupama

Hi group,

 

 I have setup the Java applet to run via the web browsers however the applet

can navigate "Local Filespace" and "Home Folder" just fine. Also on the
right side it says "no collection loaded". 

I'm logging in with a user that is a member of the administrator and
colbuilder groups.

Client computer is a WinXP with FF 3 and IE 7.

Greenstone Server is a Window 2003 server with IIS 6.0

Subject: [greenstone-users] Greenstone2.81rc2 released
Message-ID: <49405A04.7070708@cs.waikato.ac.nz>

Hello list members,

We are pleased to announce that the Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and
Source distributions of Greenstone v2.81rc2
are now available for download from our sourceforge page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone or from 
http://www.greenstone.org/download

Release notes are copied below.

This release is further to the recent 2.81rc release (first advertised 
as 2.81). If you installed the 2.81rc release, we recommend you upgrade 
to 2.81rc2. This can be done in two ways:
A) Simply install Greenstone2.81rc2 on top of the existing 
Greenstone2.81rc installation. This will overwrite all exising files 
with the updated files, but will not delete anything, so your 
collections will be preserved. Any changes to config files will be 
overwritten with the defaults.
B) Rename the home folder of your existing Greenstone2.81rc installation 
by adding '.bak' to the folder name. Then install the new 
Greenstone2.81rc2 in its place and copy your collections and any 
modified config files from the old 2.81rc installation to the 2.81rc2 
installation.

As always, please report any problems or bugs to the mailing list.

Regards,
Oran and the rest of the Greenstone team.

Release Name: 2.81rc2

The Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and Source distributions of Greenstone v2.81rc2
 are now available for download from our sourceforge page:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone

or via

  http://www.greenstone.org/download


Important changes in this release include, in no particular order:

Stability and Bug Fixes
-----------------------
Some small problems in the recent 2.81rc release of Greenstone2 have been ironed
out to create an overall more robust release. Some features have been restored
(including realistic books and dynamic classifiers on Windows) and the
LuceneWrapper.jar file has been put back into the release.

GDBM
----
Greenstone now comes with it's own modified version of gdbm which can
auto-detect the format of database files (ldb or bdb format) and load either
format on any of Greenstone's supported platforms. This achieves a better level
of portability for Greenstone collections, and allows collections built on one
operating system to be served from other operating systems supported by
Greenstone.


Installer improvements
----------------------
* The new installer:
   - is now available in five languages
   - can now cope with being executed from a path with accented characters and
     other special characters. (There is still a known issue with chinese
     file paths, which can be avoided by simply running from c:\ or another path
     with no special characters.)
* The source release is now provided as a platform-independent zip / tar archive
* We now provide a simple binary zip / tar distribution for each platform


Vista Compatibility
-------------------
* When Greenstone is installed into the Program Files directory on Windows Vista,
it is necessary to elevate to a higher access level to run GLI and the
Greenstone server. As of this release, you can do this by launching the Start
Menu items as an administrator. Just right-click the item and choose "Run as
Administator", or set "Run as Adminsitrator" in the shortcut properties.
Also, as a way to avoid having to elevate to higher access levels altogether,
the default installation directory is now inside the current user's home folder.

* Some Windows Vista users have experienced a problem when perl outputs warning
messages in front of xml output passed to GLI. The error messages themselves are
not fatal, but cause the xml to become invalid, resulting in a GLI crash. GLI
has been modified to ignore these warning messages and thereby keep the validity
of the xml.

New Start Menu icons and server image
-------------------------------------
Each item in a Greenstone Start Menu group is now has a unique icon so you can
tell which is which at a glance. We have also added some links to the wiki and 
the Greenstone website for convenience. The old server image has also been
replaced with the new GS2 Server logo.

The release notes from the 2.81rc release and included below:

Release Name: 2.81rc

The Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and Source distributions of Greenstone v2.81rc
 are now available for download from our sourceforge page:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone 

or via 

  http://www.greenstone.org/download


Important changes in this release include, in no particular order:

Installer:
--------------

The Greenstone installer downloads are now created using only open source 
software, including Ant Installer (http://antinstaller.sourceforge.net/), 
Apache Ant (http://ant.apache.org/), our own search4j (based on launch4j 
http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/), and our own Greenstone release kits.

We felt it was essential to move away from our existing, closed-source 
installer suite as it was not in the spirit of Greenstone to rely on 
proprietary software, and it invited the unnecessary cost of keeping the suite 
up-to-date.

Using only open source software has also given us the freedom to customise the 
user experience of the installers. Where a feature was lacking in one of the 
open source packages, we have enjoyed the ability to "open the hood" and 
implement it.

With the development of the Greenstone release kits we are now able to generate
 releases of Greenstone automatically and unattended. This process takes just 
20 minutes, and it has helped us a lot in the development and testing of new 
features of Greenstone. We have been able to set up a feedback loop, where code
 committed one day is included in an automatic nightly snapshot release made 
available for download on our website the next day. Our users have also 
benefited from being able to obtain up-to-date snapshot releases of Greenstone 
in between our official releases.

These daily snapshots are available through:

  http://www.greenstone.org/snapshots

On Windows, the version number is included in the Start Menu which means that 
multiple installations of Greenstone will have their own entries in the Start 
Menu. The installer no longer writes to the registry, so installation no 
longer requires administrator privileges.

ImageMagick is now bundled with Greenstone for binary web releases for all 
platforms (previously it was only provided on a CD-ROM release) and includes 
JPEG2000 support. The installer offers the option to install this or not.  
You can skip installing it if you already have ImageMagick previously installed.

Ghostscript is now bundled with Greenstone for binary web releases for Windows 
and Mac. The installer offers the option to install this or not.  You can 
skip installing it if you already have Ghostscript previously installed.

Importing and Plugin Changes:
------------------------------

Plugin Restructuring: The plugins have been restructured. This has been done 
mostly for coding efficiency. The most noticeable change is that plugins have 
been renamed. xxxPlug now becomes xxxPlugin, and some have also had their names
 modified or expanded to be clearer. For example, DBPlug is now DatabasePlugin,
 PPTPlug is PowerPointPlugin. The complete list of new plugins can be seen at 
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Plugins. Old collections should 
still build okay in GLI, which will map the old plugin names to the new ones. 
Command line building should also work, but the configuration file won't be 
altered to use the new names.

A lot of work has been done trying to get Greenstone to work properly with 
non-ascii filenames. Two versions of the filename are stored, [Source] for 
displaying the filename, and [SourceFile] for linking to the file from a web page.

The -smart_block option (most commonly seen with HTMLPlugin) has been deprecated
. Instead we have a first pass through the documents to find out which ones 
should be blocked.

MARCPlugin and MARCXMLPlugin can now map metadata to Qualified Dublin Core as 
well as Dublin Core.

MARCXMLPlugin now assigns metadata from metadata.xml files.

EMAILPlugin now saves binary attachments as binary files on Windows

ImagePlugin and PagedImagePlugin now offer the -cache_generated_images option 
to prevent thumbnails and screenview images being recreated each import.

OAIPlugin saves the metadata as Dublin Core rather than moving it all to the ex
 metadata set. This means that it won't show up in the GLI unless the files are
 exploded. Exploding is now available for OAI records.

ProCitePlugin no longer uses the pc namespace. Metadata is stored using the 
field names set in the workform definition, rather than using Field1Name and 
Field1Value etc..

-reversesort option to import.pl to be used with -sortmeta option to sort in 
reverse order.

Tidied up OID generation. OIDtype and OIDmetadata options are now available 
for each plugin as well as globally from import.pl. Hashing usually occurs on 
the original file, but some plugins specify that hashing should be done on the 
Greenstone XML document.

Building and Indexing Changes:
-------------------------------

Improvements to Lucene incremental building. Lucene document identifiers now 
match Greenstone identifiers, rather than 1, 2, 3, thanks to DL Consulting. 
This improves search efficiency, and is another step towards true incremental 
building. Rebuilding with no new documents shouldn't break the index.

MGPP and Lucene building tidied up. 'allfields' now means combined searching 
over all specified indexes (not all document metadata) for both mgpp and lucene.
 'metadata' will index all metadata, but no longer reindexes metadata that has 
already been specified. MGPP indexing over combined fields now works properly.

New collection configuration file option: infodbtype. Values include gdbm (the 
default), gdbm-txtgz, sqlite, mssql. This specifies what database system to use
for the collection metadata database. Currently this needs to be added to 
collect.cfg by hand, as it is not available in GLI yet.

gdbm: the default, and is what has always been used previously. This is 
platform dependent. It transfers between Windows and Linux, but not to/from a 
Mac.

gdbm-txtgz: A gzipped text version of the database. At runtime, the first time 
this collection is accessed, it will be unpacked and converted to the 
appropriate GDBM database using txt2db. This is a good choice if you are 
creating a collection to be used on another operating system, especially if 
one or more of those operating systems is a Mac.

sqlite: Platform independent database using SQLite. The new dynamic classifiers
can be used with this database. Thanks to DL Consulting. 

mssql: Windows specific database using MS SQL Server. See 
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Using_MSSQL_for_Collection_Database 
for information about how to set this up. The new dynamic classifiers
 can be used with this database. Thanks to DL Consulting.

Depositor:
------------

Collection editing using the Depositor is now enabled by default for the admin 
user.

The metadata fields offered for each document can now easily be customised 
from the GLI.  

By default, the depositor will import and build each document into the 
collection when it is added. It can now be easily set up to just "deposit" 
the item without rebuilding.

See http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_use_the_depositor for 
more information.

GLI
-------

A new right-click file option for binary files that go through a conversion 
process to be imported, such as PDF, Word and PowerPoint files. "Replace source
document with HTML" will convert the original file to HTML and replace it in 
the collection. This means that the converted HTML (which may be unattractive) 
can now be modified in the collection. This is available for Remote GLI too.

A new right-click file option on the collection tree background to refresh the 
file view. This is useful if you have manually added files to the collection 
outside of GLI.

MetadataXMLPlugin has been moved 'below the line' in the Plugins panel so 
cannot be removed in GLI. If you are using GLI to add metadata, then you need 
this plugin.

The Export As option now only exports one collection at a time. Collections 
can be exported as GreenstoneMETS, FedoraMETS, MARCXML and DSpace archive.

'NavigationBar pulldown' added to the list of format options - this makes the 
navigation 'bar' a drop down list instead of a bar across the page.

Lots of work done on making the Download panel work better, including getting 
download processes to terminate when they are cancelled or when GLI is closed 
while they are still running.

New panel under the Format tab, "Depositor Metadata" which allows 
customisation of which metadata fields should be offered in the depositor for 
that collection.

CJK segmentation option has been added to GLI. This doesn't do proper word 
segmentation, but adds a space in between each CJK character. The character 
ranges have been expanded to work with Japanese and Korean. It is applied to 
metadata as well as document text.

Another new feature in Greenstone v2.81 is the ability to schedule the
automatic rebuilding of a greenstone collection using the GLI. There's a new
panel under the Create tab allowing the scheduling of automatic collection
rebuilding. Scheduling will require some configuration in order for it to work.
The following link has more information on how to do this for each platform:
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Scheduled_Collection_Building_from_the_Librarian_Interface

Greenstone Runtime:
----------------------
New dynamic classifiers (if the collection uses sqlite or MSSQL as the 
collection database). These are generated at runtime so do not require the 
collection to be rebuilt for classifier changes. Another step towards true 
incremental building. See 
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/More_about_classifiers#How_do_I_use_dynamic_classifiers.3F 
for more information. Thanks to DL Consulting.

Large code restructuring.  Code is split between common-src, build-src and 
runtime-src.  Makes it easer to use code in other projets, such as Greenstone 3 
and running Greenstone on an iPhone/iPod Touch.

External links now default to going straight to the web page, rather than 
showing a warning page first.

Improvements to the oaiserver, thanks to DL Consulting. Resumption token 
support has been added, and it now validates against online validation tools.

Greenstone now compiles for Linux on 64-bit platforms.  All programs are 
compiled natively for 64-bit, except for those that rely on mg/mgpp, which 
still need to be 32-bit compiled.  As part of the configure/make process, the 
correct flags are automatically set, so from the developers point of view you 
compile up Greenstone on a 64-bit machine the exact same way you do for any 
other Unix-based system.

Greenstone should now compile with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, thanks to DL Consulting.

FLI - Fedora Librarian Interface
---------------------------------

The Fedora Librarian Interface (FLI) is very much like GLI in that it allows 
you to gather together your documents. It then uses Greenstone's ability to 
convert documents into the FedoraMETS format so that these can be ingested 
(put into) a Fedora repository. The process of building a collection using FLI 
exports documents into a repository maintained by a Fedora server rather than 
one maintained by Greenstone. In order to use FLI, you will need to have 
Fedora installed. More information on how to install Fedora and set it up 
to work with FLI, and how to run FLI itself, can be found in the documents:

1. Installing Fedora (2.2.1/3.0) and Fedora-related information
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/InstallingFedora

2. Installing Fedora Generic Search (to provide full-text indexing and
searching capabilities for a Fedora repository)
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/InstallingFedoraGSearch

3. Running FLI, the Fedora Librarian Interface

Hi list,
A simple question with what I hope is a simple answer: can I get an a-z 
selector hlist by using just the hierarchy classifier?  Alternatively, 
can I get the A-Z list to somehow recognise the | dividers in a hierarchy?

Hi,

 

When you launch greenstone server, go to File menu  settings . Once there,
choose Always use localhost or Always use 127.0.0.1 as your address
resolution method.

 

The error you mentioned appears because you dont have any network
connection available, so there is no ip address available to run server. 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Diego Spano

Dear Professional Friends,

I am trying to use Greenstone - 2.81rc (even tried 2.80 version too) on
'Windows Server 2003' but unable to build/add any kind of collections on
this. Could you kindly let me know the reasons which are not allowing me to
build or add any collection?


Following message appears while building collection:
______________________________________________________________
The file *.pdf was recognised but could not be processed by any plugin.
The file *.doc was recognised but could not be processed by any plugin.


2 documents were considered for processing:
  2 were rejected.
______________________________________________________________

I am using Apache webserver and JAVA (jre-6-winodws-i586) as per the GSDL
requirements.

Hope to hear you soon.

With kind regards,

Hi Amin

"$linetext =~ s/(\s*)\#\s+Updated\s+(\d?\d-\D\D\D-\d\d\d\d)\s*$//i;"
intended to clean up the string by deleting blank spaces,#,blank space
followed by "Updated" and date with empty. Please see
http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/Perl/sandtr.html#remembering for more details.

In your case, there might be some special characters in your translations,
for which the expression couldn't handle properly. If you could find those
special characters that will be help for developers to find a solution.
And the way to do it is not difficult. Try to write an simple Perl code to
pass all your translated strings with this expression, then you might find
the problem.

Regards
Quan

Hi

I guess this collection was built on GLI. You can change GLI into Expert
mode from File -> Preferences, then rebuild the collection. Please watch
the building log carefully to check the errors.

in the list if the documents are PDF format, and WordPlugin has to be
added for processing word documents.

Also, Change your GLI into Expert mode (File -> Preferences) and watch the
 building log carefully to check errors when all the files are being
processed

Hi Javeria

Which version of Greenstone are you using? If you have Firefox installed,
errors can be checked from Tools->Java Console.

Hello,

I think there is some plugin missing.
I install pdftohtml.
but still the same problem is there.
I think that the plugin has to be integrated with gsdl.
can somebody have any idea how to integrate it with gsdl.

Thanks and regards

Forgot to CC to the list

Hello Alok,

 >>> The requested URL /collect/1995/index/assoc/HASH9299.dir/doc.pdf
When you view the collection in the web browser, and select one of the 
browsing classifiers such as Titles or Filenames (these buttons for 
browsing will be located next to the Search button in the navigation 
bar), does it at least list the html version of this item? Can you view 
the converted document or is that also not available along with the 
original pdf document?


 > I install pdftohtml.
1. Actually, pdftohtml should already be in the bin/windows (or 
bin/linux) directory that is located inside your Greenstone installation 
directory. That is the version of pdftohtml that will be used.

2. Are you using GLI (the Greenstone Librarian Interface) application to 
build your collection? In the Design tab of GLI, you need to make sure 
that the PDFPlugin is in the list of plugins that will be used.

If this plugin is NOT already in the list of Assigned Plugins of the 
Design tab, then add it to this list as follows: select the PDFPlugin 
from the dropdown box at the very bottom of the Design Tab, press the 
Add Plugin button and click OK in the plugin's Configuring Arguments 
dialog that opens. Then try rebuilding the collection.

If your pdf document is still not getting converted to html:

3. As Quan said, can you go set the GLI mode to Expert and then in the 
Create tab of GLI, check what the errors are (if any) on building the 
collection?

4. Can you thereafter also read through and work through the PDF tutorial
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/gsdoc/tutorial/en/enhanced_pdf.htm

This tutorial discusses some instances where PDFs won't be processed and 
goes through some suggestions as to what can be done to work around such 
cases.

The sample documents that are used during this tutorial are linked to at 
the top right of the page. It doesn't take long to do, so do try it out. 
When you work through this tutorial are there any points where things 
failed for you?

Regards and good luck,
Anupama

Hi,

According to archival and cataloguing rules, etc, information has
sometimes to be embraced in square brackets [ ]. When one wants to
display this information in Greenstone, it does not display because
the parameters are also in { }. When we removed the { } it was
showing. Is there a way how to get around this problem?
We now have removed the [ ] from the text.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Message-ID: <494787A2.9020705@iway.na>

Good day,

We have a collection of 41 PDF documents (old prospectussess). One of
the browsing
classifiers is the year and I use the date list for it. However, when
viewing not all the years are showing. I have tried many options, but
with no success. I then removed 2 documents from the collection, and
there all the documents could be seen under the year. Then I added one
again, and the same problem as before. What is also puzzling, is that
the year is not displayed as a horizontal line above the documents,
but a vertical line with all the documents for that year next to each.
One can view it online at:
http://196.20.16.213/gsdl/cgi-bin/library?site=localhost&a=p&p=about&c=prospect&l=en&w=utf-8
I can send the collect.cfg file off-line.

Regards
Renate

Dear Jean-Michel,

The latest version of this general collection was version 2.1 (August 
2002), but the developer of the collection, Human Info NGO 
(http://www.humaninfo.org) has also published a large number of 
specialised CD-ROMs in the same format. You can see how to obtain 
them on the above, and you can see portions of several of them online 
at http://www.nzdl.org .

                                 Best regards, John Rose of Greenstone Team

P.S. If you are a French-speaking Greenstone user, there is a French 
language discussion group which can be accessed at 
http://www.freelists.org/webpage/greenstone_fr .

Hi Javeria,

The default settings for Awstats should show you the hits by country. So
if you get Awstats working you should get the information by default. I
believe it uses the top level domain of the host of the incoming http
requests to work out the country. Just make sure your web server (which
I assume is apache) keeps the access log in the correct format - Awstats
has instructions on how to do that.

Cheers,
Oran.

This is my second email to you just now. It is almost the same as the 
previous one, but I've made a few small corrections, which means you can 
skip reading the last one.


Hello Derrick,

 >> We have created Greenstone database for our research documents.
 >> So  i wanted to find out if you can host it for us.
Yes. As Prof Witten said, it could be hosted on the New Zealand Digital 
Library website (nzdl.org).

If you could send us your collection by exporting it to cd or dvd, as 
explained below, then we can do this for you.

Exporting your collection to cd/dvd:

1. Run the Greenstone Librarian Interface (GLI). If you're on Windows 
and installed Greenstone 2, then you would access GLI through the Start 
Menu.

If you are on a Windows machine but hadn't used an installer to install 
Greenstone 2, then there may not be any shortcut menus from the Start 
Menu. In such a case, to run GLI you would open the DOS prompt, cd into 
your Greenstone installation folder's "gli" subfolder and then type:
gli.bat

If you're on Linux, you would run GLI from the terminal by first going 
into your Greenstone installation directory's "gli" folder and then 
launching GLI by typing:
./gli.sh


2. When the GLI application window opens up, choose the File > Export 
menu option.

3. In the Export collection dialog that displays,
a. set the item in the Export To dropdown box as GreenstoneMETS,
b. in the Folder Name textbox, type a simple name for the folder into 
which your collection data will be stored,
c. in the list of Available Collections, choose the collection you wish 
to export,
d. Press the Export Collection button

If you have more than one collection that you want to export to CD/DVD, 
then repeat steps 3b to 3d for each. If you provide a different Folder 
Name for each, then your collections will each be stored inside a 
separate folder.

4. By default the exported collections will be stored inside the folder 
called "tmp" which is located in your greenstone installation folder. 
This tmp folder will contain one or more subfolders, going by the Folder 
Name(s) you provided in 3b for each exported collection.

5. Could you thereafter burn the contents of the "tmp" folder onto a CD?

Once you've made your disc, can you post it to:

Anupama Krishnan
Digital Library Lab G2.01
Department of Computing and Mathematical Sciences
University of Waikato, Te Whare Wananga o Waikato
Gate 1 Knighton Road
Private Bag 3105
Hamilton 3240
New Zealand

Once we've received the disc and added its collection(s) to the nzdl 
website, we will inform you of where to find your collection(s).

All the best,
Anupama

Hello Katya,

1. Can you tell us what version of Greenstone you were trying to 
install? For instance, was it the recent Greenstone 2.81 rc2?

2. What is the operating system you are trying to install it on? 
Windows, Linux or a Mac OS? And which version of the OS are you running?

Is there any other specific environment information which you think it 
will be useful for us to know about?

Do also try the links to the latest binaries (nightly snapshots) that 
Quan (qq6) provided.

Dear Greenstoners,

 

I'm about to build a community for the Arab users of Greenstone, this
according to a previous discussion with Mr. John Rose.  

 

Please feel free to join the group and open topics related to the Arabic
problems, practicing, and contributions in using Greenstone.

 

But, don't leave this mailing list because the new one wouldn't replace than
integrate with.

Dear Renate,

In the CDS/ISIS to Greenstone guide 
(http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/gsdoc/others/CDS-ISIS_to_DL.doc), 
the limitations to exploding are explained in chapter 4 and several 
solutions are given. If adjusting the "records per folder" parameter 
does not help, please try exploding and also building from the 
command line and inform us if the problem has been solved.

There is also the possibility of splitting the CDS/ISIS database into 
several sub-databases (exporting different MFN ranges to separate ISO 
files in CDS/ISIS, and reimporting them to CDS/ISIS databases with 
different names). You can then build separate Greenstone collections 
to be searched with the cross-collection search facility (to be set 
in the GLI Format panel). This has the disadvantage that browsing 
across more than one the sub-databases at one time would not be possible.

Modifying GLI to handle the large amounts of metadata associated with 
large bibliographic databases would be a major project which could be 
considered if there is a sufficiently broad user demand.

                                                         Best regards, John

Hi Renate,

You can simply use the backslash character "\" as an escape character.
For example, if part of your format statement was:

<td valign="top">[dc.Title]</td>

then you'd change it to:

<td valign="top">\[[dc.Title]\]</td>

for square brackets or

<td valign="top">\{[dc.Title]\}</td>

for curly brackets.

I hope that helps!

Regards


Amos

Hi Julian

We are just about to release the final 2.81 release. The windows and 
Linux binary versions have been updated to include static binaries for 
the new wvWare version. The Mac binary release, and source release, will 
remain with the old wvWare.
We didn't want to include the new version in the source release as it 
takes about 80Mb by the time you add in all the dependencies. But people 
working from source releases can always install it themselves if they 
need to.

Our focus for this problem next year will be to try and use Open Office 
to convert Word etc documents, so that we can handle Office 2007 documents.

Thanks for prompting us about this.

Cheers,
Katherine

Hello Thao Thao,

- Binaries are precompiled and therefore they are ready to run when 
you've downloaded them. The installer and the zipped binaries contain 
binary versions of Greenstone.

- Source code needs to be compiled up before it can be run. The source 
code releases contain the code but no binaries. The person who 
downloaded it will need to compile up the source code first (compiling 
the code will generate the executable binaries) after which they can 
then run the program.

The advantage with binaries is that you don't need the Java or C++ 
compilers installed on your machine in order to run Greenstone if you 
are working on Windows, Linux or Mac Leopard (if this last is configured 
similarly to our situation).

The advantage to having source code is that in those cases where a 
binary release is not available for someone's particular system, they 
can still produce a binary that will work for them by compiling up the 
source code on their own machine. This will generate binaries that are 
native to their machine, and (assuming the compilation succeeded without 
a glitch) this will work.

Hope this wasn't too confusing,
Anupama

Subject: [greenstone-users] Final of Greenstone2.81 Released
Message-ID: <494B2363.80009@cs.waikato.ac.nz>

Hello Users and Developers of Greenstone,

We are pleased to announce that the Windows, GNU/Linux, MacOS and Source
distributions of the finalised Greenstone2.81 are now available for
download from our sourceforge page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone or from
http://www.greenstone.org/download

This is the finalised 2.81 release. It includes some bug fixes found in
in 2.81rc2. If you are running a 2.81rc or 2.81rc2 please download and
upgrade to this release. Our response to any mailing list questions
about the 2.81rc or 2.81rc2 releases will simply be to ask you to
upgrade to 2.81 first and see if that fixes the problem.

As always, please report any problems or bugs to the mailing list.

Many of us in the Greenstone Team will be taking leave over Christmas
and throughout January. We wish all list members the best over the
holiday season! An unfortunate side effect is, of course, that our
responses on the mailing list may slow down over that period. We invite
all list members to help each other out during this time - if you know
the answer to a question someone else asks on the list, have confidence
in answering, as it might be a while before one of the Greenstone team
is available to reply.

Happy Holidays,
Oran and the rest of the Greenstone team.

Release Name: 2.81

The Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and Source distributions of Greenstone
v2.81
are now available for download from our sourceforge page:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone

or via

  http://www.greenstone.org/download


This is the finalised 2.81 release. It includes some bug fixes found in in
2.81rc2. If you are running a 2.81rc or 2.81rc2 please download and
upgrade to
this release.

Important changes in this release include, in no particular order:

wvWare updated
--------------
We have upgraded the version of wvWare included with Greenstone in the Linux
binary releases to version 1.2.4. It was not possible to do the same for the
MacOS binary distribution without shipping around 80Mb of additional
libraries,
so the MacOS binary release still comes with version 0.7.1. MacOS users may
upgrade wvWare if needed by downloading it from
http://wvware.sourceforge.net/ and compiling it. Source users will also
still get version 0.7.1 but may upgrade in the same way.


The release notes from the 2.81rc2 release and included below:

Release Name: 2.81rc2

The Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and Source distributions of Greenstone
v2.81rc2
are now available for download from our sourceforge page:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone

or via

  http://www.greenstone.org/download


Important changes in this release include, in no particular order:

Stability and Bug Fixes
-----------------------
Some small problems in the recent 2.81rc release of Greenstone2 have
been ironed
out to create an overall more robust release. Some features have been
restored
(including realistic books and dynamic classifiers on Windows) and the
LuceneWrapper.jar file has been put back into the release.

GDBM
----
Greenstone now comes with it's own modified version of gdbm which can
auto-detect the format of database files (ldb or bdb format) and load either
format on any of Greenstone's supported platforms. This achieves a
better level
of portability for Greenstone collections, and allows collections built
on one
operating system to be served from other operating systems supported by
Greenstone.


Installer improvements
----------------------
* The new installer:
   - is now available in five languages
   - can now cope with being executed from a path with accented
characters and
     other special characters. (There is still a known issue with chinese
     file paths, which can be avoided by simply running from c:\ or
another path
     with no special characters.)
* The source release is now provided as a platform-independent zip / tar
archive
* We now provide a simple binary zip / tar distribution for each platform


Vista Compatibility
-------------------
* When Greenstone is installed into the Program Files directory on Windows
Vista, it is necessary to elevate to a higher access level to run GLI
and the
Greenstone server. As of this release, you can do this by launching the
Start
Menu items as an administrator. Just right-click the item and choose "Run as
Administator", or set "Run as Adminsitrator" in the shortcut properties.
Also, as a way to avoid having to elevate to higher access levels
altogether,
the default installation directory is now inside the current user's home
folder.

* Some Windows Vista users have experienced a problem when perl outputs
warning
messages in front of xml output passed to GLI. The error messages
themselves are
not fatal, but cause the xml to become invalid, resulting in a GLI
crash. GLI
has been modified to ignore these warning messages and thereby keep the
validity
of the xml.

New Start Menu icons and server image
-------------------------------------
Each item in a Greenstone Start Menu group is now has a unique icon so
you can
tell which is which at a glance. We have also added some links to the
wiki and
the Greenstone website for convenience. The old server image has also been
replaced with the new GS2 Server logo.

The release notes from the 2.81rc release and included below:

Release Name: 2.81rc

The Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS/X and Source distributions of Greenstone
v2.81rc
are now available for download from our sourceforge page:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/greenstone

or via

  http://www.greenstone.org/download


Important changes in this release include, in no particular order:

Installer:
--------------

The Greenstone installer downloads are now created using only open source
software, including Ant Installer (http://antinstaller.sourceforge.net/),
Apache Ant (http://ant.apache.org/), our own search4j (based on launch4j
http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/), and our own Greenstone release kits.

We felt it was essential to move away from our existing, closed-source
installer suite as it was not in the spirit of Greenstone to rely on
proprietary software, and it invited the unnecessary cost of keeping the
suite
up-to-date.

Using only open source software has also given us the freedom to
customise the
user experience of the installers. Where a feature was lacking in one of
the
open source packages, we have enjoyed the ability to "open the hood" and
implement it.

With the development of the Greenstone release kits we are now able to
generate
releases of Greenstone automatically and unattended. This process takes
just
20 minutes, and it has helped us a lot in the development and testing of
new
features of Greenstone. We have been able to set up a feedback loop,
where code
committed one day is included in an automatic nightly snapshot release
made
available for download on our website the next day. Our users have also
benefited from being able to obtain up-to-date snapshot releases of
Greenstone
in between our official releases.

These daily snapshots are available through:

  http://www.greenstone.org/snapshots

On Windows, the version number is included in the Start Menu which means
that
multiple installations of Greenstone will have their own entries in the
Start
Menu. The installer no longer writes to the registry, so installation no
longer requires administrator privileges.

ImageMagick is now bundled with Greenstone for binary web releases for all
platforms (previously it was only provided on a CD-ROM release) and
includes
JPEG2000 support. The installer offers the option to install this or not.
You can skip installing it if you already have ImageMagick previously
installed.

Ghostscript is now bundled with Greenstone for binary web releases for
Windows
and Mac. The installer offers the option to install this or not.  You can
skip installing it if you already have Ghostscript previously installed.

Importing and Plugin Changes:
------------------------------

Plugin Restructuring: The plugins have been restructured. This has been
done
mostly for coding efficiency. The most noticeable change is that plugins
have
been renamed. xxxPlug now becomes xxxPlugin, and some have also had
their names
modified or expanded to be clearer. For example, DBPlug is now
DatabasePlugin,
PPTPlug is PowerPointPlugin. The complete list of new plugins can be
seen at
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Plugins. Old collections should
still build okay in GLI, which will map the old plugin names to the new
ones.
Command line building should also work, but the configuration file won't be
altered to use the new names.

A lot of work has been done trying to get Greenstone to work properly with
non-ascii filenames. Two versions of the filename are stored, [Source] for
displaying the filename, and [SourceFile] for linking to the file from a web
page.

The -smart_block option (most commonly seen with HTMLPlugin) has been
deprecated
. Instead we have a first pass through the documents to find out which ones
should be blocked.

MARCPlugin and MARCXMLPlugin can now map metadata to Qualified Dublin
Core as
well as Dublin Core.

MARCXMLPlugin now assigns metadata from metadata.xml files.

EMAILPlugin now saves binary attachments as binary files on Windows

ImagePlugin and PagedImagePlugin now offer the -cache_generated_images
option
to prevent thumbnails and screenview images being recreated each import.

OAIPlugin saves the metadata as Dublin Core rather than moving it all to
the ex
metadata set. This means that it won't show up in the GLI unless the
files are
exploded. Exploding is now available for OAI records.

ProCitePlugin no longer uses the pc namespace. Metadata is stored using the
field names set in the workform definition, rather than using Field1Name
and
Field1Value etc..

-reversesort option to import.pl to be used with -sortmeta option to
sort in
reverse order.

Tidied up OID generation. OIDtype and OIDmetadata options are now available
for each plugin as well as globally from import.pl. Hashing usually
occurs on
the original file, but some plugins specify that hashing should be done
on the
Greenstone XML document.

Building and Indexing Changes:
-------------------------------

Improvements to Lucene incremental building. Lucene document identifiers
now
match Greenstone identifiers, rather than 1, 2, 3, thanks to DL Consulting.
This improves search efficiency, and is another step towards true
incremental
building. Rebuilding with no new documents shouldn't break the index.

MGPP and Lucene building tidied up. 'allfields' now means combined
searching
over all specified indexes (not all document metadata) for both mgpp and
lucene.
'metadata' will index all metadata, but no longer reindexes metadata
that has
already been specified. MGPP indexing over combined fields now works
properly.

New collection configuration file option: infodbtype. Values include
gdbm (the
default), gdbm-txtgz, sqlite, mssql. This specifies what database system
to use
for the collection metadata database. Currently this needs to be added to
collect.cfg by hand, as it is not available in GLI yet.

gdbm: the default, and is what has always been used previously. This is
platform dependent. It transfers between Windows and Linux, but not
to/from a
Mac.

gdbm-txtgz: A gzipped text version of the database. At runtime, the
first time
this collection is accessed, it will be unpacked and converted to the
appropriate GDBM database using txt2db. This is a good choice if you are
creating a collection to be used on another operating system, especially if
one or more of those operating systems is a Mac.

sqlite: Platform independent database using SQLite. The new dynamic
classifiers
can be used with this database. Thanks to DL Consulting.

mssql: Windows specific database using MS SQL Server. See
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Using_MSSQL_for_Collection_Database 


for information about how to set this up. The new dynamic classifiers
can be used with this database. Thanks to DL Consulting.

Depositor:
------------

Collection editing using the Depositor is now enabled by default for the
admin
user.

The metadata fields offered for each document can now easily be customised
from the GLI.

By default, the depositor will import and build each document into the
collection when it is added. It can now be easily set up to just "deposit"
the item without rebuilding.

See http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_use_the_depositor for
more information.

GLI
-------

A new right-click file option for binary files that go through a conversion
process to be imported, such as PDF, Word and PowerPoint files. "Replace
source
document with HTML" will convert the original file to HTML and replace
it in
the collection. This means that the converted HTML (which may be
unattractive)
can now be modified in the collection. This is available for Remote GLI too.

A new right-click file option on the collection tree background to
refresh the
file view. This is useful if you have manually added files to the
collection
outside of GLI.

MetadataXMLPlugin has been moved 'below the line' in the Plugins panel so
cannot be removed in GLI. If you are using GLI to add metadata, then you
need
this plugin.

The Export As option now only exports one collection at a time. Collections
can be exported as GreenstoneMETS, FedoraMETS, MARCXML and DSpace archive.

'NavigationBar pulldown' added to the list of format options - this
makes the
navigation 'bar' a drop down list instead of a bar across the page.

Lots of work done on making the Download panel work better, including
getting
download processes to terminate when they are cancelled or when GLI is
closed
while they are still running.

New panel under the Format tab, "Depositor Metadata" which allows
customisation of which metadata fields should be offered in the
depositor for
that collection.

CJK segmentation option has been added to GLI. This doesn't do proper word
segmentation, but adds a space in between each CJK character. The character
ranges have been expanded to work with Japanese and Korean. It is
applied to
metadata as well as document text.

Another new feature in Greenstone v2.81 is the ability to schedule the
automatic rebuilding of a greenstone collection using the GLI. There's a new
panel under the Create tab allowing the scheduling of automatic collection
rebuilding. Scheduling will require some configuration in order for it
to work.
The following link has more information on how to do this for each platform:
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Scheduled_Collection_Building_from_the_Librarian_Interface

Greenstone Runtime:
----------------------
New dynamic classifiers (if the collection uses sqlite or MSSQL as the
collection database). These are generated at runtime so do not require the
collection to be rebuilt for classifier changes. Another step towards true
incremental building. See
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/More_about_classifiers#How_do_I_use_dynamic_classifiers.3F 


for more information. Thanks to DL Consulting.

Large code restructuring.  Code is split between common-src, build-src and
runtime-src.  Makes it easer to use code in other projets, such as
Greenstone 3
and running Greenstone on an iPhone/iPod Touch.

External links now default to going straight to the web page, rather than
showing a warning page first.

Improvements to the oaiserver, thanks to DL Consulting. Resumption token
support has been added, and it now validates against online validation
tools.

Greenstone now compiles for Linux on 64-bit platforms.  All programs are
compiled natively for 64-bit, except for those that rely on mg/mgpp, which
still need to be 32-bit compiled.  As part of the configure/make
process, the
correct flags are automatically set, so from the developers point of
view you
compile up Greenstone on a 64-bit machine the exact same way you do for any
other Unix-based system.

Greenstone should now compile with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, thanks
to DL
Consulting.

FLI - Fedora Librarian Interface
---------------------------------

The Fedora Librarian Interface (FLI) is very much like GLI in that it
allows
you to gather together your documents. It then uses Greenstone's ability to
convert documents into the FedoraMETS format so that these can be ingested
(put into) a Fedora repository. The process of building a collection
using FLI
exports documents into a repository maintained by a Fedora server rather
than
one maintained by Greenstone. In order to use FLI, you will need to have
Fedora installed. More information on how to install Fedora and set it up
to work with FLI, and how to run FLI itself, can be found in the documents:

1. Installing Fedora (2.2.1/3.0) and Fedora-related information
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/InstallingFedora

2. Installing Fedora Generic Search (to provide full-text indexing and
searching capabilities for a Fedora repository)

Hi Julian.

 From memory, I don't think Hierarchy classifier makes an A-Z list. 
However, there is an option -hlist_at_top to make the first level 
horizontal. I think if you used this, then added an extra level at the 
start of your hierarchy, then you could achieve what you want.

eg your metadata would look like:
A|Animals|Mammals|Cats

THis would mean modifying your metadata, so may not be a very good 
solution if you have entered it all already.

I don't think any other classifier uses hierarchical metadata.

Regards, Katherine

Hi Ehab

What version of Greenstone are you using? I have just tried it with your 
marc file. It was a bit strange, at first I had the same problem as you, 
but then it seemed to be working.

Can you please download the new greenstone release, 2.81 (not an rc 
version), from www.greenstone.org/download.

Then you'll need to recompile to enable the z3950 server, in the same 
way that you did for your current version.

Then please build the collection in the new version and see if it works 
for you.

One thing you can check is to look at the archive files for the 
collection (gsdl/collect/collname/archives) You should see some of the 
metadata from the marc record in the doc.xml file.

Currently the z3950 server does a mapping from dublin core metadata to 
marc fields, but it must have no namespace. ie the metadata needs to be 
Title, Subject etc, not dc.Title, dc.Subject etc.
We will be looking to change this in a future release.

Once you have done all this, please let me know how you get on.  I'd 
like to make sure that it is working for you.

Regards,
Katherine

Hi Renate

If you have 39 documents or less, then the DateList doesn't make the 
horizontal list of dates.  The dates that are displayed vertically down 
the page are actually special formatting of the document items. You can 
get rid of this using the -no_special_formatting option to DateList.
When you add more documents, the classifier is generating the horizontal 
list of dates, and the list of docs is split up by those dates. I 
suspect that your format statement is a bit wrong, and is making the 
horizontal links invisible. And because you are only looking at one set 
of docs, then all the other ones are not there.

I have just looked at your collect.cfg file 
(http://196.20.16.213/gsdl/collect/prospect/etc/collect.cfg)
You have used dc.Title in the HList format statement instead of Title. 
Classifier bookshelves or horizontal links only have Title metadata, not 
dc.Title.

Try changing the format statement, add another document and see how it 
looks.

Katherine

Hi Martin

I am not sure that I understand exactly what you are trying to do. I 
would be good if you can send your collect.cfg file for the collection, 
and either a link to the page or a screenshot of what it looks like now, 
and tell us which bits you want to get rid of.

The greenstone wiki and mailing list archives are the main places for 
info. I think that all our info would be linked to from the wiki, its 
just a matter of finding it :-) (if its there).

Katherine

I am very pleased to announce that the University of Waikato has been  
awarded US$50,000 for the Greenstone project within the Third Annual  
Mellon Awards for Technology Collaboration (see http:// 
matc.mellon.org/press-release). This competition is meant "to  
recognize important organizational contributions to open source  
projects which currently or potentially provide significant benefits  
to at least one traditional Mellon constituency (higher education,  
especially the arts and humanities; libraries; museums; arts  
organizations; and nature conservation)." We understand that the  
committee was primarily impressed by Greenstone's impact in the  
developing world as testified by many users who supported our  
candidacy online, thanks to all of you who contributed recommendations.

The University intends to use the award to further the Greenstone  
community of developers and users, particularly in developing  
countries. This will involve improving the documentation, making  
tutorial videos, and stimulating the development of Greenstone  
capabilities and user groups in developing countries.

As part of this effort we invite proposals from the Greenstone  
community in developing countries for small grants (US$1000 to US 
$5000) which will be awarded in 2009 according to the following  
criteria:

* one-time assistance (not a continuing subvention) for a project  
which will lead to sustainable follow-up: examples of activity could  
be organisation of user meetings or training workshops, expert  
missions for training and advice (particularly exchange of expertise  
within a given region or country), institutional exchanges or user  
services;
* priority to regional networks and to countries and institutions in  
greatest need (normally grants will not available to individuals, but  
there could be exceptions);
* priority to projects which are partially self-funded or partially  
funded by third parties.

Detailed proposals should be addressed to John Rose  
<john.rose1@free.fr>, Research Associate, University of Waikato, who  
will correspond with the submitting parties as needed to refine their  
proposals. Awardees will be expected to submit a detailed evaluation  
report at the conclusion of their projects.

I've also tried installing the -2.81-linux-binary.tar.gz version. That unzips fine, but I can't find the install.sh file that

Any help on getting 2.81 installed would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sean

The binary installer doesn't run in a text environment, as you have found.
Use the tar gz version. Just unpack it. Then you'll need to edit the 
cgi-bin/gsdlsite.cfg file by hand.
And set up your Apache in the same way you did last time.

How to do these two things can be found at
http://wiki.greenstone.org/wiki/index.php/Setting_up_an_Apache_Web_Server_for_Greenstone_2_Walkthrough
Step 8.

There is no install.sh file any more.
We need to make specific instructions like these available in the release

Regards,
Katherine

Subject: [greenstone-users] Web library installation of gsdl 2.81
Message-ID: <COL118-DS16B80BF934C3C06C9F7088B6E70@phx.gbl>

Hi,

I could not find out the choice selector for Web Library mode of  installation in gsdl 2.81 when I tried to install Web library installation over  the Local library installation in the same computer. 
Is it possible to install gsdl 2.81 in the web library mode using Apache as we had been installing earlier versions ?

Hi,

 

 GS 2.81 installer has both things (web and local) by default. You cant
choose what to install.

 

Bye.

Dear Mr. Rajasekharan

Greenstone 2.81 will install both the web library and local
library together. You can install Apache and connect the Greenstone as you
have done for the earlier version. GLI will use the local library by
default. To get GLI to use the web library, rename server.exe in the
Greenstone2 directory to something else.

With regards
