Bug fixes

BibCirculation
- Fixes the number of copies of an item that is displayed in the
  circulation UI item search. (#2018) (PR #3574)

  could fail when the resumptiontoken was empty.
OAIRepository
- Fixes default configuration of CFG_OAI_METADATA_FORMATS, correctly
  assigning the XSD and XML namespace to the corresponding metadata
  prefix.
WebAccess
- Improves the WebAccess FireRole documentation by providing
  corrected example on how to use groups in FireRole definitions.
  (#3107) (#3225)
WebSearch
- Takes into account the sort order when searching, even if no
  specific sort or rank method is used. (PR #3564)
- Adds the proper language parameter on tabs if the user has
  selected different language from the browser preferred. (#308) (PR
  #3395)
- Fixes a search regression test case that looks for records added
  in the past 10 years. This test started to fail because some
  records are declared with date added (see MARC tag 005) before
  1. Amends the test case to use safer value of last 100 years
    instead of last 10 years.
- Fixes asynchronous external collection getter tests following the
  update of the Invenio project web site.
WebSession
- Removes pending groups from user info object. (#3526)

  harvesting it is plausible to check for external OAI-IDs not only
  in the field specified by CFG_BIBUPLOAD_EXTERNAL_OAIID_TAG but
  also in CFG_OAI_ID_FIELD. (#2812) (PR #2816)
crossrefutils
- Correctly URL-encodes the query sent to CrossRef in order to

invenio - Invenio v0.0.9

Published by tiborsimko over 9 years ago

Hello

The CDSware v0.0.9 was released on August 1st, 2002.

What's new:
   * first "public" alpha release of CDSware
   * recently standardized Library of Congress' MARC XML schema adopted
     in all CDSware modules as the new default internal XML file format
     (BibConvert, BibFormat, BibUpload, WebSubmit, WebSearch)
   * support for OAI-PMH v2.0 in addition to OAI-PMH v1.1 (WebSearch)
   * search interface now honors multiple output formats per collection
     (BibFormat, WebSearch)
   * search interface now honors search fields, search options, and
     sort options from the database config tables (WebSearch,
     WebSearch Admin)
   * search interface now honors words indexes from the database config
     tables (BibWords, WebSearch)
   * easy reformatting of already uploaded bibliographic records via
     web admin. tool (BibFormat Admin/Reformat Records)
   * new submission form field type ("response") allowing
     greater flexibility (WebSubmit) [thanks to Frank Sudholt]
   * demo site "Atlantis Institute of Science" updated to demonstrate:
     Pictures collection of photographs; specific per-collection
     formats; references inside Articles and Preprints; "cited by"
     search link; published version linking; subject category
     searching; search within, search options, sort options in the web
     collection pages.

Download:
   <http://cdsware.cern.ch/download/cdsware-0.0.9.tar.gz>

Notes:
   As of release v0.0.9 the CDSware uses recently standardized MARC
   XML schema provided by the Library of Congress. The default
   configurations of nearly all CDSware modules have been changed
   accordingly. We recommend you to install from scratch rather than
   over an existing previous v0.01preX installations. However, in case
   you want to keep your existing configuration and data, please feel
   free to contact us for assistance.

Known problems:
   The admin interface is missing some functionality (e.g. there is no
   BibWords Admin yet).  The interaction between WebSubmit and
   WebSearch is missing some functionality (e.g. search pages are not
   updated automatically when new documents are submitted).  We plan
   to concentrate on these problems now.

What's next:
   The v0.0.9 release should be the last one in the v0.0.x series. We
   plan to complete various missing admin interface functionality and
   to release v0.1 during August 2002.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

CDSware v0.3.2 (DEVELOPMENT) was released on May 12th, 2004.

What's new:
-----------

 *) admin area improved: all the modules have now Admin Guides; some
    guides were updated, some are still to be updated (WebHelp,
    BibConvert, BibFormat, BibIndex, BibSched, WebAlert, WebSession,
    WebSubmit, BibEdit, BibHarvest, BibRank, BibUpload, WebAccess,
    WebBasket, WebSearch, WebStyle)

 *) initial release of the WebSearch Admin interface (WebSearch)

 *) initial release of the BibRank Admin interface (BibRank)

 *) search cache expiry after insertion of new records (WebSearch)

 *) search engine now does on-the-fly formatting via BibFormat CLI
    call to handle restricted site situations (WebSearch)

 *) webcoll default verbosity decreased for efficiency (WebSearch)

 *) added BibConvert configuration example for converting XML Dublin
    Core to XML MARC (BibConvert)

 *) BibConvert knowledge base mode extended by various case-sensitive
    matching possibilities (BibConvert)

 *) fixed various problems with fulltext file names and the submission
    from MS Windows platform (WebSubmit)

 *) fixed problem with bibupload append mode not updating XML MARC
    properly (BibUpload)

  <http://cdsware.cern.ch/download/cdsware-0.3.2.tar.gz.sig>

Notes: 
------

 *) This DEVELOPMENT release is recommended to all users of prior
    v0.1.x and v0.3.x versions.  Users of the STABLE v0.0.9 release
    are invited to test it and let us know their comments.

 *) This release contains some minor SQL table updates.  If you are
    upgrading from v0.3.0 or v0.3.1, then after you build CDSware:

      $ ./configure --prefix=[...]
      $ vi config/config.wml
      $ make

    you have to run:

      $ make update-v0.3.1-tables

    and then continue as usual:

      $ make install
      $ sudo apachectl restart

 *) This release contains important fix for BibUpload append mode.
    Note that BibUpload append mode is normally not used by WebSubmit
    or any other tools, so most probably you do not have to pay
    attention to this problem.  You might be affected only if you have
    expressly used BibUpload append mode (``bibupload -a'') in the
    command line.  If this is indeed the case, then you have to
    recreate XML MARC and other formats of your metadata.  The steps
    to take to recreate formats for your records (say 123) would go
    like this:

      $ echo "TRUNCATE TABLE bibfmt;" | ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
      $ wget -O z.xml 'http://your.site/search.py?id=1&idb=123&of=xm&rg=500'
      $ bibupload -r z.xml
      $ bibreformat -oHB,HD,HP,HC
      $ bibsched

    Please contact our mailing list if you want to know more.  

 *) This release contains an initial version of the WebSearch Admin
    Interface.  It is fully functional but has not been fully tested
    under CERN production conditions yet.

 *) As of this release, all CDSware releases will be cryptographically
    signed.  See the INSTALL file for more details.

Known problems:
---------------

 *) Ranking engine is fully functional from the admin-level point of
    view, but the end-user ranking functionality still has to be
    plugged into the search interface.

 *) The admin-level functionality for several modules is not fully
    developed yet.

 *) Fulltext file storage management is not yet linked with the
    metadata management.

What's next: 
------------

 *) Fixing the problems mentioned above.  

 *) Introducing ranking methods and international collection names
    into the search engine.  

 *) Developing BibIndex for better phrase indexing and browsing.

 *) Developing clearer relations and dependencies between metadata
    records and fulltext files.

 *) This DEVELOPMENT release is recommended to all users of prior
    v0.1.x and v0.3.x versions.  Users of the STABLE v0.0.9 release
    are invited to test it and let us know their comments.

 *) Due to popular demand, search engine behaviour has changed on
    stage 4-2-1 in the following way: when no hits are found in the
    collection selected by the user, but there are some hits in other
    public collections, then do not show these hits anymore to the end
    user, but rather propose link to them only.  (Often users were
    confused as to why their collection choice wasn't respected.)

 *) This release contains new international names for fields such as
    author, title.  If you haven't configured previously your fields
    and their international field names manually, then you may want to
    insert them now via commands like:

        $ echo "SELECT count(*) FROM fieldname;" | dbexec ## check if output is 0
        $ grep "INTO fieldname V" ./modules/miscutil/sql/tabfill.sql | dbexec

    See the content of the concerned file for details.  You may also
    configure them manually via BibIndex Web Admin interface.

Known problems:
---------------

 *) The admin-level functionality for several modules is not fully
    developed yet.

 *) Fulltext file storage management is not yet linked with the
    metadata management.

What's next:
------------

 *) Fixing the problems mentioned above.

 *) Introducing `find similar' and `sort by relevance' functionalities
    into the search engine.

 *) Developing BibIndex for better phrase indexing and browsing.

 *) Developing clearer relations and dependencies between metadata
    records and fulltext files.

Upgrade notes:
--------------

To upgrade from CDSware v0.3.3, please follow about these steps:

   - Stop bibsched daemon and all submission procedures and write
     operations.  For example, you may want to disable the site
     completely.  Then backup your current database and CDSware files
     in the installation directory.

   - Untar new sources and rerun configure --prefix=... with old
     parameters.

   - Merge your old config.wml with the new one.  There are new
     options in the new config.wml, so it is not sufficient just to
     copy over your old config file.  However, the new config file
     only adds new options, so merging of your old file should be very
     straightforward.

   - Run make. 

   - Update your table structure with new definitions:

       $ make update-v0.3.3-tables

     If you are upgrading from previous releases, you have to run
     previous update-v0.3.0-tables and friends respectively first.
     (See Makefile.am for what these commands do.)

   - Update your table content with new definitions:

       . To activate ranking by word similarity, you have to run SQL
         statements related to rnkMETHOD tables, e.g. like this:

             $ echo "TRUNCATE rnkMETHOD; TRUNCATE rnkMETHODDATA;" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
             $ echo "TRUNCATE rnkMETHODNAME; TRUNCATE collection_rnkMETHOD;" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
             $ grep rnkMETHOD modules/miscutil/sql/tabfill.sql | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec

         or you can configure ranking methods via BibRank Admin
         interface.

       . The EXTRACT_EMAIL BibFormat UDF function has been fixed
         (thanks to Guido Pelzer) and you are advised to delete the
         old definition and enter the new one, e.g. like this:

             $ echo "DELETE FROM flxUDFS WHERE fname='EXTRACT_EMAIL';" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec
             $ grep "EXTRACT_EMAIL.*if" modules/miscutil/sql/tabfill.sql | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec

     By doing this your table definitions should be fully up to date.

   - Run make install and webcoll and then restart your Apache server.
     After that restart bibsched in the auto mode.  If you activated
     some ranking methods, then you have also tell bibsched to execute
     bibrank daemon periodically, for example:

        $ bibrank -s1h

     (See also ``HOWTO Run..'' documentation in the Admin Area.)

   - You are done. Check that everything is running fine.


Known problems:
---------------

 *) Several modules of the this release (e.g. the mail submission
    system) are experimental and not yet activated.  You may have a
    peek at what is planned, but please do not rely on them.

 *) The admin-level functionality for several modules is not fully
    developed yet.

 *) Fulltext file storage management is not yet linked with the
    metadata management.

 *) ElmSubmit module not yet activated.


What's next:
------------

 *) Fixing the problems mentioned above.

 *) Developing BibIndex for better phrase indexing and browsing.

 *) Developing clearer relations and dependencies between metadata
    records and fulltext files.

 *) Automatic reference extraction program. 

 *) Citation search and ranking.

 *) Download statistics and ranking.

Installation notes:
-------------------

Please follow the INSTALL file bundled in the distribution tarball.


Upgrade notes:
--------------

If you are upgrading from CDSware v0.5.0, then please follow these
steps:

   - New pre-requisite (optional): if you want to experiment with the
     automatic reference extraction from PDF fulltext files, then you
     have to check whether your pdftotext program is of version 3 or
     later.  (See the INSTALL file, item i.)  Note that you are fully
     free to skip this step now.

   - New pre-requisite (optional): if you want to experiment with the
     download and citation ranking alpha codebase, then we recommend
     you to firstly install Gnuplot, the command-line driven
     interactive plotting program.  (See the INSTALL file, item l.)
     Note that you are fully free to skip this step now.

   - New pre-requisite (optional): if you want to experiment with the
     new WebStat program for gathering usage statistics out of Apache
     log files, then you should firstly install a Common Lisp
     implementation.  (See the INSTALL file, item m.)  Note that you
     are fully free to skip this step now.

   - After optionally updating your prerequisites, launch the bibsched
     monitor and wait until all active bibsched tasks are finished.
     Then put bibsched daemon into manual mode.  Stop all submission
     procedures and other write operations: for example, you may want
     to switch your site read-only (set CFG_ACCESS_CONTROL_LEVEL_SITE
     to 1 in access_control_config.py and restart Apache) or you may
     want to stop Apache completely.

   - Optionally you may want to backup your current MySQL database and
     your CDSware installation directory.  (This step is not really
     mandatory for the 0.5.0 -> 0.7.0 transition, since the changes
     are of minor nature only.)

   - Untar new sources and rerun configure with old arguments.  

   - Merge your old config.wml with the new one.  (The old config.wml
     can be found in /path/to/cdsware/lib/wml/cdsware/config.wml.)
     There are some new options in the new config.wml, so it is not
     sufficient just to copy over your old config file.  However, the
     new config file only changes two-three language-related things in
     the beginning of the file, so merging of your old config.wml
     should be very straightforward.

   - Run make.

   - If you have edited your /path/to/cdsware/etc/ files during or
     since the last installation (for example to edit the stopwords
     list or configure language stemmers), then back it up now.

   - Run make install.

   - If you have backed up your old /path/to/cdsware/etc/ directory as
     mentioned above, then copy the backup over the freshly installed
     etc directory now.  The old etc directory should be usable `as
     is', unless you have configured bibrank to use the Swedish
     stemmer, in which case you should change the language code from
     `se' to `sv' in /path/to/cdsware/etc/bibrank/wrd.cfg.

   - Update your table structure with new definitions:

        $ make update-v0.5.0-tables

     If you are upgrading from previous releases, you have to run
     previous update-xxx-tables commands first, respectively.  (See
     Makefile.am for what these commands do, and check out old
     RELEASE-NOTES for previous releases.)

   - Run webcoll.  The update is done now.

   - The final stages are: re-enable write-access if you have disabled
     it in the previous steps; restart your Apache server; put
     bibsched back into the auto mode.  You are done.


Known problems:
---------------

 *) Several modules of the this release (e.g. the mail submission
    system, citation and download ranking) are experimental and not
    yet activated.  You may have a peek at what is planned, but please
    do not rely on them.

 *) The admin-level functionality for several modules is not fully
    developed yet.

 *) Fulltext file storage management is not yet linked with the
    metadata management.


What's next:
------------

 *) Fixing the problems mentioned above.

 *) Developing clearer relations and dependencies between metadata
    records and fulltext files.

 *) Introducing page templating to ease the customization of CDSware
    interface.

 *) Introducing a new tool for matching external XML MARC records
    against the database content.

Installation notes:
-------------------

Please follow the INSTALL file bundled in the distribution tarball.

Upgrade notes:
--------------

If you are upgrading from CDSware v0.7.0, then please follow the
following steps:

   - Launch the bibsched monitor and wait until all active bibsched
     tasks are finished.  Then put bibsched daemon into sleeping
     (manual) mode.

   - Stop all submission procedures and other write operations: for
     example, you may want to switch your site to read-only mode (set
     CFG_ACCESS_CONTROL_LEVEL_SITE to 1 in access_control_config.py
     and restart Apache) or you may want to stop Apache completely.

   - Optionally you may want to backup your current MySQL database and
     your CDSware installation directory.  (This step is not really
     mandatory for the 0.7.0 -> 0.7.1 transition, since the changes
     are of minor nature only.)

   - Untar new sources and rerun configure with old arguments (see
     /path/to/cdsware/lib/wml/cdsware/etc/build/config.nice).

   - Merge your old config.wml with the new one. (Your old config.wml
     can be found in /path/to/cdsware/lib/wml/cdsware/config.wml.)
     The only novelty in the new config.wml file is the introduction
     of the Catalan translation in the CDSNAMEINTL and CDSLANGS
     options, so that merging should be straightforward.  Note that
     you may directly reuse your old config.wml file in case you do
     not plan to provide your user interface in Catalan.

   - Run make.

   - If you have customized your /path/to/cdsware/etc/ files since the
     last installation (for example to edit the stopwords list or
     configure language stemmers), then back them up now.

   - Run make install.

   - If you have backed up your old /path/to/cdsware/etc/ directory as
     mentioned before, then restore your old etc files now.

   - Optionally update your tables with the new Catalan and Spanish
     field names:

        $ grep "'ca'" modules/miscutil/sql/tabfill.sql | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec  
        $ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='materia' \
                 WHERE value='' AND id_field=7 AND ln='es';" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec  
        $ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='división' \
                WHERE value='' AND id_field=11 AND ln='es';" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec  
        $ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='experimento' \
                WHERE value='' AND id_field=13 AND ln='es';" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec  
        $ echo "UPDATE fieldname SET value='registro núm.' \
                WHERE value='' AND id_field=14 AND ln='es';" | \
               ./modules/miscutil/bin/dbexec  

   - Optionally run webcoll to regenerate Catalan and Spanish search
     interface pages.

   - Re-enable write access if you have disabled it before and restart
     your Apache server.

   - Put the bibsched daemon back into the automatic mode.  You are
     done.
