Dear Seb,

 

Thanks a lot for the quick reply!

 

It might not be possible to comment the fields out if the installation is through BAZAAR. But I can try to download the TAR and install manually to see what happen.

 

Best Wishes,

Jia

 

 

 

Hi Jia,

Thanks for reporting this issue, I had overlooked the fact that people may have R4R installed.

If you can access your repository via SSH, simply edit the file /opt/eprints3/archives/<ARCHIVE_ID>/cfg/cfg.d/zz_ref.pl and comment the conflicting fields. Everything should then be ok.

I'll be issuing a bug fix tomorrow.

Seb.

Dear All,

 

I have seen there is a new version of REF2014 plug-in released last Thursday which can be installed via BAZAAR.

 

However, I got the same error when trying to install via BAZAAR. In the homepage of REF2014 plug-in, there says the REF2014 plug-in can be used parallel with R4R, but unfortunately it’s not true unless the duplicate fields get renamed. Could someone advice how to resolve the conflict?

 

Best Wishes,

Jia

 

 

 

Dear All,

 

Sorry to bother again. I was trying to install REF2014 plug-in on our demo server which runs 3.3.8. However, when I tried to upgrade the database schema. I got a system error complaining about a duplicate field “user.dob” as followed:

I have checked my database and indeed there exists a field “dob” in the “user” table already because of R4R plug-in.

 

After I compared the “zz_r4r.pl” file (R4R plug-in) and “zz_ref.pl” (REF2014 plug-in), I can see several duplicate fields defined (not only the “dob” field):

 

 

I wonder how I can resolve this issue while keeping the R4R plug-in which I found is useful. Shall I simply comment out the duplicate field definitions in the “zz_ref.pl” file and continue? If so, would it influence the using of REF2014 plug-in? Thank you so much for the kind help in advance!

 

Best Wishes,

Jia
