[EP-tech] Re: Importing files from another system

Hi John,

See an example attached - tested on 3.3.9, imported this way:
bin/import <REPO_ID> --enable-file-imports --enable-web-imports --user 1 --verbose eprint XML ./export2.xml 

Seb.
PS: in the attached XML, I replaced the URL of my dev machine with __REPO_URL__, change this to your repository URL.

Yep - that didn't work either :o\

According to this:
http://wiki.eprints.org/w/Import_From_URL
I was also missing a<files>  around the<file>.
I've added that and re-tried all the options, so far none work :o\

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,
John

Have you tried for local files

	<url>file:///path_to_file</url>

?

Nothing silly in the verbose output.

I can wget the file over http (when trying the http method), but even using the file from the local filesystem doesn't work :o\

run the command with --verbose --verbose and try to see what happen. Can you go to port 80 from the server to another server? Check your firewall settings.

Hi,
I'm trying to import files from another system, into EPrints.
I can either copy the files onto the server, or make them available over http.

In the XML, I've tried specifying (in an<eprints><eprint>   node)
<document>
	<file href="/path/to/my.pdf" />
</document>
   - or -
<document>
	<file>
		<url>http://url.of/my.pdf</url>
	</file>
</document>

And importing with:

bin/import ARCHIVENAME --enable-file-imports --enable-web-imports
--user 1 archive XML test.xml

Both import the metadata from the XML OK, but neither option attaches the file to the eprint.

What am I doing wrong - or will this even work?

Cheers,
John
