Re: [EP-tech] EPrints 3.3.14 vs 3.3.15

CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.

Hi James,

This would be my starting point:
https://github.com/eprints/eprints/compare/v3.3.14...v3.3.15

 

Some of our repositories had an accidental upgrade from 3.3.12 to 3.3.15 a year or so ago (the server team were meant to ignore the eprints RPM packages. Took me a while to work out what had actually gone on!).

 

There were a few things that we needed to change, but nothing major IIRC.

 

Cheers,

John

Hi All,

 

We are currently on EPrints version 3.3.14. We have wanted to upgrade to 3.4 for a good while now, but due to REF, COVID, REF extension and various issues around RT2 we have delayed.

 

We were told our version of eprints should work with RT2, but as it stands it looks like the earliest version of EPrints that RT2 will work on is 3.3.15. Our "upgrade plan" for Elements, EPrints and the the repository server OS is centred around this RT2 upgrade, so as you may imagine this is causing me some concern.

 

Can anybody advise on the differences between 3.314 and 3.3.15 (or point me to any good info). To be on 3.3.15 is it a big upgrade or essentially adding some files/changing a few bits? I would ideally like to stick to our current upgrade plan as getting here has been like herding cats at times.

 

Thanks,

James
