[EP-tech] Re: Preservation toolkit - triggering classification

Rory,

There should be a "cron" event on the indexer (which you can find via "admin" -> "status"). Note that if you have failed droid classification events on the indexer you will need to remove all of these as the cron script calls create_unique() which won't create a new event over a failed one, this is a bug.

Cheers

Dave T

Hello all,

Having a bit of trouble getting some objects classified using the preservation toolkit in EP 3.3.6

The allow_droid_classification_control appears to be ignored (according to the screen and some grepping) so there is no button to press.

# Option to enable interface buttons to manually start classification scans, normally this process would just be controlled by a cron job.
$c->{"allow_droid_classification_control"} = 1;

I was wondering what the mentioned cron would look like? The bazaar package does not drop any scripts in bin to run, so is there a neat new way to trigger events via cron? It doesn't appear to be happening automatically.

Also FYI I had to patch the Droid epm. lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Screen/EPMC/Droid.pm There is a move() in there that was copying just the DROID directory from tmp and none of the java-y bits within. This may be the way RHEL behaves with File::Copy::move (Maybe debian invokes it in a more mv-like way)

I fixed it by using File::Copy::Recursive::rmove

There may be a less awkward method, but that worked for me.

Cheers,

Rory
