[EP-tech] Re: Problem with the RSS plugin


Hi Malcolm:

You can copy .pm files to:

1- perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/ .... -> usually considered "hacky" as you're changing the core. It will work but as PERL told you, you need to first "use" the plugin somewhere (usually this is done in perl_lib/EPrints.pm -> add "use EPrints::Plugin::Export::ALLRSS" there and restart the web server). But see, you've just patched a core file (EPrints.pm).

2- (EPrints 3.1+) local archive: archives/{id}/cfg/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Export/ -> nothing else required

3- (EPrints 3.3+) the bazaar directory: lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Export/ - this time you need to explicitly enable that plugin in your local conf, something like:

$c->{plugins}{"Export::ALLRSS"}{params}{disable} = 0;

and restart the web server.

If you have only one repository running in your EPrints install, I would go for option #2. If more than one, option #3.

Seb.

Hi,

 

I'm having a problem installing the RSS plugin 

 

http://files.eprints.org/492

 

I get the error:

Can't locate object method "new" via package "EPrints::Plugin::Export::ALLRSS
" (perhaps you forgot to load "EPrints::Plugin::Export::ALLRSS"?) at /usr/share/eprints3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin
Factory.pm line 242.\n

 

I thought I just had to copy it to the perl_lib/Eprints/Plugin/Export folder, but am I missing something?

 

Thanks,

Malcolm.
