Hi

 

Thank you for your input. I have managed to fix the previous issue. the plugin was pointing to a /usr/local/eprints/perl_lib directory while my installation is at /opt/eprints3/perl_lib/. Anyway changing that fixed the issue.

 

However I am now stuck with something else. I try to run the import_citationdata command and it outs this for me;

 

Starting EPrints Repository.

Connecting to DB ... done.

Ending EPrints Repository.

 

I suppose this command will import the citation numbers from google scholar into the eprints table in the gscholar fields for eprint ids listed in a file. But when I run a query it gives NULL. I have also included the pin <epc:print expr="scopus_impact"/> in my summary_page.xml but nothing is shown there.

 

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sheraaz

 

What version of EPrints are you running?

 

The first thing to check is that the plugin and its parent class are both in the correct location, e.g., /opt/eprints3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugins/Import/ and /opt/eprints3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugins/Import/CitationService/.

 

Then check that archive/cfg/cfg.d/gscholar.pl exists and defines search_cites and search_title functions.

 

You might want to check that the eprints user has permission to read all of those files.

 

After that check that WWW::Mechanize::Sleepy is installed.

 

Cheers

Mark

Hi there

 

I have setup the citation import plugin on my repository however when running the import_citationdata or update_citatationdata commands I ran into the following error

 

Starting EPrints Repository.

Connecting to DB ... done.

Plugin 'Import::CitationService::GScholar' not found.

Ending EPrints Repository.

 

I have tried to debug the import_citationdata  file and it seems it fails  at the below given code.

 

$plugin = $session->plugin(

                $pluginmap->{$datasetid},

                Handler => $handler,

                net_retry => {

                        max => $net_retry_max,

                        interval => $net_retry_interval,

                },

                parse_retry => {

                        max => $parse_retry_max,

                        interval => $parse_retry_interval,

                },

        );

 

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
