[EP-tech] Re: Error downloading Romeo autocomplete file from eprints.org

Hi all,
In the end, is there a simple way to retrieve and update the romeo.autocomplete file? Does someone at Eprints can update the data to the following address: http://romeo.eprints.org/romeo_journals.autocomplete
This will make life easier for administrators! Access via the API is much too long. 

Thanks,

Jean-Marie

I'm sure you're right Alan.

SHERPA/RoMEO proper aquires its ISSNs from publishers' websites, and they often have em-dash and en-dash instead of a hyphen (usually thanks to Microsoft auto-formating). We're pretty good at catching these, although the odd ISSN error does occasionally slip through. I checked yesterday and found just 15 dodgy ISSNs, which I then duly corrected. Should you spot any more in the future, please send feedback to romeo@sherpa.ac.uk for our attention.

Best regards

Peter

Hi John,
At an educated guess, that looks a bit like a character set issue, possibly whether the ISSN is listed in the file with a hyphen or an em-dash (or an en-dash) and isn’t translating correctly into (or out of) UTF-8.
I currently have a similar issue with some internal data feeds causing me all manner of similar problems!

Hi,
I’ve just tried – downloaded OK for me. If you want a copy some other way, let me know.

One thing I did notice in the file:
Some ISSNs are fine:
<li id="for:value:component:_issn">0091-7613</li>

Some look ‘interesting’:
<li id="for:value:component:_issn">0734&acirc;��7324</li>
or:

<li id="for:value:component:_issn">0734&acirc;<80><93>7324</li>

Looking at the Sherpa API record for this journal: http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/api29.php?issn=0734-7324, there doesn’t look to be anything wrong.

I’m not sure what processing happens to turn the romeo data into the autocomplete data - can someone at EPS explain what’s going on?
Cheers,
John

I’m getting HTTP 502 or 504 responses when requesting the Romeo autocomplete file from http://romeo.eprints.org/romeo_journals.autocomplete since 26/10. Our last successful download would have been 19/10.



I assume that others are having the same problem?  Does anyone know if it’s being addressed?



Cheers
