Hi all,

I'm trying to install and configure the citation-count plugin in my
EPrints 3.3.14 from: http://files.eprints.org/815/

I've tried to make things more tidy when installing it, so in my system,
the files I added looked like this:

~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/datasets_citation-count.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/eprint_fields_citation-count.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/gscholar.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/scapi.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/scapi.pl~
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/user_roles_citation-count.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/cfg.d/wos.pl
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/citations/citation/default.xml
~eprints/archives/myrepo/cfg/citations/eprint/summary_page.xml~
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/bin/import_citationdata
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/bin/import_citationdata~
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/bin/update_citationdata
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/bin/update_citationdata~
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/cfg/lang/en/phrases/citations.xml
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/DataObj/CitationDatum.pm
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/LogHandler.pm
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Import/CitationService.pm
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Import/CitationService/GScholar.pm
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Import/CitationService/Scopus.pm
~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Import/CitationService/WoS.pm

I've configured scopus (scapi.pl) with the codes that I was given. The
difference from what the plugin's installation instructions (found in
http://files.eprints.org/815/2/README) directed me to do is that I
haven't copied the files from the plugin's /lib directly to ~eprints/lib
folder, instead I've copied them in folders
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count and ~eprints/lib/plugins. When I tried
to run:

$ ./lib/epm/citation-count/bin/import_citationdata --verbose  myrepo scopus

I got no error message, but the command returned in a couple of seconds,
which is way too fast for my repo's size (~15K of eprints). So I
inserted a few print commands inside
~eprints/lib/epm/citation-count/bin/import_citationdata only to find out
that no $session->plugin is getting defined (line 232), so the code goes
into the condition of line 244 (if ( !defined( $plugin ) )) without
printing any message.

I've copied ~eprints/lib/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Import/CitationService*
to ~eprints/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/ in case this was the problem
without any luck.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks all in advance!

George.

Hi George,

I think my setup is just as yours.


My eprints home directory and all subdirectories and their files have UID=eprints and GID=eprints (www-data In your case).



The GID=eprints also has write access to all of the above.



All others only have read access (equivalent to your #chmod -R o-rwx ~eprints)


I achived this with the single command:                 chmod -R g=u /usr/share/eprints/





I think then that we have similar configurations except mine does not seem to be working.



I would be grateful for any additional thoughts/help/ideas.



Many thanks.


Best regards,
Kahena

Hi Kahena,

> The error I provided was seen the apache logs in /var/log/httpd/error_log and is therefore experienced by apache.
yes, but apache just triggers a perl script ... imho /opt/eprints3/Eprints/perl_lib/EPrints/EPM/Source.pm

Apache's configuration controls also the accessibility of your file system by its processes.

Your downloaded package contains an index, e.g. /opt/eprints3/Eprints/lib/epm/bookmarks/bookmarks.epmi, listing all relevant files and directories ...
So check all mentioned paths for existence, generate them, if necessary, or check the individual error causes due to permissions.

This pragmatic approach should get your installation running?

All,

I thought I'd share this little tidbit for those that ever wondered why their history tab on an EPrint only shows 10 items.

In /opt/eprints/perl_lib/EPrints/DataObj/EPrint.pm the function render_history is hard coded to only show the last 10 items in the history.  At least it is in our 3.2.8 installation.

If you want to be able to view all of the history (too bad there's no pagination for this) comment out the "limit => 10," line and restart your web server for the change to take effect.

You should now see all of the history for the EPrint.

I hope this helps someone else.
-Brian.

Hi Brian,

I believe this was fixed sometime (3.3.13 or 3.3.14?): https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues/219


Be careful rendering all the items - if you have things with big revision histories, they can take a bit of grunt to process...


Cheers,

John
