Hi Nick,

 

Did you get the user email notification of embargo release working?

I’m asking because I may also need to get this working on our repository.

Hi Nick,

The routine that removes the embargo is …./eprints3 /bin/lift_embargos  - usually configured in the crontab to run.  It doesn’t have a facility to email you built in, but if you set the verbose flag it will output a line to say it is removing the embargo from item XXXXXX, which crontab may then email to your eprints user on your server – how you then get that email though…

just put the lift embargo in the crontab, and alias the user to your mail in /etc/aliases

 

 

 

 

Is there a way for eprints to notify me when an embargo expires?

 

Thanks

 

Nick
