Re: [EP-tech] Cannot add new phrase in Phrase Editor

Hi Ilina Syazwani Musa,

Good that at least editing the phrases through editing phrase files at the command line works.  I have look through the downloads of the pages you sent me separately and I cannot figure out why you phrase editor is behaving like this.  The _javascript_ for the phrase editor page looks consistent with a standard repository.  I cannot see anything in the page before or after adding/editing the phrase that gives a clue to why the admin menu appears in the phrase editor listing.  As the phrase editor is _javascript_ with AJAX based I can only assume there is some errant _javascript_ somewhere that is causing this issue.  However, from the files you sent me I cannot see any _javascript_ beyond the standard I would expect for a new 3.4.1 repository. 

Sorry I could not be of more help but even if this was my repository and I had complete access to debug it, I think I would be struggling to get to the bottom of this issue.

Regards

David Newman

Hi David Newsman and everyone,

I've tried to edit the original phrase in the Phrase Editor page, but whenever I click the "save" button, it still displays the menu bar. I have to edit the original phrase and add new phrases through zz_webcfg.xml and local.xml. It works.

This is the result for permission for zz_webcfg.xml and command "ps aux | grep httpd"

permission file xml.JPG

SELinux is "disabled" and SELINUXTYPE = targeted.

I'm not sure why my repo looks like that, but since it's working and functioning now, so I guess the case is closed. Thank you for your help.

Hi Ilina Syazwani Musa,

zz_webcfg.xml is the file that would be changed if Add New Phrase was working.  You can add new phrases to this file in the form:

<epp:phrase id="PHRASE_NAME">PHRASE TEXT</epp:phrase>

Subsituting PHRASE_NAME and PHRASE TEXT as appropriate.  This needs to go within the epp:phrases XML block.  Ideally below the XML comment "This file is...".  You can also add epp:phrase lines for existing phrases to this file and it will override the current value.  The zz prefix means it will be loaded last and that is why it can override pre-existing phrases.

One other thought as to why you may be having this issue is that the permissions for this file (zz_webcfg.xml) do not allow it to be written to by the websever.  Please could you tell me what permissions you have set ("ls -l zz_webcfg.xml"), also what user is the webserver running under "ps aux | grep httpd" (for RedHat/Fedora/CentOS) of "ps aux | grep apache" (for Debian/Ubuntu).  Beyond this, do you have SELinux enabled, you can test this by running the command getenforce at the command line.  If this command is not recognised, then you do not have SELinux installed, which is likely the case with Debian/Ubuntu operating systems.

Hi David Newman and everyone,

The zz_webcfg.xml looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE phrases SYSTEM "entities.dtd">
<epp:phrases xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:epp="http://eprints.org/ep3/phrase" xmlns:epc="http://eprints.org/ep3/control">

  <!-- This file is used to add phrases from the phrase editor screen -->

</epp:phrases>

I do not change anything in this file. If I cannot add new phrases in that page, which file I can add them manually inside the code? Can anyone give me the example? I want to add a new item, "exampaper".

Thank you.

Hi Ilina Syazwani Musa,

Check the file EPRINTS_PATH/archives/ARCHIVE_NAME/cfg/lang/en/phrases/zz_webcfg.xml and see what appears in this file, probably towards the end but if this is a new repository I expect this file will be quite short.  EPRINTS_PATH is the path you installed EPrints under (probably /opt/eprints3/) ARCHIVE_NAME is the ID you gave to your repository archive when you created, whichi s probably the only sub-directory under EPRINTS_PATH/archives/ directory.  It looks like somehow the pin for that EPrints menu is get added to the listing of phrases.  I am not sure why this would happen in a newly installed repository.  It is not something I have seen before and I have worked with quite a few different 3.4.1 repositories.

Hi David Newman and everyone,

Actually my menu is already displayed in the correct place as you can see in this picture below.

Before
phrase editor before.JPG

I've tried to insert a new phrase such as 'eprint_tyname_exampaper' but after I clicked the 'Add New Phrase' button, it showed the menu bar, not the textbox to insert the new identifier. Here, after I clicked twice the 'Add New Phrase' button, then, the systems show two lines of menu bar. I did not do any customization for any files yet so I don't know why it happened like this.

Any idea? Thank you.

Hi Ilina Syazwani Musa,

One thing that looks odd here os that your menu and search bar looks be displaying in the wrong place, (inside the listing of phrases that can be edited) I am not quite sure why this is.  However, in its self this should not stop you from adding new phrases.  What value did you enter into the text box next to the "Add New Phrase" button before clicking on that button?  If you did not enter any value (i.e. an ID for the new phrase) then a new phrase will not be created.

Hi there,

I've just installed eprints 3.4.1 for my organisation. This is not the first time I'm using the Eprints since we already installed the older version of eprints for our institutional repositories.

Right now, I want to customize this repo. However, when I click 'add new phrase' in the Phrase Editor page, it does not display the correct interface. It shows exactly as tab menus as shown below. So I cannot insert the new phrase for my repo. Which file I have to edit this error?

Thank you.
