Thank David R. Newman
This works seamlessly after updating with the solution from the Github issue. Now the statistics are back up

Hi,

I think someone also reported a similar issue on this mailing list
recently.? If you add the prototypejs ingredient to your
EPRINTS_PATH/flavours/pub_lib/inc file, as well as reloading the web
server, if you initially loaded your EPrints repository in the same web
browser without adding prototypejs to your inc file, the _javascript_
(/_javascript_/auto-3.4.4.js) will be cached client-side. In most browser
you can clear this client-side cache with a hard refresh using the key
combination Ctrl+Shift+R. (You could also test loading your EPrints
repository again in private/incognito mode or in a different web browser).

If this does not work? It is worth loading in your web browser the
auto-generated _javascript_ file itself, which can be found by viewing the
source for the page and finding it in the page's <head>.- Check the
_javascript_ code displayed for the string "20_prototype.js".? If this is
not present, also try a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R)? of the _javascript_
'page' and search for the string "20_prototype.js" again.? If you still
cannot find it your may have some other issue preventing the _javascript_
from being updated.

3.4.4 introduced a timestamp to the _javascript_
(/_javascript_/auto-3.4.4.js) and CSS (/style/auto-3.4.4.css)
auto-generated file links, which are the amalgamation of various
_javascript_ or CSS files across the EPrints codebase's _javascript_/auto/
or style/auto/ directories.? E.g.

/_javascript_/auto-3.4.4.js?1664898850

However, the code that determines whether the link for auto-generated
_javascript_ file needs to update its timestamp, so web browsers will drop
their client cache automatically, does not take into account that new
_javascript_ files might be added by virtue of including a new
ingredient.? The timestamp is set based on the latest time any included
_javascript_ file was modified.? A newly added ingredient, may not have
any _javascript_ files that have been modified since the current timestamp
being used.? Therefore, the client cache will not be cleared despite the
auto-generated _javascript_ file having? changed to include extra
_javascript_ files. I have added a GitHub issue to investigate and fix this:


Regards

David Newman

Hi Agung,

Full-text is based on how many EPrints in the live archive have at least
one file uploaded.? There is not a requirement for the type of file
uploaded. Open access is based on whether at least one uploaded file for
an item is publicly downloadable.? Looking at the code, the Open access
percentage is based on all live items whether they have any uploaded
files.? So an item with no uploaded files would be considered not open
access.

Based on your percentages, all your live items have at least one file
uploaded but 1% or items do not have any files that are publicly
downloadable.

Regards

David Newman
