WARNING:

Browse by Title Bug

After an upgrade (4.2 to 5.2) the following system bug appeared.

It is recommended that you upgrade to DSpace 5.3.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • With DSpace versions =>3.X, the browse indexes can now be delivered via the SOLR service, if so desired.
  • The browse indexes were previously only delivered via the PostgreSQL/Oracle database service.

Old Index Purge for DSpace =>5.X

If during your upgrade to DSpace =>3.X, you decide to use the SOLR service to deliver indexes, then you need to purge the old PostgreSQL/Oracle database indexes.

A new command has been introduced with DSpace =>5.X. See below for an example.

$HOME/bin/dspace index-db-browse -f -d

See step 11 of: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Upgrading+DSpace

Old Index Purge for DSpace <=4.X

Check that you have a backup of the database before doing any purging. You have been warned.

Step 1 - Remove "communities2item" table

Login into the server as the dspace user and then type the following;

sudo -i
su - postgres
psql dspace
DELETE from communities2item;
\q
exit
exit
exit

Step 2 - Remove all "bi_" tables

I used pgadmin to do a "cascade drop" of all the bi_* tables, where bi = browse index.

Introduction

The browse indexes for DSpace can be extensively configured. The configuration allows you to take control of the indexes you wish to browse, and how you wish to present the results.

For DSpace 5.X

For DSpace 4.X

For DSpace 3.X
