SUNScholar/Install DSpace/S02

Step 2. Get DSpace version 1.8.2

Click here to download the DSpace source code. Upload it to the dspace user home folder using WinSCP or Filezilla.

For convenience you may download from our library linux web server by typing the following when logged in as the dspace user on the server..

wget http://web.lib.sun.ac.za/dspace/dspace-1.8.2-src-release.tar.gz

Please Note:

Stellenbosch University Library stays one major version behind the current DSpace version because we do not have expert java programmers to fix bugs.

So we stay super stable by staying one version behind the latest version.

We let those with expert programming resources fix bugs in the latest version while we enjoy the stable benefits of the previous version.
