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 be configured to be delivered via the SOLR service, if so desired.
  • The browse indexes were previously only delivered via the PostgreSQL/Oracle database service.

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

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.
