title2013-May-3: New Release of Replication Task Suite

On May 3, 2013, two new versions of the Replication Task Suite (RTS) were released:

  • RTS, version 3.01 - compatible with DSpace 3.x releases (this release is nearly identical to the below 1.1 release, except for minor DSpace 3.x compatibility fixes)
  • RTS, version 1.1 - bug-fix release, compatible with DSpace 1.8.x releases.  This fixes several small bugs (namely with the event consumer utilized during Automatic Replication).  The exact fixes between 1.0 and 1.1 are detailed in Pull Request #7 and Pull Request #8.
    • To upgrade to RTS 1.1 from 1.0, simply change your pom.xml (see Installation on DSpace 1.8.x) to reference 'dspace-replicate' version 1.1.  Then rebuild DSpace & re-run 'ant update'.   Your existing RTS configuration files will still work with RTS 1.1.

Replication Task Suite VersionSupported DSpace Version(s)Supported InterfacesNotes
1.1DSpace version 1.8.xXMLUI and/or commandlineHighly recommended to use either DSpace 1.8.1 or 1.8.2. DSpace 1.8.0 has a known bug where running a Replication Task will always return a NullPointerException - see DS-1077
3.01DSpace version 3.xXMLUI and/or commandlineThe 3.0 stable version of the Replication Task Suite is nearly identical to the 1.1 stable version. It just includes minor bug fixes to ensure the Replication Task Suite is compatible with the new DSpace 3.x API.

...

  1. In your DSpace Source directory ([dspace-src]), you will need to modify the following POM file:

    • [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/additions/pom.xml (This POM will ensure that the "dspace-replicate" dependency is made available to commandline and ALL DSpace interfaces)

  2. For this pom.xml file, add the following <dependency> section at the end of the existing <dependencies> section (just before the closing </dependencies> tag).

    Code Block
    <dependencies>
    ...

	<!-- Adding this dependency will install the Replication Task Suite Addon -->
	<dependency>
   		<groupId>org.dspace</groupId>
   		<artifactId>dspace-replicate</artifactId>
   		<version>3.0<1</version>
	</dependency>
</dependencies>

  3. Once you've finished modifying both pom.xml files, rebuild DSpace by running the following from your [dspace-src]/dspace/ folder:

    Code Block
    mvn clean package
  4. Follow the instructions in the Configuration section below in order to enable & configure the Replication Task Suite Add-On.
    1. You may wish to ensure these configurations exist in your [dspace-src]/dspace/config/ directory.  That way they will be auto-installed/copied whenever you run "ant update" (see next step).

  5. You will need to update your existing DSpace 3.x installation, by running the following from your [dspace-src]/dspace/target/dspace-[version]-build/ directory

    Code Block
    ant update
    Note

    Alternatively, if you don't want to do a full DSpace update, you can just update your existing binaries & webapps by running the following two commands:

    • ant update_code (Updates the existing [dspace]/lib/ directory)
    • ant update_webapps (Updates the existing [dspace]/webapp/ directory)
