Example Value

handle.canonical.prefix = http://hdl.handle.net/
handle.canonical.prefix = ${dspace.url}/handle/

Informational Note:

Canonical Handle URL prefix. By default, DSpace is configured to use http://hdl.handle.net/ as the canonical URL prefix when generating dc.identifier.uri during submission, and in the 'identifier' displayed in item record pages. If you do not subscribe to CNRI's handle service, you can change this to match the persistent URL service you use, or you can force DSpace to use your site's URL, e.g. handle.canonical.prefix = ${dspace.url}/handle/. Note that this will not alter dc.identifer.uri metadata for existing items (only for subsequent submissions).

Example Value

handle.prefix = 1234.56789

Informational Note:

The default installed by DSpace is 123456789 but you will replace this upon receiving a handle from CNRI.

Example Value:

handle.dir = ${dspace.dir}/handle-server

Informational Note:

The default files, as shown in the Example Value is where DSpace will install the files used for the Handle Server.
