Hello to everybody

 

I work at the University of Balearic Islands in Spain.

A few months ago we published a greenstone based digital library accessible at

 

http://ibdigital.uib.es/

 

 

Now I'm trying to activate the Greenstone OAI server. I have been 

working on the oai.cfg file in the etc directory that you can read at the end of this email.

 

The problem is that when I have tryed to validate our baseURL: 

http://ibdigital.uib.es/gsdl/cgi-bin/oaiserver

 

using the test of the Open Archives Initiative - Data Provider Registration 

(http://www.openarchives.org/data/registerasprovider.html) I get this 

message:

 

---------------------------------------------------

Checking Identify response

Request: GET http://ibdigital.uib.es/gsdl/cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=Identify

 

Administrator email address eduard.delvalle@uib.es

 

[PASS] Correctly reports OAI-PMH protocol version 2.0

 

[FAIL] baseURL supplied 'http://ibdigital.uib.es/gsdl/cgi-bin/oaiserver' does not 

match the baseURL in the Identify response '/oaimain'. The 

baseURL you enter must EXACTLY match the baseURL returned in the 

Identify response. It must match in case (http://Wibble.org/ does not 

match http://wibble.org/) and include any trailing slashes etc.

 

[PASS] Datestamp granularity is 'days'

 

[PASS] earliestDatestamp is 1970-01-01

----------------------------------------------------

 

How can I correct this problem? Is it a mistake in the configuration of the oai.cfg file?

 

Where can I get the different configuration options for the oai.cfg so 

that I can correct myself the errors reported in future tests?

 

Thank you very much for your kind support.

 

This is the text of my oai.cfg file:

 

*********************************************************************

# OAI Server Configuration

 

# This is the main configuration file for configuring your Greenstone oai server.

# The server is a cgi program called oaiserver (oaiserver.exe on Windows).

# Some basic commands that you can send it are:

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=Identify

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=ListSets

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=ListIdentifiers&set=xxx (1.1 only)

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=ListIdentifiers&set=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc (2.0 only)

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=ListRecords&set=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=GetRecord&identifier=xxx&metadataPrefix=oai_dc

 

#The List verbs (ListSets, ListIdentifiers, ListRecords) all return a

#sequence of items. The 'resumeafter' paramter below indicates how many

#records to return - if this number is less than the number matching the

#request, then a resumption token is returned. To use this to get the

#next set of documents, you need to issue the same request again, with

#an additional parameter: resumptionToken=xxx

#For example,

# ....cgi-bin/oaiserver?verb=ListRecords&set=demo&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&resumptionToken=gsdloai:demo,,11-

 

# For more information about the OAI-PMH protocol, see

# http://www.openarchives.org/

 

# Strings containing spaces should be enclosed in double quotes ""

 

# The OAI repository name - human readable

repositoryName "Biblioteca Digital Científica de les Illes Balears"

 

# The central administrative email address for the repository.

maintainer  "eduard.delvalle@uib.es"

 

# Which version of OAI the repository supports, 1.1 or 2.0

# (The server supports both)

oaiversion "2.0"

 

# How many records to output before needing a resumption token

# A value of -1 will return all records for a request

resumeafter  -1

 

# Other free text items describing the repository. There is no restriction

# on the number of items, or item names

# The format is like the following:

# oaiinfo "item name" "item value"

# Examples may include sponsor, purpose, size...

oaiinfo "Content" "The Scientific Digital Library of the Balearic Islands is developed by the University of Balearic Islands. It provides open access to

research and cultural documentation produced at this university and in the Balearic Islands. Content includes electronic theses and scientific articles, and

also the results of digitisation projects: images, maps, rare books and manuscripts. It uses Greenstone Digital Library Software."

 

# A list of collections that should be made available to OAI clients. By

# default, collections are not available.

# There can be more than one line: each line must start with oaicollection,

# and this is followed by one or more collection names. The collection name

# is the name of the collection's folder in the collect directory.

# Metadata mapping information. At present, Greenstone's OAI server only

# supports the Dublin Core metadata format. Metadata in other formats must

# be mapped to Dublin Core. This can be done in this file, or for a

# particular collection, in its collect.cfg file.

 

# The format is like

# oaimapping <greenstone fieldname> <oaifieldname>

 

# As Greenstone's OAI server only supports Dublin Core, the oai fieldnames

# should be like dc.Title, dc.Subject etc.

# The Greenstone field names can be unqualified (Title, Subject) or

# qualified by a namespace (dc.Title, dls.Subject). These mapping rules

# will apply to the entire repository. Collection specific rules can also

# be specified in this file using a collection name qualifier. This is

# the collection name followed by a colon (demo:Title, demo:dls.Title).

# Mappings specified in a collect.cfg file do not need the collection

# qualifier.

 

# Details about the Dublin Core metadata format can be found at

# http://dublincore.org/

# Elements include Title, Creator, Subject, Description, Publisher,

# Contributor, Date, Type, Format, Identifier, Source, Language,

# Relation, Coverage, Rights

 

# mappings for the demo collection

oaimapping demo:dls.Title dc.Title

oaimapping demo:dls.Subject dc.Subject

oaimapping demo:dls.Language dc.Language

oaimapping demo:dls.Organization dc.Publisher

 

# mappings for the llevant collection

oaimapping llevant:dls.Title dc.Title

 

# mappings for the mayurqa collection

oaimapping mayurqa:dls.Catalan_subject dc.Subject

 

# mappings for the mayurqaVolums collection

oaimapping mayurqaVolums:dls.Revista dc.Title

 

# mappings for the dadesBalearsVolums collection

oaimapping dadesBalearsVolums:dls.Revista dc.Title

 

# mappings for the memoriesUIB collection

oaimapping memoriesUIB:dls.Subject dc.Subject

 

# mappings for the territoris collection

oaimapping territoris:dls.Catalan_subject dc.Subject

 

# mappings for the territorisVolums collection

# mappings for the tesisUIB collection
