15:38	pdurbin	pameyer: mornin'. not sure if you saw my reply in here yesterday
15:40	pameyer	pdurbin: I did - but a while after you sent it :(
15:40	pameyer	feeling better?
15:40	pdurbin	yeah. definitely better
15:46	pdurbin	pameyer: hey for https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2880 is there a specific dataset on your side you can recommend testing with to reproduce the problem?
15:47		axfelix joined #dataverse
15:48	pameyer	for https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2880, I was seeing it with https://data.sbgrid.org/dataset/133 - but I don't think it was specific to that
15:50	pdurbin	sure. generic problem. but it helps to have specific files that will tickle a bug
15:51	pdurbin	pameyer: also, can you please edit the description to indicate which version you're on? I think it's 4.2 but I'm not sure
15:51	pameyer	the less effort to find the problem the better
15:51	pameyer	and I was just typing that in the other window
15:52	pdurbin	the reason it may matter is that in 4.2.3 we are upgrading from primefaces 4 to 5
15:54	pameyer	so it might already be fixed
15:56	pdurbin	pameyer: we're close to shipping 4.2.3 if you want to re-test after we do
15:57	pameyer	sounds good
15:58	pameyer	I'm also doing firewall rules for our setup (hopefully today), so you'll be able to try and reproduce on the same system if you'd like
15:58	pdurbin	ah. ok. great
15:59	pdurbin	hopefully I'll be able to reproduce it on my laptop

19:28	pdurbin	pameyer: so I was able to reproduce https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2880 on the first try. I left a comment and uploaded a screenshot.
19:30	pameyer	pdurbin: yup - that looks like what I was seeing
19:30	pdurbin	this bug is news to us. thanks
19:31	pdurbin	the question is...
19:31	pdurbin	Is the GUI how you expect your users to upload files?
19:32	pdurbin	or do you want them to use rsync or globus or whatever?
19:32	pameyer	that's an excellent question
19:33	pdurbin	something to think about. this was about 1.5 GB worth of files but our target is much higher than that
19:33	pameyer	yup
19:33	pdurbin	maybe "it depends"
19:33	pdurbin	on how much data you have
19:33	pameyer	another question is - does it make sense to try to incorporate other data transfer types into the GUI?
19:34	pdurbin	hmm, well, there's that Dropbox option I've never tried...
19:34	pameyer	aka - if one set of users wants globus, another wants to upload from s3, and another wants something else entirely; what's a way to handle that?
19:34	pameyer	or dropbox - I haven't tried that either
19:36	pdurbin	"Files can also be uploaded directly from Dropbox."
19:37	pameyer	suggesting that there's already some flexibility in the upload mechanism
19:42	pdurbin	exposed in the GUI even
19:42	pdurbin	I don't see Dropbox as an option on my laptop but I haven't played with this feature. I assume it needs to be enabled or something.
19:43	pdurbin	pameyer: do you see Dropbox as an option in your installation?
19:47	pameyer	not under the "new dataset" page
19:48	pdurbin	ok. same as what I'm seeing
19:49	pameyer	I don't remember it as an install option; but it's possible I missed it
19:55	pdurbin	it seems to be documented here: http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.2.3/installation/installation-main.html#dropbox-configuration
19:55	pdurbin	hmm, this seems related: APIs for File Services (other than Dropbox) · Issue #663 · IQSS/dataverse - https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/663
19:57		axfelix joined #dataverse
20:05	pameyer	"dropbox key" seems ambigous. probably because I haven't looked at their api though
20:06	pameyer	but I'd be able to figure out where to enter it :)
