Hi there!
06:53
Virgile
I was wondering, is there a way to know when will be the next community call apart from looking at https://dataverse.org/community-calls ?

@Virgile hello! community calls occur every two weeks, American holidays excepted.
11:37
Virgile
alright! Thnx Don
11:38
donsizemore
@Virgile (not so much because a given holiday is American, but because IQSS, the host organization, will be closed)

Virgile
Hehe ok ^^

Aren't you supposed to sleep right now?

and @donsizemore's remark about holidays had me wondering what happens when the (Boston time) late one is a holiday, but the (Boston) lunchtime one isn't

It's a good point. That page should probably say "every other week" on it.

hi all ... me again with another question today ... sorry for all of the questions but we are finally getting into all the things ... trying to test dataset harvesting from some dataverses, and not having any luck ... is there a way to determine if a dataverse site has harvesting enabled for their site? for most sites that I try, including harvard, I'm getting an error that a response is not being received from the server (when I try to set u
17:28
nightowl313
and, do most sites create a separate dataverse under the root dataverse specifically for harvested datasets?
17:36

donsizemore
@nightowl313 We at Odum offer our datasets for harvesting, though I'd have to look up the harvesting set names
17:37
donsizemore
@nightowl313 we used to have our harvesting client enabled (it kept getting stuck, and the last time we just never un-stuck it)
17:37
donsizemore
@nightowl313 I like putting all the harvested dataset metadata into a sub-dataverse, but in our case everything just spills down our homepage
17:45
nightowl313
thanks, @donsizemore! oh so I see sites can make specific "sets" available for harvesting by specifying query parameters. I get the error "invalid URL " when connecting, so I assume I need to specify the specific set names ... is there a way to find what those URLs are for a remote site?
17:45
pameyer
I _think_ there's an API for listing harvesting sets; but I haven't looked at it in years
17:46
nightowl313
oh, okay, didn't think of that ... will look for that ... thanks!
17:48
pdurbin
nightowl313: yes, the spreadsheet for the map of installations has a column for harvesting sets
17:48
pdurbin
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bfsw7gnHlHerLXuk7YprUT68liHfcaMxs1rFciA-mEo/edit#gid=0 via https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-installations
17:49
nightowl313
okay, yea, was just looking at that ... so is it just the URL and then /<harvesting_sets>?
17:49
pdurbin
well, it'll have "/oai" in it
17:49
pdurbin
I don't know OAI-PMH so well.
17:51
nightowl313
wondering how common harvesting really is between dataverses? maybe not so much?
17:52
pdurbin
This seems to work: https://dataverse.unc.edu/oai?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&set=odum_all
17:52
pdurbin
but
17:53
pameyer
https://demo.dataverse.org/oai?verb=ListSets
17:53
pdurbin
nightowl313: the Dataverse UI should guide you through that.
17:53
pameyer
sometimes notes are actually useful
17:53
pdurbin
:)
17:54
pdurbin
donsizemore: I popped in to ask you about rserve vs rapache in ansible
17:54
pdurbin
nightowl313: it would be cool to see a graph of the installations that harvest from each other
17:56
nightowl313
awesome...thanks you all! This is very helpful! sorry @donsizemore to take over the chat ... i'm intereseted in that question, too!
17:56
pameyer
slightly related, slightly tangential question - any thoughts on retry intervals for API integrations?
17:56
pameyer
but punting that until rserver/rapache/ansible works :)
17:56
pdurbin
yes, retry as often as you need to :)
17:57
pameyer
there's a fine line between that and a DOS sometimes...
17:57
pdurbin
pameyer: I'm just in the rserve docs. No big deal.
18:09
nightowl313
note .. per my previous question .. it worked! Thanks all!
18:11
pdurbin
🎉
18:15
donsizemore
@nightowl313 I think you only need rApache for TwoRavens (and we've disabled that)
18:16
pdurbin
donsizemore: sorry, that was me asking about rApache. Good answer. That's what I was hoping. :)
18:17
nightowl313
ohhh good to know! I had been wondering about that! thanks!
18:26
nightowl313
btw ... once I got the right URL for the dataverse (ie: https:<siteFQDN>/oai .. the next screen listed the available sets! Good to have the api, though, to get that info first without having to create a client
18:30
pameyer
great
18:31
pameyer
btw - the oai-pmh spec might be worth a look too, if you get into those apis
18:32
nightowl313
yes! our dev team will need that for pulling info into our "landing page" for all of our repositories ... thanks so much!
18:35
pameyer
you're welcome!

@pdurbin @nightowl31 sorry for username clash -- i'm in the datacenter this afternoon and double-tasking so's i can celebrate with hot chocolate
18:37
pdurbin
yum
18:38
nightowl313
yay to hot chocolate!
18:39
donsizemore
they keep it a toasty 65F in here
18:39
nightowl313
i was wondering about that question, too ... wasn't sure if I should install rapache on rserve server
18:39
donsizemore
you don't need it, and it TANKS performance
18:40
nightowl313
yay .. one less thing to have to figure out how to do! lol
18:41
donsizemore
take heart that once you get things good-and-configured, there's only occasional patching and upgrades to do
18:41
pameyer
@donsizemore - hope you've got your earmuffs too
18:42
nightowl313
=D
18:42
donsizemore
i'd rather have that DIMM i'e needed for a long time. no state budget, no state purchases
18:46
donsizemore
@pameyer do you need rApache? I have RPMs
18:47
pameyer
@donsizemore: nope, I'vve managed to dodge rApache - but thank you
18:49
pdurbin
I was asking because it's still listed under optional components. But I agree that it's only needed for TwoRavens.
18:49
pameyer
piles of old parts become much more useful when no-budget-for-parts happens....

@pameyer it is for this reason no one can see the disaster that is my office

huh - today I learned that you can have catch things in a finalizePublication lock with the FAKE DOI provider
19:03
pdurbin
pameyer: what version are you on?
19:04
pameyer
5.0 develop-fa33c7a
19:04
pameyer
current-ish, but not current
19:04
pameyer
looks to be an intermittent error
19:04
pdurbin
After it locks, can you still publish other datasets?
19:05
pameyer
yup
19:06
pdurbin
phew
19:07
pdurbin
I'm asking because we've had a lil' trouble lately: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/7303
19:09
pameyer
weird - that does look different than what I'm seeing
19:11
pameyer
there's a bunch of noise in my server.log , but one thing that jumped out is that there was a "Dataset cannot be edited due to In Review dataset lock" in there
19:12
pameyer
but nothing should be going into review - this is all API stuff that isn't touching review/return-to-author
19:15
pdurbin
weird
19:16
pameyer
yeah
19:16
pameyer
my usual assumption is that the weirdness is me abusing a dev environment while I typo things
19:18
pameyer
I need to reset it anyhow - I'll keep 7303 in mind if I see more oddness, or more informative logs
19:19
pdurbin
sounds good
