FW: indexing of "Marchantiophyta/Hepatics/Liverworts of Russian Fennoscandia"

Dear IPT specialists, Could you help with advice on system requirements for running the IPT on Linux? Please see the original email below.

I am fixing this, but cannot "Import" the data anymore. The IPT gets stuck. There seems to be some kind of timeout, as I get "Done" when it is not done. We have to restart tomcat all the time. The log shows out-of-memory errors. We have now increased tomcat memory to 1.5 GB, and AJP Connector to connectionTimeout="5000", but still cannot figure this out. This is a Linux machine that is also doing other things. Can you give me indication of what kind of hardware the IPT should normally run on Linux? Hannu

New IPT release (RC3) now available for download
by Aaron Steele 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

The latest IPT release (RC3) is now available for download and testing! http://gbif-providertoolkit.googlecode.com/files/ipt-1.0-RC3.war This release depends on the updated GeoServer IPT plugin which is bundled here: http://gbif-providertoolkit.googlecode.com/files/ipt-geoserver-1.0-RC3.zip New features include internationalization support, Darwin Core updates that reflect the latest ratified standard, and several bug fixes. Note that we are still unable to reproduce the delete bug (http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/detail?id=155) and we are actively looking for testers who can reproduce this issue (or discover new issues) before the IPT version 1 release. As always, please submit issues here: http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/entry Thanks! The GBIF IPT Team

set JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true" for launchd to start geoserver
by Burke Chih-Jen Ko 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Hello list members, For people who runs Mac OS X to host Tomcat container and wants to automatically start up with "launchd", in order to startup geoserver successfully, it is suggested that you set EnvironmentVariable as <key>EnvironmentVariables</key> <dict> <key>CATALINA_HOME</key> <string>/Library/Tomcat</string> <key>JAVA_OPTS</key> <string>-Djava.awt.headless=true</string> </dict> by adding "-Djava.awt.headless=true" to JAVA_OPTS in a launchd plist file. I try to describe what I experienced below. Please feel free to correct me as I am a newbie to jsp and Tomcat. I found this when recently I installed IPT-RC3 and the accompanying geoserver, it was strange that the geoserver couldn't successfully startup after I launched Tomcat by using Server Admin on Mac OS X Server 10.6 and 10.5, while IPT started up ok. But if I started Tomcat by bin/start.sh, geoserver would launch ok with a process called org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap on the Dock. Later I tried testing with a separate installation of Tomcat (in addition to the Apple shipped version). By using the plist described in this book page: http://books.google.com/books?id=vJttHyVF0SUC&lpg=PA32&ots=i_9xrTuSd1&dq=ma… (Tomcat: The Definitive Guide, O'Reilly, p.33) geoserver was started up ok if I "sudo launchctl load" the plist in the Terminal, but failed to start up after I reboot the OS. After some googling I understood the org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap process is relevant to the launching of geoserver while logged in. So specifying JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true" prevents the need to invoke the bootstrap process at the GUI front, which is usually not ready during the booting process. What I didn't test, but I think it'll work, is that the variable can also be specified in the catalina.sh, which is called by launch daemon. Hope this could be helpful.

Dear Ivailo Sorry for the delay in replying but I have been away. I get a timeout when I try and reach http://85.130.9.84:8080/ipt/index.html - is it running? I believe what you are seeing relates to a critical bug that is now fixed, but I would like to try and find a workaround for your issue. Please can you send all future questions to the ipt(a)lists.gbif.org to make sure that you get the best and quickest response?

Re: [IPT] Set of short presentations about IPT
by Alberto González-Talaván (GBIF) 29 Jan '10

29 Jan '10

Dear friends from the IPT list, I have received two sets of IPT presentations (Chinese by Elie Yueh-Chih Chen and French by Franck Theeten) that are now available in the GBIF Community Site for everybody's use. My thanks to Elie and Franck for that! <http://elggtest.gbif.org/pg/pages/view/3872/> http://elggtest.gbif.org/pg/pages/view/3872/ This location is an interim solution while the Resources Section of the GBIF Online Resource Centre for Training is being developed. The page is public so everybody should be able to access it. To those who volunteered to produce the presentations in other languages: if you are short in time, I would suggest that you focus on the presentations 1 (introduction) and 4 (user interface), which are the most useful ones to present the IPT to general audiences, data publishers and data users. The IPT is ready for translation of its interface now! We will contact you back soon on this regard to proceed with the translation process in a coordinated manner. This will surely be a big step for the deployment of the tool all over the world!

Please proceed with the translations as you own time allows and send them back to me when you are finished. We will make sure they have the widest spread possible. For those who are still thinking about volunteering, I would like to encourage you to do so (What about my Spanish-speaking colleagues!?). The more people involved the less we will have to face individually, and all the group will be benefited. We are trying to improve the accessibility to some of the IPT promotional and training materials. We will get back to you soon on that regard.

We tried to keep this session basic in the technical level, but informative for anyone who is evaluating the IPT as an alternative for biodiversity data publishing. I would like to share with you the presentations displayed during that season. I hope you can use them in future IPT promotional activities. There are 6 very short presentations, that could be easily merged into a single one if needed. The original presentations are in English. Does anyone volunteer to translate them into other languages and share them with the community? If you are interested drop me an email and we will coordinate the efforts!

Improvements for the IPT documentation
by Arnaud Réveillon 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Dear all, I am at last going to start working on the IPT documentation again, first to fix issues that may be present in the current version (available on the wiki) then to add some new sections. I would like to ask you, as users of the IPT, to help me find out what needs to be done to improve the documentation. First, could you let me know of any issues you have or have had with it? As it has not been modified since its first release, I am convinced there are things to be clarified, improvements to be made, errors to be fixed, etc., and I would like users to let me know about them. Second, could you also let me know of any improvements, any new sections or any new features you would like to see added to the documentation. We will review these requests and decide whether or not they should be included in future releases of the documentation. Thank you, Arnaud Réveillon-

IPT training opportunity in Ghana
by Alberto González-Talaván (GBIF) 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear friends from the IPT list, George Owusu-Afriyie from GhanaBIF (GBIF Ghana, http://www2.ug.edu.gh/ghanabif/) is seeking IPT experts to help them with a training event for 12 institutions within the country. The event will be held in English, in Ghana (probably Accra). The dates are not set and will have to be arranged between the organisers and the potential trainers. This activity will very likely include the installation of a national IPT instance for the GhanaBIF. As previously announced, the participation of the trainers in this activity (= travel + accommodation + per diem) is eligible for financial support from the GBIF distributed helpdesk grants. If you are interested in collaborating with GhanaBIF, please contact me or George directly in his email address: georgeoa AT 4u.com.gh.

Re: [IPT] IPT multiple source files

Hannu, I am afraid the current version doesnt allow to map multiple sources files to "the core". The darwin core archive format allows for this, but we havent implemented that in the IPT yet. It is a missing feature that has been reported to me before, so I have added a feature request to the code site: http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/issues/detail?id=249 anyone supporting this request please star the issue or comment on it!

I am not sure I completely understand the scenario, but I could imagine (as he is a user of the old "GBIF portal toolkit") that he is trying to upload one dataset from multiple source files. In the toolkit, those could just be glued together after upload.
