migrate dataset from one IPT to another
by Rui Figueira 26 Sep '18

26 Sep '18

Dear IPT list, We want to migrate several datasets from http://maerua.iict.pt/ipt to http://ipt.gbif.pt. The datasets are already registered with GBIF, and there will be no change of the publishing organisation. We are thinking in transferring the resources to the new host IPT by importing the DwC-A from the old IPT. The questions is how to publish the datasets in the new hosting IPT, without creating a duplication in the GBIF registration? I tried to find a solution for this in https://github.com/gbif/ipt/wiki/FAQ.wiki, but none of the answers seems to apply.

Greetings, Is there a way to have more control over the time that an auto-publish occurs? I'd like to be able to schedule the auto-publish to occur outside of business hours.

update of Darwin Core Resource Relationship extension
by Rui Figueira 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hi IPT list members, Could anyone help me to understand what are the implications of doing an update of the Darwin Core Resource Relationship extension, that our IPT installation is asking to update? I am particularly concerned with the dataset http://ipt.gbif.pt/ipt/resource?r=edp_tua_arthropoda_eia, that is using this extension. The table resourcerelationship.txt in the dataset uses the term scientificName to identify the name of the tree where larva of butterflies feed on. This is reflected in the occurrence data at gbif.org, for example, in this record: https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1585354292. I noticed that the update of the extension dropped the term scientificName. So, could anyone guide me on the changes that I need to do in the dataset, in order to be able to update the extension and have the same or equivalent information about the relationship in the record at https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1585354292?

Windows IPT Installation and SSL Configuration
by Bornhorst, Keith 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hello everyone, I have an IPT installation on a Windows box that is working fine, but I'd like to enable SSL and I'm having trouble figuring out the necessary configuration tweaks. Is there anyone out there that is also running IPT on Windows with a configuration similar to mine (Windows Server 2012, Apache Tomcat 8.5, IIS 8.5, BonCode Apache Tomcat AJP 1.3 Connector) that can help walk me through the necessary Tomcat/BonCode/IIS changes?

IPT: bringing you up to date
by Kyle Braak 08 Dec '17

08 Dec '17

Hi IPT users, This being my last day as IPT product manager (and last day at the GBIF Secretariat), I just wanted to take this opportunity to say goodbye and share some important points to bring you more up to date about the IPT: * A new and even more secure version (2.3.5) of the IPT is available for download[1]. Updating to this version will provide added protection against potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. As usual, update instructions can be found in the IPT Release Notes[2]. * A growing number of trusted IPT data hosting centres[3] are popping up around the world. These meet a strict set of criteria and provide reliable and free data hosting support. If you struggle to maintain your IPT installation, using a data hosting centre could save you significant time and money. * In July, a fantastic demo video showing how to use the IPT was added to the IPT library[4]. This video is featured as part of the short and concise IPT how-to publish guide[5], designed to get new publishers up to speed as fast as possible. * The IPT has been translated into Persian by a single devoted and hard-working volunteer. This will make the IPT available in eight languages, but it still needs more reviewing before it can be released[6]. If you are fluent in Persian, please consider joining the IPT translator team. It's easy to join following these instructions[7]. * For those interested in tracking the IPT's growth story, you can check out the newly added statistics page in IPT wiki[8]. I move on now in my career in search of new and exciting products to help develop. It has been an honor to serve the IPT community and truly amazing for me to watch IPT usage explode these last years. If you have any additional questions regarding the state of the IPT please don't hesitate to write to the GBIF Helpdesk[9]. Rest assured, you the IPT community remains well supported by the extremely talented and dedicated GBIF Secretariat. Wishing you all happy data publishing!

deployment question
by Julien Cigar 20 Jun '17

20 Jun '17

Hello, I've setup some high availability for our hosted IPTs here. Basically I have two machines on which two VM-like (FreeBSD jails) have been created in which all hosted IPT are installed (along with Tomcat 8, OpenJDK 8). The IPT data directory is shared (NFS) through the two instances, and in front of those instances HAProxy is configured to dispatch the requests in an active/passive mode which means that only one Tomcat is accessed at time. If the primary Tomcat dies then the secondary take over. It seems to work well, but I'd like some feedback from IPT devs regarding potential problems that I might have missed (if any). I'm especially thinking about caching/locking issues and/or possible corruption of the IPT data directory (which IMHO should not occur if one instance if accessed at a time, but want to be sure). Thanks!
