Hi to everyone on this list,
I have a problem with Local File System Harvesting. My environment is Win 7 x64 with GN 2.10.3 installed into C:\Program Files (x86)\geonetwork\
As far as I can overlook it everything seems to work fine. I can insert metadata with copy/paste, add the sample metadata, view it, edit it and so on. The only thing strange I noticed is that when I want to add new metadata by hand the frame that open where I'd have to choose a template (and select a group) there is no template to choose. But this could be normal, I don't know.
Anyway, I wanted to setup Local File System Harvesting which just needs a name ("local") and a directory ("/data/metadata"). I copied an xml file into that directory which I can import using the insert metadata with copy/paste wizard. However, I tested it and it does not matter what I put into both fields, the error message is the same whatever I put into the fields.
The error message from GN is:
"/Unable to add a new entry//
//Error : error//
//Message : //
//Class : NullPointerException/"
That does not say much, but the jetty log sadly isn't more informative:
"/INFO [jeeves.request] - HTML Request (from 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1) : /geonetwork/srv/eng/xml.harvesting.add//
//INFO [jeeves.service] - Dispatching : xml.harvesting.add//
//ERROR [jeeves.service] - Exception when executing service//
//ERROR [jeeves.service] - (C) Exc : java.lang.NullPointerException/"
I searched the web and could only find one mailing list entry about this which was fixed by copying xsl/conversion into the data folder. This obviously did not fix my problem.
I look forward to any hints and thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Christian
Hi again,
totally unrelated to my issue I stumbled across a modified version of GN (ftp://ftp.ifremer.fr/ifremer/sismer/donnees/SeaDataNet_Software/CSW/) and deployed that war using Tomcat. Using that version the Local File System Harvesting worked just fine.
So I thought my problem might be solved if I deploy the war instead of installing from the *.exe. So I deployed GN 2.10.3 as a war in tomcat and the Local File System Harvesting still does not work. Then I noticed that the modified GN version uses the 2.11.0 Snapshot version. I wanted to try that but wasn't able to find a war of that. So I deployed GN 2.10.0 as a war in tomcat. Local File System Harvesting still does not work but the error message is at least a little bit more informative:
<error id="error">

However, even with this I just cannot figure out what could possibly be wrong.
I'd still be glad for any advice
