October 2009 - RAS-run

updating problem?
by Christian Zimmermann 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

I had three complaints this morning about material not showing up in RAS. All solved with updareq, all from templates created between Oct 24 and 26. So they should have been in RAS. Is automatic updating turned off? Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL!

To summarize, processing of CitEc aborted. I added two encoding statements. In /home/aras/acis/lib/ACIS/Citations/Input.pm $prev_ostring = my $ost = $_->{ostring}; #tok 2009-10-23 $ost=Encode::encode('utf8',$ost); #tok 2009-10-23 my $md5 = Digest::MD5::md5_base64( $ost ); my $clid = "$srcdocsid-$md5"; delete $index->{$clid}; In /home/aras/acis/lib/RePEc/Index/Collection/CitationsAMF.pm my $ctx = Digest::MD5->new; $ctx -> add( "$id\n" ); foreach ( @$self ) { if ( not ref( $_ ) ) { next; } my $s = " "; $s .= $_->{ostring}; if ( $_->{trgdocid} ) { $s .= '@'; $s .= $_->{trgdocid}; } $s .= "\n"; #tok 2009-10-23 $s=Encode::encode('utf8', $s); #tok 2009-10-23 $ctx -> add( $s ); } return $ctx->b64digest; This is not innocent code, I think.
