[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Error messages during dev import

[James D. LAKE]

Hi -

Just checking again to see if anyone has experienced (and has had solutions
for) error messages when importing EAD instances into AS.  For us, it's:

-  "NoMethodError: undefined method 'items'"

-  mystery container errors (e.g "box" when the markup appears to be
correct and other "box" components do not generate that error).

Thanks,

Jim Lake
UC Berkeley Library
