[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Error messages during dev import

[Brad Westbrook]

Like Mark, I was able to import cu551 only after omitting the Chron list with the event groups.  I was able to import the other two EADs without any problems.  I imported them into a localhost using the Derby backend.

James,

I get a slightly different error when trying to import cu551_cuuarc.xml, but I was able to get it to import after I removed the bioghist note that has the eventgrp elements.  Does the EAD importer not support event groups?  I’m using version 1.1.

Also, I haven’t finishing trying to import the other two files just yet, but I wonder if the problem might be due to the container/@type values?  In cu302, included in the distinct types of @type are “ca4rton” and “ca35rton”  (even if that’s not holding up the importer, I’d assume that was a find and replace error).  I’m trying to import m2000 right now, and it’s moving along slowly, but I haven’t seen an error just yet.

Mark

We actually have several other of the container problems since my original post, but we'll just keep it to two for now.  :)  I'm also including the "items" error EAD.

The EADs and errors:

cu551_cuuarc.xml
<NoMethodError: undefined method `items' for #<#Class:0x34c4cb35>:0xc39fbf4>>

cu302_cuuarc.xml
<RuntimeError: Problem creating 'Katz Case': Invalid value: box>

m2000_50_cubanc.xml

<RuntimeError: Problem creating 'Bibliography on 3 x 5 index cards - Compiled by Genie Candau': Invalid value: box>

Hi, James,

Can you send us the two EADs?

Thanks,

Brad

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,

We're having problems with importing two collections into our dev instance of AS (see below) which generate error messages for specific components.  In the first case, the collection has other components with similar markup that result in no error.

Also, as with Jared Campbell's post this week, we also have a collection that results in a "NoMethodError: undefined method 'items'" message.  Unlike Jared's case and question re file size, this occurs for a small collection.

Error: #<RuntimeError: Problem creating 'Katz Case': Invalid value: box>

This component seems to be OK:

<c03 level="file">
<did>
<container label="Box" type="box">5</container>
<container label="Folder" type="folder">3</container>
<unittitle>Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) Rules: Violations (Interviews with Athletes)</unittitle>
<unitdate>1956</unitdate>
</did>
</c03>

But this one generated the error:

<c02 level="file">
<did>
<container label="Box" type="box">5</container>
<container label="Folder" type="folder">4</container>
<unittitle>Katz Case</unittitle>
<unitdate type="inclusive">1964-1965</unitdate>
</did>
</c02>

***

This is the only instance of label="Box" in this collection, but there appears to be nothing unusual about the markup:

#<RuntimeError: Problem creating 'Bibliography on 3 x 5 index cards - Compiled by Genie Candau': Invalid value: box>

<c03 level="file">
<did>
<container label="Box" type="box">1</container>
<unittitle>Bibliography on 3 x 5 index cards - Compiled by Genie Candau</unittitle>
<unitdate>1956 - 1991</unitdate>
</did>
</c03>
