Description

When using the export action, two bugs are noticeable:

1. Documents with associated data tables have files with the data table names included, but no data contained within:

http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/knb/metacat?action=export&qformat=nceas&docid=nceas.912.8

2. The resulting files are named after the docid and not based on our sensible naming logic (e.g. mbauer.5 instead of nceas.912.8-mbauer.5.2-Benicia_CABE-107-1.txt). Check with Jim / Rick as to their preference. Probably in the context of the package, the metadata docid is superfluous, and the docid-filename form is correct (mbauer.5.2-Benicia_CABE-107.1.txt).

Add an explicit test for this action, by uploading a new document with associated files, then downloading the resulting zip file and SHA1 summing each of the returned results. This'll insure that the action works across EML changes.

Mike,

This Metacat export bug is 1) a regression from prior behavior, and 2) sorely needs fixing for the NCEAS collaborative working groups. I'm retargeting this as 'critical' to up its priority. If you can fit this in for the 1.9.0 release that would be ideal, although I fully understand if that is not possible due to testing constraints, which is why I left it pointing at 1.9.1.

  • Priority changed from Normal to Urgent
  • Target version changed from Unspecified to 2.1.0

Well, instead of a zip file, I get the XML error message but as if it were a .zip file download:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<error>
No guid registered for docid nceas.912.912
</error>

So this is even worse now in v2.0.x
