[SPT/CWIS] OAI

[Sonya Norris]

Thanks! Now I get a positive test by entering a metadata prefix, but
when I go to the OAI Harvesting URL provided in CWIS, I still get an
error and no results: http://imel.mel.org/mer/SPT--OAI.php
 
Any ideas?
Sonya

    You'll need to enter either "oai_dc" or
    "nsdl_dc" in the "metadataPrefix" box on the
    OAI Repository Explorer before using the
    "List Identifiers" or "List Records" commands.

    (The OAI Repository Explorer is the page that
    you're taken to via the "Test OAI" link.)

    You may also want to check the mapping of your
    metadata to the oai_dc and nsdl_dc fields via
    the "OAI Configuration" page.


    No changes to SPT--Local.php are needed to
    use OAI, though that is where you would set up
    any special conditions to determine which
    records are available for harvest.
