The list below includes enhancements and bug fixes. The ID for each item represents its tracking number in the Geoportal Server software development system.

Table of Contents

Platform support, Installation and Configuration

  • 61503 The main change with Geoportal Sever 1.0 is upgrading the geoportal web application to use the JavaServer Faces (JSF) 2.0 framework. This does not change the Geoportal Server functionality, but does offer the following benefits:
    • Geoportal compatible with newer framework technologies, such as Java 7
    • More unified behavior across different application servers. For example, in the past separate code was maintained for GlassFish and Tomcat. With JSF 2.0, this is not necessary.

Discovery

  • 58848 Flex widget supports pagination of search results
  • 61287 (FIXED) Federated search and harvesting fails on Geonetwork APISO 2.0.2 CSW endpoints

Known Issues

System Environment

  • Apache Tomcat 6.0.13 and earlier not supported. If used, then when users access certain pages (Register Network Resource, the Search page), they'll be redirected to the Home Page. Logfile will show an error that the EL expression cannot be parsed. This is an issue with Apache Tomcat and not Geoportal code. Workaround is to use later version of Tomcat; recommended is version 6.0.24 and higher (but not Tomcat 7.x).

User Management

  • 57363 Geoportal does not support registering new users through Register page or changing a password through the My Profile page if configured with Active Directory.

Discovery

  • When the <metadataaccesspolicy></metadataaccesspolicy> type is set to restricted or public-protected in the gpt.xml, authorized users may get an HTTP 401 error when accessing the resource's Details and Metadata pages. To fix, apply the Restricted Metadata HTTP 401 Patch.
  • 42319 When the thumbnail in metadata is not found, an empty image displays in the search result/details page.
  • Thumbnails with partially encoded URL reference (e.g., http://www.testserver.com/images/Note%20the%20encoding%20here/but no encoding here.JPG), the h:graphicImage java server faces component renders the link with plus signs in the spaces. Workaround is to use fully encoded URLs in thumbnail links.
  • 47306 Searching ArcGIS.com through federated search allows users to choose Live Data and extent for a search criteria, but these are not supported by ArcGIS.com.
  • 56343 kml and kmz file having html code in CDATA section as a description does not get rendered properly and show html string.
  • 59799 When a document title is long with no spaces, HTML rendering does not wrap the title in search results.
  • 60175 When OntologyService.war is deployed in weblogic without unzipping the .war file, the Ontology service does not return related terms.
  • 60956 If a bounding box is a point, foot print on a search map for the metadata is not correct and shows a random bounding box.

Publishing

  • 45409 Geoportal calendar does not work properly if a server is set with different locale in JVM such as Buddhist calendar.
  • 60957 When metadata status gets updated with the checkbox "Apply action to the entire result set", the status change gets updated in search and lucene index files when the next synchronization (to sync between lucene index and database) process run and finish.

Synchronization

  • 60958 For CSW protocol, incremental Synchronization will not reharvest metadata that have been deleted from admin interface.
  • 60959 If a repository doesn't support last updated date info, Incremental sync will act like full sync.
