Re: [EP-tech] EPrints DataCite Plugin

Hi Michael,

There are a number of issues that have been fixed with this plugin
based on looking at:

https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Feprintsug%2FDataCiteDoi%2Fissues%3Fq%3Dis%253Aissue%2Bis%253Aclose&data=01%7C01%7C%7C0a0f44cbc84c4fd2ddbf08d6d7a9b9a7%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&sdata=8qQnXh21wd2h7QeL1uO4DeuMBR3NIEbVVlaeVldqIzo%3D&reserved=0

Which version of the DataCiteDoi plugin are you using and what
operating system (e.g. RHEL 7, Ubuntu 16.04, etc.) is your EPrints
repository running on.

This seems likely a likely issue:

However, I assume you have not recently changed your EPrints repository
OS, so I am not sure how minting DOIs would have stopped working
without you deliberately upgrading the OS.

Also can you check your indexer log (EPRINTS_PATH/var/indexer.log) for
error message straight after trying to mint/coin a DOI.  Make sure any
failed tasks for minting a DOI for the same EPrint have been deleted
otherwise it is likely the task will not be created.
