Re: [EP-tech] Eprints not working after migration to a new server

Hi Norbert,

> ... pronom_internal.pl is from preservation toolkit at eprints bazaar.
I fear your error(s) are caused by a somehow outdated bazaar plugin:

Here are my modifications:

Obviously the new perl is more strict. BTW: Do you have all necessary modules updated?

Without _any_ guarantee I recommend to just install the _modified_ plugin:
1. Move all remaining files listed in origin:EPrintsRoot/lib/epm/preservation_toolkit/preservation_toolkit.epmi to new server using /usr/share/eprints3/lib/ as prefix for all file paths.
2. Put the modified pronom_internal.pl into EPrintsRoot/archives/repoID/cfg/cfg.d/, but don't forget the original pronom.pl in the same directory.
3. restart apache

yes, but after action item 1 this will be healed!? Or are there still some unmoved files on the origin server?
