[EP-tech] Re: Need Help : Importing DOI via CrossRef

[Mark Gregson]

Sounds like the variable containing the XML response is undefined. Perhaps the response from CrossRef was invalid XML or there was no response. You could try commenting out the eval { } block at line 59 of perl_lib/EPrints/Plugins/Import/DOI.pm, restarting, and see if there a more useful error is generated when you next try the import.

Cheers
Mark

Subject: [EP-tech] Need Help : Importing DOI via CrossRef

Hi there,

I tried to import items from DOI using "DOI (via CrossRef)" but
encounter a problem :

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unhandled exception in Import::DOI: Can't call method
"getDocumentElement" on an undefined value at
/opt/eprints3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Import/DOI.pm line 63, <$fh>
line 2.

Expected EPrints::List

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please help,

Hazmi.
