Dataverse v4.1 is a minor release that contains two notable features: My Data and a manage groups UI. Bug fixes include: an updated Two Ravens installer, user guide updates, several API fixes, and a patch to the Grizzly subsystem that was preventing us from fronting Glassfish by Apache.

For more information about changes see the project milestone notes and individual issues.

Installation:

Please see our Installation Guide

Upgrades:

If upgrading from v3.6.2 or earlier, please contact us at [email protected] since this requires considerable planning and effort.

If upgrading from v4.x, you will need to follow the upgrade instructions for each intermediate version.
Please note that the My Data feature requires a new Solr schema and a complete reindex. Depending on how much data you have, this could take a while.

For upgrading from the previous version, v4.0.1 to v4.1 do the folllowing:

  1. undeploy the current application
    /glassfish4/bin/asadmin list-applications
    /glassfish4/bin/asamin undeploy dataverse-4.0.1
  2. update the solr schema.xml file
    stop solr
    remove current schema.xml
    replace with the 4.1 schema.xml file provided
    start solr
  3. deploy the new war file
    /glassfish4/bin/asadmin deploy dataverse-4.1.war
  4. run the upgrade psql script provided: upgrade_v4.0.1_to_v4.1.sql
  5. restart glassfish
    Note: if you plan on fronting Glassfish with Apache, apply the Grizzly patch
  6. Reindex Solr
    This is a destructive reindex. First back up and move the current index files.

Then from the web server console run:
curl -X GET "http://localhost:8080/api/admin/index"

Where 8080 is the port where Glassfish is running.
