[VuFind-Tech] RC1 and tagging

[Belanger, A. <art...@ya...>]

Hello.

We have installed RC1 on two different systems and are having difficulty getting the tagging and favorites to work.  We are using DB authentication.  I can login successfully.  An error message then appears in the webserver error log:

Notice: Undefined variable: resourceList in /export/home/vufind/RC-1.0/vufind-1.0RC1/web/services/MyResearch/Home.php on line 64

This refers to the following line:

$interface->assign('resourceList', $resourceList);

After doing a search (title search on sports), the following message appeared in the web log:

PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: sort in /usr/local/vufind/vufind-1.0RC1/web/sys/Solr.php on line 400,

This refers to the line:

        return array('query' => $query, 'sort' => $sort);



I then click "Add to favorites"next to one of the results.  The "Lightbox" opens and the following message appears in the web log:

PHP Notice:  Trying to get property of non-object in /usr/local/vufind/vufind-1.0RC1/web/services/MyResearch/lib/User.php on line 49, referer: http://gsdl.med.yale.edu/vufind/Search/Home?lookfor=sports&type=title&submit=Find

This refers to the third join statement in :

    function hasResource($resource)
    {
        $join = new User_resource();
        $join->user_id = $this->id;
        $join->resource_id = $resource->id; /* this is line 49 */
        if ($join->find()) {
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }


I enter a couple of tags (sports medicine science) and a brief note, click save.  I am returned to a search results list, not the search I performed but a "null search", returning all the records in the instance.  A whole host of errors appear:

I click on "Your Account" and go to the correct page but no favorites are listed.  There are no additional entries in any of the database tables.  The following message is in the error log (same as message after successful logon):

[Mon Nov 24 11:30:54 2008] [error] [client 130.132.235.227] PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: resourceList in /usr/local/vufind/vufind-1.0RC1/web/services/MyResearch/Home.php on line 64, referer: http://gsdl.med.yale.edu/vufind/Search/Home?tags=sports+medicine+science&notes=Nice+combination+of+topics.

Has anyone else seen this "breaking" of the tagging functions or have any idea ow what is going on?

Thanks in advance for any help.
