Thumbnails do not generate in Hyrax prototype #199

Closed eporter23 closed 1 year ago

eporter23 commented 1 year ago

We should check to see if the required software (ImageMagick, LibreOffice?) are installed in our prototype infrastructure in order to generate thumbnails.

File characterization is happening so FITS seems to be working.

This may be a bug in Hyrax 4. If so, it is a low priority to resolve.

bwatson78 commented 1 year ago

Hyrax utilizes Listeners, which is their replacement for call backs. The Listener for Derivative creation is tied to Characterization. Once successfully characterized, a file should go through derivative creation, but it appears that that's not happening. I have been able to GenerateDerivatives from the CLI, so the actual processing does work.

It is possible for me to add this Job call to the end of the Bulkrax file processing. Please let me know if you'd like me to move forward with this.

Sure, if you have time!

I've tested regenerating thumbnails for all the manually created works in sandox3, all working as expected. I will hold off to test this with Bulkrax as part of that work.

Brad's notes: Works create, FileSets create, but other jobs do not occur and report no obvious errors.
