Naive import of Mailbag into empty Fedora 6 repo appears to succeed, does nothing?

[dmoles]

I have a Mailbag created with mailbagit that I'm trying to import into a new, empty, Fedora 6 repository. The import appears to succeed, but nothing seems to be added to the repo, and the only output in the Fedora logs is for a couple of GET and HEAD requests.

I suspect I'm missing something basic (& quite possibly conceptual), but what?

Import command:

$ java -jar fcrepo-import-export/fcrepo-import-export-1.1.0.jar \

Hi @dmoles, MailbagIt is relatively new and there has not been a use case for adding that profile support to Fedora yet, so I'm guessing some work is needed. I'm going to ping @mikejritter as I think he did the initial work on BagIt support and can fact check me.

[dmoles]

Thanks, @whikloj. I did have to tweak the bag-info.txt to add Source-Organization to get it to load at all.

Hi @dmoles, looking at the beyondtherepository profile, the Source-Organization field is required so that makes sense (also I thought we had a place online to view the profiles but admittedly I haven't thought about this in ~2 years). I also thought we had it log if anything in the profile failed to validate against the bag being imported. I see the output for recommended fields so I wonder if the error is being swallowed somewhere.

Hey @dmoles, was this answered to your satisfaction or is there more here you need?

[dmoles]

Hi @whikloj, it doesn't really explain why the process appears to succeed but nothing is loaded, but I've moved on from this project (and ended up giving up on Fedora for it anyway), so 🤷.
