The following placeholders are used within these configuration files:

Placeholder Description Example
EPRINTS_PATH Path to EPrints installation. /opt/eprints3
ARCHIVE_ID ID of the specific EPrints repository archive. example_org
HOSTNAME The hostname of the EPrints repository archive. eprints.example.org
ADMIN_EMAIL The email address for the EPrints repository archive's administrator. eprints@example.org

HTTPS Virtualhost (EPRINTS_PATH/archives/ARCHIVE_ID/ssl/securevhost.conf)

  • Assumes inclusion of all archives' ssl/securevhost.conf's from /etc/httpd/conf.d/eprints.conf or /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/eprints.conf.
  • Includes Shibboleth configuration that is ultimately exempted from being proxied via Anubis
  • Logs names based on those used for RHEL-based Linux, changes may be required for Debian-based Linux (e.g Ubuntu).
