Jump to: navigation, search

As of 1st May 2026, Ubuntu 26.04 is under testing to determine if EPrints can be successfully installed and if so if there are any issues with doing this, which require a different approach from the general approach for installing EPrints on Debian/Ubuntu Linux.

Current Issues

Segfault when creating EPrints database 
If you use bin/epadmin create pub to create a new archive, once you approve the creation of the archive's database rather than prompting you for an appropriate username and password for a superuser that can create new database you get a segfault error like below. A resolution to this issue is currently being investigated.
Segmentation fault         (core dumped) bin/epadmin create pub
