Topic: template creation error

Hi all, I got the following error message with Dataverse 6.3 vanilla container after clicking the "create dataset template" button :
template-creation-error_ 2025-01-09.png
Is this due to some configuration/setting issue I haven't noticed?

Hmm, you have the right version of Payara from 6.3: 6.2024.6

I'm looking at https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.3/installation/prerequisites.html#payara

How are you managing to run Dataverse 6.3 in a container? Did you check out the tag and build the base image and then the application image?

(We don't have tagged versions, currently.)

Whenever a new version is released (i.e., a new git tag is created), I checked out it as a new local branch and built a Dataverse to avoid issues about the checkout date, etc.

Ok, and I see the base image for the latest, 6.5, is still Payara 6.2024.6, the same: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.5/installation/prerequisites.html#payara

However, I wonder if you should rebuild the base image, just in case: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.5/container/base-image.html#build-instructions

You could also try a non-Docker installation, of course, to see if the error goes away.

Don told me he had not encounter any issue concerning the dataset template for UNC's production setup.

That's good.

While I'd like to test version 6.5, I'm running a demo project where Jupyter notebook is running on the network of Dataverse 6.3 scheduled tomorrow; so once I finish the demo, I am going to try version 6.5.

As I had requested long time ago, is there any plan to add a version segment to the current image tags, "unstable" or "alpha" such as "unstable_6.5"? Sometimes I'd like to keep two different versions of Dataverse for their testing and comparison.

Yes. This is the issue to track: Tags for application container images #10618

If you can help with this, please do!
