How can i completly disable the print function in ResCarta-Web?

The jsp  file that contains the print function button is called RcWebImageViewerToolbar.jsp

The line of jsp code that controls the sort is listed below.

You can simply rem out the lines by cutting the --> from the print line and replacing it below the three lines of code like...

<!-- Print 

<td>

    <a class="rc-img-vwr-toolbar-icon rc-print-icon" href="javascript:void(0);" title="${rc_web_fn:msg('rcWebImageViewer.toolbar.printButton.tooltip')}" onclick="rcPrint();"/>

</td>

 -->

Save the edited file and restart your ResCarta-Web. You may want to clear your tomcat work directory prior to restarting do insure your changes are recompiled.  ( N.B. The Tomcat Server work directory NOT the ResCarta-Web/work directory)

I used the OAI perl script and the resulting xml files do not contain subject information.   I know the data is in my collection mangager view.  What's up with that?

There is a known bug in version 2.0 of the RcOai.zip 

If you use lower case text for the authority, subjects will not be extracted properly.  Please download the 

2.2 version of the ResCarta OAI kit and replace only your makeOAI.pl file.  It is case independent now.

When I attempt to install the ResCarta Toolkit from the Windows .EXE file, I get a BOING!# sound and then nothing?

We have had this reported on certain newer Windows XP systems with more than 2 gigabytes of ram.  The work around is to install from the .JAR file.  Just download the ResCarta toolkit jar installer and double click like you would the exe file.

We have yet to determine the culprit.   We can have the same version, service pack, and updates on two similar but not exact hardware systems and see the BOING!# on one and not the other.  Hopefully we can resolve this shortly.

NOTE: It has been determined  that the Java virtual machine is taking more memory that it can use. Machines witn 2 gigabytes of ram on Windows XP will take 1638 megabytes of ram for the JVM.  Any machine running Windows XP with more than 2 gigabytes of ram will exceed the XP JVM limit of 1650 megabytes.   We have corrected this problem in version 2.2.1.

How do I work on larger collections without running our of memory ?

The start batch files and sh files for RcTools have a setting for your Java maximum memory.  You can make this larger for your collections by adjusting the -Xmx setting.  The default is -Xmx512m for 512 megabytes of memory.  If your tool reports an out of memory error you can increase this setting to available memory in the machine less start up.  So a machine with 2 gigabytes of ram could easily  be set to -Xmx1024m for this setting.

You can find the batch files under your installation directory.  For Windows the default location is C:\Program Files\RcTools\bin\   and on   Mac OSx  installs the default is the  /Applications/RcTools/bin directory.
