Why do my CONTENTdm OAI harvests keep failing?

Symptom
  • OAI feed from CONTENTdm is timing out and/or failing in ILS or during harvest
Applies to
  • CONTENTdm
Resolution

OAI-PMH is PHP-based and can take a while to process requests. If your harvests continually fail, please reach out to OCLC Support and provide the following:

  1. CONTENTdm Server ID
  2. Collection name/alias where the harvest fails
  3. A debug log if one is available
