Troubleshooting
The Harvest now button does not start a harvest
If the Harvest now button is missing, disabled or shows a warning when pressed, checking the harvest setting, a run in progress and the hourly limit on attempts.
The Harvest now button starts a new harvest run in the background. If the button does not work, check the causes below in order.
The button is missing
The button appears only after the harvest has been turned on and saved. Turn on the Harvest the published issues from DergiPark switch and press Save. If the switch does not turn on, see The DergiPark harvest cannot be turned on.
A run is already in progress
If the button says Harvest running…, a run of the journal is in progress. Only one run goes at a time for a journal, and the button becomes active again when the run finishes. If someone else started a run at the same time, the warning "A harvest of this journal is already running." appears. The results arrive in the card's table by themselves.
A run that lasts longer than half a day counts as stuck and is closed as failed in the system's regular check. After that, the button works again.
Too many attempts
At most 6 harvests an hour can be started by hand from the same IP address. The limit is shared by all journals. Once the limit is passed, the warning "Too many attempts. Please wait a moment and try again." appears. Wait a while and try again.
The harvest was turned off or the address removed
If the warning "Turn on the DergiPark harvest first." appears when you press the button, the harvest has been turned off in the meantime. The warning "Enter the journal's DergiPark address first." says that the journal's address on DergiPark (Türkiye's national journal platform) has been removed. Refresh the page and check the settings.
