[Dspace-general] Upgrade to 1.5 probs

[Laurence Munro]

I want to add that we started to investigate a vanilla install of 1.5

After creating new communities, collections and adding a few reconds,  
we realized that we experience internal errors as mentioned before  
when using the Titles Search, Issue date and items withdrawn.  When I  
deleted the records (thus cleaning the DB of actual records), I don't  
receive internal errors.
