Missing Metadata

nickcolorado

We recently upgraded from TS 5.5 and MT 3.0 to TS 6.01 and MT 4.0. I am noticing some files in the new system have extended attributes missing. For example, I have a field named 'service' which maps to a service vocabulary. The users use MetaTagger to tag the files with differnt words in the service vocabulary. If I look at the extended attributes on the file, I see this:
...
TeamSite/Metadata/service: ,,,
TeamSite/Metadata/service_codes: products::1,products::3,products::9,products::2
...

The TeamSite.Metadata/service extended attribute does not have the terms associated with the service_codes listed in the service_codess extended attribute.

Has anyone seen this behavior before and what is the resolution?

Make sure you have a valid post-processor group in place (and one that meets your needs). Without one, you are only going to get UID numbers from a vocabulary. Adding iwmtresolveuids to the post-processor will allow you to grab values from the source vocabulary -- including labels, alts, and parents. (i.e. "iwmtresolveuids -grab alt").

I believe that iwmtresolveuids with no arguments returns the label by default.

Hope this is what you were looking for. More in Chapter 2 of the Advanced Users Guide.

Good luck,
