import.pl generates an error using arg -maxdocs along with args -OIDtype and -OIDmetadata

[tonyh]

While executing import.pl using arg maxdocs in conjunction with OIDtype and OIDmetadata, error: no dc.Identifier metadata found, generating hash id error is generated.

Workable Arg combinations:

• OIDtype and OIDmetadata work fine without maxdocs
• maxdocs works fine without OIDtype and OIDmetadata

Command line with args maxdoc, OIDtype, OIDmetadata:

perl -S import.pl -maxdocs 2 -removeold -OIDtype assigned -OIDmetadata dc.Identifier -verbosity 3 BL

Output with errors:

At this point, buildcol.pl fails as there is no data:

However, this works fine if the arg maxdocs is not used:

Command line with args OIDtype, OIDmetadata:

perl -S import.pl -removeold -OIDtype assigned -OIDmetadata dc.Identifier -verbosity 3 BL
