New ASTM Compass stanza and access URLs
Applies to
- EZproxy all versions
Answer
ASTM Compass recently moved to a new platform, which changed the URL from https://compass.astm.org to https://secure.astm.org. You should take the following steps:
If you are self-hosted, update your stanza in config.txt to mirror this; it will allow proxying of both the old and new URLs.
OCLC hosted servers have been updated to the new stanza.
All EZproxy users need to replace existing starting point URLs (SPU) and links. They should look as follows:
https://your.ezproxy.server.address/login?url=https://secure.astm.org/login?redirectUrl=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21wYXNzLmFzdG0ub3Jn&newApproach=true
If patrons report problems accessing the new site, have them clear their cache or open an incognito window and try accessing the site again.
Additional information
If there are problems after cache has been cleared or using an incognito window, contact OCLC Support.
