I am new in the forum. I am managing about 8 journals on different institutional OJS servers (one for each). We’ve been working for a while on the former version 2.4.8.1 and now one or two of them have upgraded to the OJS 3 (the newer journals). Right now we have installed the 3.0.1 version and have the same question about Quick Submit plugin. If I understand right this plugin should be displayed and work properly on 3.0.1 by simply installing it from GitHub - pkp/quickSubmit. Or do we need to upgrade to 3.0.2? Is more recommended to do so?
If the rest of the journals decide to upgrade to the latest version of OJS we will definitely will need a good Quick Submit plugin, since we’ll have to deal in some cases with more than a hundred of journal issues. Or do you know if is there a faster way to move the journal contents up to the 3 version?
Lastly, do you have any schedule or calendar about if former versions will eventually stop working? What will happen with the OJS 2?
Thanks in advance and Regards

Hello
i am a new user of Open Journal System, and i have a problem.
When i tried install QuickSUbmit (from de backend), system didn,t permit (it didn,t anything). The message that the system send me is: Command Tar is not available. Configure it correctly in “config.inc.php”.
After this, i installed QuickSubmit “manually” (uploading files). QuickSubmit is installed, but it don,t work correct. Backend of OJS tell me “can be updated”.
I try to update, but it dont work… Telle me the same message: Command Tar is not available. Configure it correctly in “config.inc.php”.
Then, my problem is that i don,t know how can a i configurate the file config.inc.php, with the purpose that QuickSubmit work.
Please, if you can help me, i,ll be grateful.
Thanks!
PD: Sorry for my English, is not my languaje, but i hope you understand.
Your OJS installation probably doesn’t have file permissions set such that the web interface can install new plugins. It’ll attempt to put the plugin into plugins/importexport/quickSubmit (creating that directory in the process) – make sure that your file permissions allow OJS to do this. (There’s a FAQ entry on file permissions in this forum.)

I have the same problem but there is a work-around if you download the plugin from Github and put it in the right place (/plugins/importexport) using FTP . I would still like to get Tar working though.
I have installed ojs 3.1.2.1 july version (latest). And installed Quicksubmit plugin from the Gallery. But it doesn’t work, showing http 500 error. @asmecher please help.
We are having the same problem when we are trying to use the quick submit plugin after installing ojs-3.1.2-1 . We are accessing it from the plugins gallery and when we do so then it gets stuck and nothing happens after that. Can you please help us with this? We have tried all the methods described here in this thread but it is not working.
Dear @asmecher, We have checked it but there is nothing noteable that could help us with this issue. Is it possible for you to check this issue and help us resolve it if we provide the credentials to you?
I’m afraid that’s beyond the level of support I can provide here – but if you’re able to identify a message in your PHP error log, perhaps I can help further. (This may be helpful: How do I find my PHP error log?)
