OJS 3 upgrade testing

Hi @ramon,

  • The double slash in /var/www/OJS3PATH/files/journals/9//articles/3766/attachment/3766-1-10285-1-13-20170131.docx is a red herring; UNIX-like operating systems will ignore this.
  • Make sure that your files directory is not web accessible! This is a security risk.
  • Disable memcache. I haven’t tested this recently and don’t know whether it’s working.
  • The Permission denied message suggests that your file permissions in the cache subdirectory aren’t correct. Verify these.
  • To debug the plugin issue, I’d suggest disabling the plugins you attempted to enable, and re-enabling them one at a time. If you can’t access the web interface, you can disable these by updating the enabled setting in the plugin_settings table. Make sure you flush the cache (rm cache/*.php) after working with these manually in the database. If you’re able to narrow it down to a specific plugin, that’ll help.
