Is there is any issues with the OJS version 3.4.0-0? If yes I will not upgrade it to this new OJS 3.4.0-0.

Please suggest.

29

I strongly recommend this version for Fresh Journal PKP team is not check the upgradation process with previous version

If anyone use custom doi prefix it will give error for upgradation

I am also requested to PKP team to check this may be because of this in dowload version no upgradation doc is keep

Its already resolved by PKP team thakns for your help and concern

32

  • A database error has occurred: SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column ‘at.assoc_type’ in ‘where clause’ (SQL: select distinct at.type_id from announcement_types as at left join journals as c on at.assoc_id = c.journal_id where c.journal_id is null or at.assoc_type <> 256)

The upgrade you have performed has been done once after upgrading it, which has resulted in a schema change. I request you to please go through the upgrade process once again, preferably with a fresh install.
