Hi

I’ve recently upgraded to 2.4.8-3 from 2.3.6 and I’ve run into a lot of problems.

The below error messages are shown in apache error log. The perrmissions on file_dir, public, cache dir are
readable and writeable to user apache; www-data. The installation is on linux ubuntu.

In which sirectory the subdirectory /usageStats is being created ? The user apache www-data has write permission in all directories below ojs-2.4.8-3 (ojs installation directory/dados/www/seer/ojs-2.4.8-3)

6

The usageStats is created on root directory. The apache user has not writable right in root directory.

7

is it possible to configure to usageStats to be creted within ojs installation directory ?
