Hello @homeyn99,

Please note that the version of OJS that you’re using is no longer supported by PKP. I recommend that you upgrade to the newest version of OJS, as it is possible that your issue will be resolved by upgrading. However, other community members may wish to offer assistance.

Upgrading instructions are available in the PKP Administrator’s Guide and as part of our [Upgrade Guide] (https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/dev/upgrade-guide/).

Information about the latest version of OJS can be found on the PKP Website

Hello,

Actually, I have tried to update to the latest version 3.3.0. However, I have encounter issue with the database. Hence, I try to update to 3.1.2 since the version is not too far from my old version 3.1.1.4. However, there are many errors thrown when I try to update it. I have tried changing various PHP version PHP Version but still the error below thrown.

Hello @homeyn99,

Note that you accidentally exposed your MySQL credentials in the stack trace above. I’ve removed them from the post, but please change them ASAP, especially if you are sharing credentials with other services.

The mysql_connect error suggests that you’ve configured your MySQL driver to be mysql rather than mysqli in the config.inc.php configuration file. Use mysqli instead as your database driver.

Hi,

Thank you for telling me regarding the SQL exposed and I have updated the credentials.

I have tried to change to mysqli but I still encounter this error. I am not sure with this issue since it is related with handler.

Hi @homeyn99,

Your PHP configuration is set to send warnings and errors to the browser, which is interfering with the application. Change your PHP configuration so that errors and warnings are directed to the log, and the issue should go away. (This is the recommended production PHP configuration.)

Hi @asmecher ,

I have turned off the PHP error and the exact error is with the database.

Hi @homeyn99,

Can you describe what you’re doing in a little more detail? Your original post described trouble loading the “All Active Submissions” list, but now it appears that you’re attempting to run an installation or upgrade process.

Regards,
Alec Smecher
Public Knowledge Project Team

Hi,

Actually, my main issue is All Active submission is loading. The first reply to my question is, suggesting for upgrading since my current OJS is no longer supported. I try to upgrade on the staging site before doing it on the live site. However, when I try to upgrade, I have encountered the database issue. If “All Active Submission” can be solved without upgrading, then I don’t have to upgrade the OJS version.

The All-Active Submission issue, I’ve got API issue.

Hi @homeyn99,

PHP is still configured to send errors and warnings to the browser, as I mentioned above. You’ll need to change that.

Hi,

I turn on the debug mode on purpose just to check any error thrown.

I am not sure how to solve this since it is related with the application issue. Kindly assist on this how to solve this.

Hi @homeyn99,

The 500 response indicates that there was a fatal PHP error; look at your PHP error log to find details.

Hi @homeyn99,

OK, this is starting to look like a UTF-8 encoding issue. It’s likely that there is some bad data in your database; these can be hard to track down. I would suggest adding some error_log debugging to lib/pkp/api/v1/_submissions/PKPBackendSubmissionsHandler.inc.php leading up to line 167 (which triggers the error) to dump the data that is being built into the Slim response. Look for garbled accents or other strange characters.

If the database got scrambled e.g. due to an incorrectly set default character set, or dump/reload cycle across differently configured servers, or something similar, you may need to run the database through a tool like ftfy to unscramble special characters in it. Try searching the forums here for ftfy, and you’ll find discussions of that tool, and other solutions to scrambled UTF-8 content.
