Greeting of the day
We have updated from ojs3.2.1 to ojs3.2.1-1. There was a problem with plugin updates which was resolved by a change in code. Everything was going fine however for the last 2 days, the metrics from paperbuzz, and total downloads are stopped updating new counts. New articles published does not show any available metrics even after 72 hours. The article stats in the dashboard are also not showing any updates in abstract views or file views, not it is updating a list of more articles published even after 72 hours.
KIndly help us

Hi @blmirza,
There werenāt major changes between 3.2.1 and 3.2.1-1 that would explain this, I donāt think. Check your PHP error for anything relevant, and files with paths starting scheduledTaskLogs/Usagestatisticsfileloadertask- in your files_dir. Make sure that you didnāt accidentally change the base_url setting in your config.inc.php when you upgraded.

This is error there
Hi @blmirza,
What do you see in /home/jpedasor/files/usageStats/processing?

Sir there was a 8th july log file there
Hi @blmirza,
That suggests that the processing of that log file was interrupted. There is a description here of how the files are moved as they are processed. I would suggest moving the file out of that directory temporarily, to see if this restores the processing to normal; then check the processing log again after 24 hours have passed to see whether processing has continued.

Thanks Sir, the problem of metrics solved.
On inspection of files directory schedules tasks logs, it was identified that a files of ā¦20200707.log is failed to process and lies in āprocessā folder.
I looked usagestats folder in files dir, and found ā¦20200707.log file in the process folder.
I checked stage and reject folders, both were empty
Three log files (708, 709, 710) were present in āusageEventslogsā folder
I disabled acron plugin from installed plugin in ojs dashboard
I created a cron job in my Cpanel admin ā/usr/local/bin/php /home/jpedasor/public_html/ojs/tools/runScheduledTasks.php plugins/generic/usageStats/scheduledTasks.xmlā
I moved unprocessed log files into the āstageā folder, on cron job, they all processed but to ārejectā folder. On checking logs, it showed line one of these log files have some illegal entry.
I visited my installed plugin section of ojs dashboard. I checked setting of āusage statistics pluginā and clicked/checked option of ācreate log filesā.
Following that I again moved all files in āusageEventslogsā folder. I set cron job to 2 minutes interval.
I moved files from āusageEventslogsā folder to āstageā folder one by one. It processed all files successfully to āarchiveā folder. Now the statistics/metrics on all the published articles are updated.
I reset cron job interval to 12 hours.
I wonder if I have to move file from āusageEventslogsā folder to stage folder manually on daily basis or it will be done automatically.
Lets see.
Thanks for the help.
Best Regards

I followed the method you explained above on using cron to processing this, but find emailed error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected āversionā (T_STRING) in /home/adeputra23/public_html/myjurnal/plugins/generic/usageStats/scheduledTasks.xml on line 1
Any advice, please?
Thanks!
