Describe the issue or problem
I’m trying to add a collaborator to an article that already has an author, but the form won’t submit. Checking the browser console, I see a 500 error response.
What application are you using?
For example, OJS 3.2.0.3 (yes, very old!)
Additional information
The URL that is called by the form submit is: DOMAIN/FOLDER/index.php/methaodos/$$$call$$$/grid/users/author/author-grid/update-author?authorId=
It doesn’t have any variables, that seems wrong. Checking the PHP error_log, I see this:
PHP Notice: unserialize(): Error at offset 0 of 27 bytes in /home/USER/public_html/FOLDER/lib/pkp/classes/db/DAO.inc.php on line 357
