Cant add reviewer

[OpiqO]

I have reported this issue, but @asmecher asked me to create a new topic regarding this problem. I would really appreciate it if anyone could provide a solution. I have configured the config.inc.php, and I have also granted permissions to the directory folder. There are no error reports in the log, only several occurrences of “OJS2: 404 Not Found.”
We sincerely request your immediate assistance, as our campus is approaching a crucial accreditation process. Your support would mean the world to us during this important time, and we are truly grateful for any help you can provide.

I am using OJS 3.3.0.18

loading and nothing

from log error

I would be very grateful if anyone could help. Thank you, and best regards.

Have you tried this?

PKP pn plugin installation problem

Hi @sohailkmu, Currently there is no way for the plugin to automatically install itself without using the PHP exec() function. (This requirement may be relaxed in the future – see Reduce dependency on `exec` · Issue #7083 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub If you’re able, I’d recommend temporarily enabling the exec() function, installing the plugin, then disabling exec() afterwards. Regards, Alec Smecher Public Knowledge Project Team

The process of disabling exec() may vary depending on the hosting software you’re using, such as cPanel, DirectAdmin, or Plesk.

Could you let me know which hosting software you’re using? I also recommend reaching out to your hosting or server provider for assistance, as they can guide you through the specific steps or handle this for you directly.

big thanks for ure respon @kerimsarigul

I am using cPanel, here is the display…

To enable the exec() function in cPanel

1. Access cPanel

• Log in to your cPanel account.

2. Edit the php.ini File

• In the cPanel dashboard, look for MultiPHP INI Editor under the Software section.
• Select the domain or the global PHP settings for the server.
• Scroll down to the disable_functions directive.
• If exec() is listed here (along with other functions like passthru, shell_exec, etc.), remove exec from the list.

For example, change:

disable_functions = exec,passthru,shell_exec,system

To:

disable_functions = passthru,shell_exec,system

3. Save and Apply the Changes

• After editing the disable_functions directive, save your changes.

4. Restart the Web Server (if necessary)

• Sometimes you might need to restart Apache for the changes to take effect. If you’re on shared hosting, you may not have control over this, so it’s best to ask your hosting provider if a restart is needed.

If you’re unsure about these changes or don’t have access to certain settings, it’s a good idea to reach out to your hosting provider for assistance. Let me know if you need further help!

I apologize for my lack of knowledge @kerimsarigul, but I can’t find the ‘disable function’ that was mentioned. I’m sorry for my limitations, but could you kindly show me the way?

I truly appreciate your help.

Try the editor mode

1. Click on “Editor Mode”.
   

   

2. Select the “Domain Name”.

3. Enter the PHP functions in front of “disable_functions = # # # #” to disable the PHP function.

For Example: disable_functions = exec, system, passthru, pcntl_exec, popen, proc_open, shell_exec

4. Click on the “Save” button.To enable the disabled function, remove the specific PHP function from the “disable_function” list.

If that doesn’t work, contact your hosting provider for help.
