OJS_3.3.0-4

After upgrading to version 3.3.0-4 from 3.1.1-2 some of the articles send a 404 error when I click in the pdf galley.

Comparing the articles that do work with those that give 404 errors, I find differences in the url.

This one works.

But this one doesn’t work.

From what I see there is a problem with the submission id when creating the URLs.

Hi @dvid,

I suspect you’re running into:

github.com/pkp/pkp-lib

Bug

After updating OJS from 3.2.1-1 to 3.3.0-4, article links to old articles are br…oken. For example, a link that should be `https://example.com/journal/article/view/123` becomes `https://example.com/journal/article/view/`, and a link to a pdf `https://example.com/journal/article/view/123/456` becomes `https://example.com/journal/article/view//456`. Looking at the database, these old entries in the table `publications` have an empty value for `url_path`. Changing the value of `url_path` to NULL fixes the problem.

This has been resolved in OJS 3.3.0-5.
