Error 500 registration page

diegomejia07 · December 6, 2019, 8:59pm

I am using the ojs in version 3.1.2.0, but when I click on the register button, on the main page of the platform I get the following:

And this is the error that I get in the php logs:

[Fri Dec 06 15:59:10.225204 2019] [php7:error] [pid 11114] [client 172.20.0.152:58773] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function getId() on null in /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/plugins/generic/orcidProfile/OrcidProfilePlugin.inc.php:253\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/plugins/generic/orcidProfile/OrcidProfilePlugin.inc.php(289): OrcidProfilePlugin->buildOAuthUrl(‘orcidAuthorize’, Array)\n#1 /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/lib/pkp/lib/vendor/smarty/smarty/libs/sysplugins/smarty_internal_runtime_filterhandler.php(63): OrcidProfilePlugin->registrationFilter(’\n\t\n\n\t\n\n<!DOCTYP…’, Object(Smarty_Internal_Template))\n#2 /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/lib/pkp/lib/vendor/smarty/smarty/libs/sysplugins/smarty_internal_template.php(231): Smarty_Internal_Runtime_FilterHandler->runFilter(‘output’, ‘\n\t\n\n\t\n\n<!DOCTYP…’, Object(Smarty_Internal_Template))\n#3 /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/lib/pkp/lib/vendor/smarty/smarty/libs/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatebase.php(232): Smarty_Internal_Template->render(false, 1)\n#4 /var/www/html/site. in /var/www/html/site.revistas.udea.edu.co/plugins/generic/orcidProfile/OrcidProfilePlugin.inc.php on line 253, referer: http://revistas.udea.edu.co/

Thank you very much for the help.

Hi @diegomejia07,

Looks like this error comes from the ORCID Profile Plugin. Can you ensure that you are using the latest version?

Hi @Vitaliy,

This is the version I am using right now

Regards.

The code here suggests that this shouldn’t be enabled for the site index:

github.com

pkp/orcidProfile/blob/b55246df95f4f6a3c13c6ddd783e66e06f598ee3/OrcidProfilePlugin.inc.php#L251-L253


		// This should only ever happen within a context, never site-wide.
		assert($context != null);
		$contextId = $context->getId();

but only enabled within a journal context.

Your URL is referencing the site index: “index.php/index/user/register”. I’m not sure why the code excludes the possibility of registering from the site index, but this should work from within any specific journal.

Hello @ctgraham
is it possible to have a gracefully failure instead of an error page?

Thanks

Agreed. I’ve opened this as a bug report here:

bug

**Describe the bug** Plugin causes 500 error on the registration page in the si…te context. **To Reproduce** Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1. Enable orcidProfile pluigin 2. Initiate registration within the site context 3. See error: `PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function getId() on null` **Expected behavior** Either registration using the orcidProfile plugin works within the site index, or the code fails gracefully to register without orcidProfile functionality in the site index. **Additional context** https://forum.pkp.sfu.ca/t/error-500-registration-page/57411/4?u=ctgraham

Hi @marchitelli ,

I have released two versions in plugin-gallery, which should address this issue.

OJS 3.1 Release v1_1_1-12 · pkp/orcidProfile · GitHub
OJS 3.2 Release v1_1_2-7 · pkp/orcidProfile · GitHub

Please test it and let me know if the problem still persists.
