Dear PKP team;

we are using OJS 2.3.8, recently we did purchase an SSL certificate which mean that we have our URL’s changed from HTTP to HTTPS; this cause the following error regarding OAI scheduled harvesting:

The request could not be completed due to the following error or errors.
Error Code badVerb
Illegal OAI verb

the settings within the config.inc.php file that cause the problem are:
1- disable_path_info = On
2- ; Force SSL connections site-wide
force_ssl = On

when changing the previous settings to OFF for both variables every thing is ok and the test at OAI succeeded !!
1- disable_path_info = Off
2- ; Force SSL connections site-wide
force_ssl = Off

i need both valuse to be “ON” and i need OAI to work; any idea about how to solve this issue?

Hi @Dr_Mohammad_Othman_N,

I see you’ve also posted this on another thread. Please don’t double-post; it clutters the forum.
