New OJS 3.2.0.1 installation on Ubuntu 18.04 loading indefinitely

Hi, I just installed the OJS 3.2.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.0.4 lts.

I am able to login with the administrator account but it stops there.

Every other page keeps loading endlessly and indefinitely. (see screenshots attached).

my installation is at https://fjs.fudutsinma.edu.ng

I also have the error below:

Notice : Deprecated call without request object. in /var/www/fjs.fudutsinma.edu.ng/lib/pkp/classes/template/PKPTemplateManager.inc.php on line 954

A look at the error log gives me the following records endlessly

Question is:

  1. How do I resolve this problem and commence setup?

Hi @tagber,

Make sure to configure your PHP settings so that errors/warnings are directed to the log file rather than the browser. When these are sent to the browser, they cause problems with AJAX requests.
