Hi @rodrigo_snape,

I would suggest upgrading to a recent release of OJS.

I’m getting this error:

[12-Mar-2016 01:13:26 America/Sao_Paulo] ojs2 has produced an error

I just wanna a way to fix it without upgrading. There is a way?

The lines are:

(61) assert(is_a($request, ‘PKPRequest’));

// Retrieve the router
(64)$router =& $request->getRouter();

Thks in advance!

Hi @rodrigo_snape,

Try turning on the show_stacktrace option in config.inc.php – that’ll generate a full stack trace which will give more information on what functions are being called. But you’re most likely hitting a problem that’s already been fixed, and the best solution is definitely to upgrade.
