Hi @khairil_alkudus
In a stack with PHP7 you will need adjust in your config.inc.php your database driver parameter from “mysql” to “mysqli”.

Hi @khairil_alkudus,
Currently OJS 2.4.x won’t work with PHP7 – there’s a new PHP7 class called String which conflicts with the String class that’s already included in OJS 2.4.x.
OJS 3.x has renamed String to PKPString so it’ll work with PHP7.
We’re not sure yet whether we’ll back-port the PHP7 changes to OJS 2.x, but in the meantime, I would suggest either using PHP5.x or, better still, upgrading to OJS3.

Hi @asmecher
Would their be someone that we could approach to assist in the performing the changes required to ensure OJS 2.x works on PHP7. Possibly you have decided to back-port changes… any update will be appreciated.
