Hi @asmecher,
It is that this json has 84000 characters and the editor allows only 32000.
Equally as soon as I activate the PLN plugin, and I try to open the plugins link, it keeps loading and never ends and the following error appears:
200.24.17.147 - - [04/Aug/2020:15:53:59 -0500] “GET /index.php/pruebas_diego/$$$call$$$/grid/settings/plugins/settings-plugin-grid/manage?verb=settings&plugin=plnplugin&category=generic&_=1596574377542 HTTP/1.1” 500 444 “https://revistas.udea.edu.co/index.php/pruebas_diego/management/settings/website” “Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/84.0.4147.105 Safari/537.36”
And when I am clicking on PLN plugin settings, I get the following error:
Hi @diegomejia07,
Before I debug further – have you installed the Archive_Tar PEAR module? The PKP|PN plugin requires this.

Hello all,
I have the same problem, after installing the PKP PN plugin I get the AJAX error,
The error log file gives me the following error
[05-Aug-2020 15:41:15 UTC] PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/home/jastt2/public_html/lib/pkp/classes/helpers/PKPCurlHelper.inc.php' (include_path='.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php73/root/usr/share/pear') in /home/jastt2/public_html/lib/pkp/includes/functions.inc.php on line 25
also, I’ve updated the PLNPlugin.inc.php file and changed the following code
from
if(!@include_once('Archive/Tar.php')) {
to
if(include_once('Archive/Tar.php')) {
So, any update about this issue?
BTW, the Pear module and Zip extension are both installed on the server.
The OJS version I’m using is: 3.2.1.1 and PKP PN V 2.0.3.1 2020.07.21
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Jacksi
Hi @KarwanJacksi,
Are you sure you’re using OJS 3.2.1-1? It should definitely include a lib/pkp/classes/helpers/PKPCurlHelper.inc.php.

Sorry for the incorrect mention of PKP PN version. It is pln-v2.0.1-0.
Yes, I do, it is the latest version released. Current Production Release (June 26, 2020)
So, any idea about that? I still get the AJAX error with the above PHP fatal error. When I disable the PN Plugin, there is no fatal error in the PHP log file.
Kind regards,
Jacksi
Hi @KarwanJacksi,
I think the file lib/pkp/classes/helpers/PKPCurlHelper.inc.php is missing from your installation. You can get it from the .tar.gz download corresponding to the version of OJS that you’re running.

@asmecher,
I don’t have this file that you mention in my OJS 3.1.2 installation, and I download the version of this official version and the helpers folder doesn’t exist either
This is my installation
This is the downloaded installation folder
Hi @asmecher,
The Archive_Tar PEAR module, if it is installed on my server.
Hi @diegomejia07,
The problem you’re encountering is different than the one @KarwanJacksi is encountering (with the missing class file). In OJS 3.1.2 that file shouldn’t exist (and the plugin doesn’t try to use it).
Thanks for confirming that the Archive_Tar module is enabled and working.
Next, I’d suggest trying to capture and check the server’s JSON that it sends to your browser, which seems not to be parseable. See these instructions: OJS 3.2.1-1 error: Failed Ajax request or invalid JSON returned - #19 by asmecher

OMG!, yes that was the problem!
Thanks a lot!

Hi @asmecher,
I have not asked to find the error, I do not know what happens when I activate the plugin, and I really want it to work.
My version of OJS is 3.1.2.0. This plugin should work in this version?
Hi @asmecher,
I found this error, but I don’t know if it has something to do with this

Hi @diegomejia07,
Were you able to try my debugging suggestion above?

hello @asmecher and all … I’m facing this very problem in our OJS 3.1.2.1 installation with the PKP PN plugin v 2.0.1.1 installed
I have checked that php zip and the PEAR Archive_Tar extensions are installed and modified the plugins/generic/PLNPlugin.inc.php file to remove the ‘!@’ before include_once()
I get the same “Failed Ajax request or invalid JSON returned” error when PN plugin settings are called.
There is no error logged in the apache logs at the moment of the error.
I tried to inspect the response through the browser’s console but all I can see is the error code and the headers … there is nothing under the Network’s “Response” tab to check…
I might not doing a good job here, as I have little experience with these tools.
Any tip or pointer to solve this will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards

Thanks for thepromp response @asmecher …
I have now removed all the error suppression in the files listed in your post … but with the same result … nothing gets logged at the moment of the error.
Hi @hilongo,
In your message above, you mentioned that you removed @! before include_once – you should only be removing the @ part.
Regards,
Alec Smecher
Public Knowledge Project Team
Yep … Sorry about that … I have reverted the changes and correctly removed only the ‘@’ from the lines. Sadly the situation haven’t changed.
@asmecher … I have the same installation in a test server upgraded to version 3.2.0.3 with the plugin updated and working (at least the plugin’s settings page loads without error) … so maybe is a version incompatibility problem…
I’m about to start upgrading our system all the way to 3.2.1.1 … so maybe this problem will be “solved” in a few more days… and I’ll be posting some new threads 
Thanks again !
