OJS 3.2.1.2 PHP Recommended/Required libraries

We are preparing to install OJS 3.2.1.2 on a RHEL-8 server with PHP PHP 7.2.24, mariadb 10.3.17-1, and apache 2.4.37-30

  • As far as needed php libraries, I am curious which php libraries to install. Here are some common ones:

php-common
php-opcache
php-cli
php-gd
php-curl
php-mysqlnd
php-odbc
php-pear
php-xml
php-xmlrpc
php-mbstring
php-snmp
php-soap
php-fpm
php-json

-Which of these are required?
-Which of these are not required, but recommended?
-Which of these are overkill?
-Are there any more that are required ?
-Are there any more that are recommended?

Hello @dchardin,

Please see this post for how to determine the needed PHP libraries: OJS 3.2.1-1 error: Failed Ajax request or invalid JSON returned - #27 by ugp2, that contains some relevant information about recommended libraries.

Best regards,

Roger
