OJS 3.3.0.10 installtion error

[tningal]

I am installing OJS 3.3.0.10 but get the following error.

Fatal error : Cannot make static method PKPApplication::getName() non static in class Application in /home/irishgeo/public_html/classes/core/Application.inc.php on line 59

I have checked the PHP version, chown, and chmod settings among other things but don’t seem to locate where the problem lies. I need help to get past this.

Any help to get this resolved and move ahead will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

What’s the PHP version in use?

Hi @tningal

There is a thread with a similar issue than yours which was caused by using a pre-release version of OJS code. How did you deploy your code? git clone? Have you checked ou the branch to the correct version?

See the post:
