Hi,

I exported issue via Native XML plugin from OJS 3.1.2 and tried to import it by Native XML in another 3.1.2 installation. I got this errors:

Warnings encountered:

  1. Submission
  • The provided filesize “8478” and the actual filesize “” do not match

How to solve or circumvent this? I need some urgent help, as I am rebuilding the contents of my journal.

Thank you all!!

The Native XML-import plugin does not seem to be stable in 3.1.2 (running in our test environment now).
In my case the import procedure gets interrupted without error warnings at all (error 500).
@bozana, I’ve PM’d the XML to you.

UPD: The export procedure for another issue stopped without warnings too (error 500 again).

We’ve just solved this by changing the default RAM limit for PHP 7.3 from 128Mb to 7Gb.

UPDATE: The errors were caused by some Word files, or custom CSS files associated with the article or some of the editorial stages. Since those files were not essential, I modified the XML file and deleted those specific files tagged within their <submission_file> tags.
I managed to import the files then.

Best,
Dijana

@bozana, just FYI: Preferred Public Name is not included in XML when exporting issues.
