Description of issue or problem I’m having:
OJS 3.3.0.8
PKP PN Plugin was installed by Plugin Gallery.
PHP Version 7.4.25
The status is:
Network Status: The PKP PLN does not know about this journal yet.
ScheduledTasks Log:
[2022-01-04 09:53:57] [Notificación] Depositor processing for Revista Ingeniería UC. [2022-01-04 09:53:57] [Aviso] Your system must have a tar executable.
Hi @Ingenieria_UC,
that message typically indicates that not enough time has passed in order for the PKP PN to have captured your journal, or possibly that you do not have cron configured correctly, please see here: PKP Preservation Network

Do you have the Archive_Tar PEAR extension installed?
Yes, We have Archive_Tar PEAR extension installed.
Hi @Ingenieria_UC,
Check the tar setting in the cli section of your config.inc.php file. Is this setting configured, and does it point to an executable that PHP can access?
Regards?

Our config.inc.php cli:
tar = /usr/bin/tar
Now, we have obtained this error message:
Network error Client error: POST http://pkp-pln.lib.sfu.ca/api/sword/2.0/col-iri/DABDD8ED-AC15-42FC-BA1F-48A28C34B1F4 resulted in a 400 Bad Request response: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <sword:error xmlns=“Atom Syndication Format namespace” xmlns:sword="http://purl. (truncated…) connecting to the PKP PN to send the deposit.
Hi @Ingenieria_UC,
Did you change your configuration to resolve the Your system must have a tar executable error message? Or are you still receiving that error message?

We had updated, since two days ago; yesterday we got this error in the status section of PKP PN plugin.
Hi @Ingenieria_UC,
It may take a while for the PKP|PN service to get around to your journal; I’d suggest watching for changes for the next week or two.

Greetings,
This is the Editor-in-Chief of The Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine.
We run OJS version 3.3.0.8, which was updated on December 1, 2021. We do have the same technical problem related to the PKP PN plugin status as it continues (> 24 h, actually > 1 month) to display “Network Status: The PKP PLN does not know about this journal yet.”
Status Description
* Pending: The process of the deposit has not yet started.
* In Progress: The deposit process is in progress.
* Completed**: The deposit process is completed.
* Error: There has been an error regarding the deposit process.
It might take several days for a deposit to be fully processed.
As a veterinarian, I have no clue about this issue, especially if the journal is looking for a new website administrator to resolve it. Additionally, our membership acceptance in the Open Access Scholarly Publishing Association (OASPA) now depends on resolving this issue.
Could you please help us to fix this problem? Well, if the help could be without the technical terms that I have to check, it would be great.
By the way, we would like to make our website look more official. Could you please direct us to the best service we can get with the overall fees? It would be really appreciated.
Your efforts are really appreciated,
Thank you,
Falah AL-Rekabi

Hi @IJVM,
There are some troubleshooting instructions in the README document for the PKP|PN plugin; see:
In particular check out the lines about the log files; these will probably indicate where the system is running into trouble depositing content.

We also have problems with the export for OJS 3.3.0.8.
The task is scheduled and runs.
In the scheduled tasks log file (PKPPNAblieferungsaufgabe-61e806ccee059-20220119.log) it says:
2022-01-19 12:40:44] https://www.???.de

[2022-01-19 12:40:44] [Anmerkung] Geplante Aufgabe wurde beendet.
It asks for a tar program. However, it is only a warning, and no error message for this showed up in the UI (such as for a missing ZIP Archive).
Also, the task stopped as it should.
So far, we only have phar tar installed. Do we need to have pear archive_tar installed also?
Many thanks!
Felix
We installed the pear archive_tar, and now get the same network error message as @Ingenieria_UC:

Hi @felixhelix,
In the config.inc.php file, make sure you specified the location to a tar binary in cli section:

Dear @asmecher , dear @felixhelix
as far as I can see, the tar executable is not used anymore by the latest version of the PLN Plugin, isn’t it?!
See my recent findings on paths for the PLN Plugin: PKP PLN Plugin ask for Archive_Tar PHP extension - #49 by klausru
Make sure PEAR is in open_basedir AND include_path (with first in order)
All the best
Klaus
Thanks @asmecher and @klausru,
IT says that the path in the config is O.K.
Also, I cannot see how the error message is related to the tar executable:
After the installation of pear archive_tar
400 Bad Request)In the README there is no mentioning of tar as a requirement, only ZipArchive and CURL. But in the code it is mentioned that BagIt needs a tar executable. So something is at odds here.
Any other ideas what to check?
Thanks a lot!
Felix
@asmecher @klausru
I “resetted” each individual issue by clicking the “reset” link in the list of deposits, and now for each it shows the status “pending”!
So maybe it had to do with the task as it was called by the scheduler, or by the fact that there have been 10 issues to be deposited at once.
I keep you updated …
I am joining the company. The PKP PN plugin does not appear to work after upgrading to OJS 3.3.0.8 (actually, after upgrading from OJS 2 to OJS 3, but this version is out first with the support for the plugin).
I tried to wrap my head around this problem for a while, but I am still not sure what is causing the problem.
For the most time tle logs say this:
[2022-01-01 21:56:36] http://zfn.edu.pl

The tar seems to be correctly installed (and works in most other cases):
On an additional note, the deposit reset button has no effect whatsoever (seems to not working and does not give any feedback after clicking). The php log says:
zfn.edu.pl - [22/Jan/2022:20:34:25 +0100] "POST /index.php/zfn/$$$call$$$/plugins/generic/pln/controllers/grid/p-l-n-status-grid/reset-deposit?depositId=29 HTTP/1.1" 500 - "https://zfn.edu.pl/index.php/zfn/management/settings/website"
As of today, 24.01.2022, the PKP ON Plugin on our site reports “In Progress” for all issues. And the network status changed to “Network Status: The PKP PLN can accept deposits from this journal.”
