Dear,

I´m trying to upgrade OJS from verion 3.1.0 to version 3.1.2-4. Whey i execute the script to upgrade tha database version I´m receiving the following error:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class ‘ADODB2_postgres’ not found in /var/www/ojs-3.1.2-4/lib/pkp/lib/adodb/adodb.inc.php:4436
Stack trace:

I think is missing the adodb class. If i need to install it, how could i do that?

The command i´m executing the upgrade is php74 tools/upgrade.php upgrade. I´m executing it from /var/www/ojs-3.1.2-4/ directory.

Hi @Marcio,

Check the contents of lib/pkp/lib/adodb/datadict/datadict-postgres.inc.php; I suspect they have been modified somehow.

Will you please let me know the steps to upgrade the OJS!!
Thanks please.

In my ojs-3.1.2-4 this file is completely empty. Is it normal? Follow the output from ls -l command in lib/pkp/lib/adodb/datadict/ directory.

Hi @Marcio,

That’s definitely the problem; I’m not sure why yours is empty, but if you check the OJS download, you’ll see that file has contents.

asmecher, Thanks for answer me. I copied the datadict-postgres.inc.php file again and this error was solved but now I´m receiving the following error:

Do you think i need download and reinstall OJS again? Looks like some files were not downloaded properly.

Hi @Marcio,

That might be the best approach – I’m not sure what happened on your system, but your files are definitely different from the ones that ship in the .tar.gz file.

Hi @asmecher,

Thanks for Help me. I upgraded the OJS sucessfully. I only did three steps:

Downloaded the OJS code again

Installed a dump from older OJS database

Executed the database upgrade script

Thanks a lot.
