Hi @asmecher,
I am very happy I have solved the DB error associated with Max_join_size which occurs when viewing the lists of manuscripts in the editor panel. Here is what I did: I added
mysql_query("SET SQL_BIG_SELECTS=1");
below line 175
function &retrieveRange($sql, $params = false, $dbResultRange = null, $callHooks = true) {
in /lib/pkp/classes/db/DAO.inc.php. It should look like this after the modification:
function &retrieveRange($sql, $params = false, $dbResultRange = null, $callHooks = true) {
mysql_query("SET SQL_BIG_SELECTS=1");
if ($callHooks === true && checkPhpVersion('4.3.0')) {
I found out the problem by turning on show_stacktrace in config.inc.php.
So I have a working 2.4.8 and am still trying to upgrade it to 3.1.1 with your help.
Thanks a lot.
Paul
