Two problems with OJS 3.1.1

[Taz]

I recently upgraded to OJS 3.1.1.
I am getting following errors on JS console when I try to access submissions page on admin panel .

2ModalHandler.js:210 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'focus' of undefined

1. When I try to access the URL that returns 500 error I get
Slim Application Error
A website error has occurred. Sorry for the temporary inconvenience.

2. however when I remove index.php/journal name/ from path I get
Fatal Error: [06-Apr-2018 15:02:57 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function import() in C:\wamp64\www\tjapril1\api\v1\_submissions\index.php:19

How can I solve these?

My base URL is
base_url = “http://localhost:8080/tjapril1/” I also tried base_url = “http://localhost:8080/tjapril1/index.php/technical-journal/”

and restful_urls = Off

Fixed using settings suggested here

[OJS 3.1.0.1] Error in Submission setting area

Hi @israel.cefrin and @maurox, i don’t know if this suggestion can be useful for everyone, in my case i fixed my “submission pop-up problem”, changing the Localization Settings in my config.in.php file. I explain: from this setting: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Localization Settings ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; [i18n] ; Default locale locale = en_US ; Client output/input character set client_charset = utf-8 ; Database connection character set ; Must be set to “Off” if not supported by…

But will it affect functionality considering my DB using latin1 coalition and not utf8?

[asmecher]

Hi @Taz,

MySQL will happily store UTF-8 data in a table that thinks it’s Latin1, if that’s what you tell it to do. In that case, some kinds of features won’t work properly – string lengths will appear different than expected, text conversions like upper/lower case may get things wrong, etc.

Any solution to avoid these problems?

[asmecher]

Hi @Taz,

Yes, I would suggest transcoding your database to a proper UTF-8 configuration using something like iconv or ftfy. You might find some useful information on StackOverflow.com.

At the moment your data encoding is wrong, but consistently wrong; beware of accidentally mixing correct and incorrect encodings together, as that gets really difficult to untangle (though ftfy can help).

Hi Alec,
Thanks.

Converted using this guide.
