Unable to install new plugins or themes for OJS 3

Software Support
1

Hello,

I recently upgraded our journal from 2.4.7 to OJS 3 (v. 3.1.1.4, in French).

I am unable to install new plugins or themes from the Site setup/Plugins gallery. I can choose a new plugin in the list, see its details, click the install button, but when I click on OK in the Install dialog box, nothing happens (I only see the adress “…/management/settings/website#”).

Thank you for your help.

Best regards and happy new year.

Hi @nkuhne

Was the upgrade successful? If yes, so you see any relevant information in the PHP error log and browser console when trying to install a plugin?

Dear Vitaliy,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, the upgrade was (apparently) successful (although re-captcha does not function any more). I use PHP 5.6.

Here is the error log :

Nothing special there in the logs. How did you perform the upgrade, through the online tool or terminal (cmd)?
What messages have you seen during/after the database upgrade?

5

Through the online tool, with ftp. No message that I can remember of. Everything seems to work fine (except recaptcha). Would it be usefull to send you a complete error log (thousands of err) ?

N.

Those warnings are probably cosmetic. Can you search for something labeled as Fatal Error or Error?
Also, are there any errors in the browser’s console?
