Hi @angelu_tp

Are you running the command from your base OJS directory? The full command should be:

php tools/upgrade.php check

Cheers,
Jason

Yes, im doing! Should i try in a older version?

Out of curiosity, have you tried the upgrade? (after making backups of your database and files, of course)

Cheers,
Jason

Hi, i already changed my php version to 5.6, but now im getting a new error message it is: ERROR: Upgrade failed: ##installer.unsupportedPhpError##

What version are you upgrading to? OJS 3.1.2 requires PHP7.

Cheers,
Jason

You mentioned you tried “upgrade check” on PHP7, but did you run the actual upgrade itself?

Cheers,
