After install I got PHP Catchable fatal error

[the_eye]

After install I try to view local the harvester and I got a white page. (http://192.168.2.3/harvest/index.php/login)
Apache logs some warning and a fatal error (last line)

Hi the_eye,

Make sure your cache/ directory and all of its subdirectories and their contents are writable by the web server user (typically "www-data" or "apache", depending on your setup). If that doesn't correct the problem, turn on the show_stacktrace option in config.inc.php; this should give you more information in the log or on the screen.

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately nothing happens.
It did a
chmod -R 777 cache
chown -R www-data:www-data cache

and I change show_stacktrace to on
Nothing in browser.
In logs I got

Hi the_eye,

What version of the harvester are you using?

My mistake I forgot to mention it.
Version 2.3.0 downloaded from here http://pkp.sfu.ca/harvester_download

[asmecher]

Hi the_eye,

I suspect this is due to changes in PHP since that version of the Harvester was released. If you're handy with git, I'd suggest checking out a copy of the newest code from there; we'll be putting together a release fairly soon (i.e. within the next week or two). Barring those options, the best thing to do might be to downgrade your PHP install to something 5.1 or 5.2ish. (Our git repository is http://www.github.com/pkp.)

I did a little debug myself.
I insert a

Code: Select all

echo $category, $pathName;

in PluginRegistry.inc.php before line 136 and I get in browser

Code: Select all

themes

that seams that problem has to do with $pathName

I hope I am helping.
