When registering a new journal title, I get this error:

Warning: mkdir(public/journals/10): File exists in /usr/local/ojs-2.0.2-1/classes/file/FileManager.inc.php on line 239

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/ojs-2.0.2-1/classes/file/FileManager.inc.php:239) in /usr/local/ojs-2.0.2-1/classes/core/Request.inc.php on line 32

It appears to be a spurious error, though, as I can go back to the main listing of journal titles and the new one is there and working fine for setup purposes. I did not see this error mentioned in the Forum.

Hello drjhf,

Is this a repeatable error, or did it only appear once? (For example, if you create another journal, does the message appear repeatably?)

This has repeated for each of 5 journals on the one site. Same error precisely. And yet the new journal title is always created properly.

Hmm... Are you running Apache 2.0? What version of PHP are you running? I've had one report of a similar problem, but I wasn't able to track it down. If you provide me with some details, I can investigate further.

We are running PHP 4.3.10-16 and Apache 1.3.33.

In addition, when I went into one existing journal and, as journal manager, created a new user, I received this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /usr/local/ojs-2.0.2-1/classes/manager/form/UserManagementForm.inc.php on line 232

Interestingly enough, when refreshing the user list, the person was listed.

Thanks

Hi drjhf,

The error message you mention has been corrected in OJS 2.1 (see http://research2.csci.educ.ubc.ca/cgi-b ... 27;r2=1.28); the earlier problem with duplicate journals, however, is still an unknown and I can't reproduce it. If you're able to discover the cause, please let me know.

In a completely new installation on a different server, when I create a new journal title and save it, the screen refreshes and becomes a blank screen, with this code as viewable (see below). Any thoughts? Going to the journal page and refreshing shows that the new title was created...
Thanks, Alec

Hi Julian,

This kind of odd behavior usually indicates an out-of-memory situation; check to make sure that your system's php.ini has a high enough memory_limit (generally 12M or 16M suffices).
