Hi Marc,

Can you check that you're using the ojs-stable-2_4 branch for both the ojs and the pkp-lib repositories (the latter in lib/pkp)? OTOH I wonder if you haven't got master checked out in lib/pkp.

Thanks again Alec for your fast answer.

Yes, as you suspect I cloned ojs (master) and lib-pkp (master).
Github networks are now running really slow but from your comments I understund lib-pkp master is not still merged with 2_4_stable, isn't it?

I will try now been sure I work over 2_4_stable branches.
BTW, James told me to translate 2.4.2 but git tags ends at 2.4.1... I suppose the 2_4_stable branch is the one need to be translated so I can also download the tarball you distribute from your web, am I right?

Finally, have you any trick to clone full ojs (ojs plus lib-pkp) with a single git command?
Is not really important, but I'm curious.

Cheers,
m.

Hi Marc,

The master branch is for unstable development (which will be released as 3.0 eventually but is currently undergoing a lot of changes); the ojs-stable-2_4 branch is for 2.4.x releases, and we add a new tag to that branch whenever a new release is finalized. So for the moment, you're best off working with ojs-stable-2_4, which will be released soon as OJS 2.4.2.

There's no way to use git to fetch the submodules etc. all at once, but I've just posted a shell script at http://pkp.sfu.ca/wiki/index.php/HOW-TO_check_out_PKP_applications_from_git that should simplify the checkout process for those working from github.

Perfect documentation and script Alec. Just what I was looking for.
It will facilitate our internal control of the translations as well as the distribution back to you (PKP).
If I find time and is ok for you, I will extend the wiki (http://pkp.sfu.ca/wiki/index.php/Frequent_git_use_cases) for translators.

Let's see if the "site login issue" disappears with the code of the ojs-stable-2_4 branch...
although I'm suspect it won't as far as the official tarball for 2.4.1 still fails.

Cheers,
m.

Silly me, I missed to SUBMIT this post I wrote on 23th just after Alec's one.
I think what I aid it's still relevant in this thread ("login issue with multiOJS"), so I publish it anyway:

-----------

Hi Alec,

To be completely sure the code versions were synchronized I tried directly with the tarball you distribute from your PKP website (released as OJS 2.4.1).

With RESTful and without patching SessionsManager.inc.php and bootstrap.inc.php I'm unable to login in the Site (index) or the Magazine (trad241).
With RESTful and patching both files I'm able to login in the manager (trad241) but not in the Site (index).

In this last case, while user keeps logged in the magazine, when I visit links to the Site (ojs-trad241) I'm redirected to login at:
http://revistes.uab.cat/ojs-trad241/log ... 241%2Fuser

In other words, I'm able to reach the magazine (as Journal Manager or whatever) but I'm unable to do anything as Site Administrator as far as any link is redirected to login page.

I'm pretty sure mod_rewrite is working fine (I'm testing new code in our production server and 2.3.6 is working like a charm).
The point is this issue sounds a lot like former one so seams to me that I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks again,
m.

Hi Marc,

Would you mind PMing me some test credentials? I'd like to look at the URLs and the cookie that gets generated.

Thanks,

Unbelievable. Cleaning cookies did the job.
Now I'm able to reach the site and magazine with the brand new ojs-stable-2_4.

Hurray !!

Thanks Alec. The issue part related with this thread is now official closed.
MultiOJS script is now OJS 2.4.x compliant (with the two patches commented before).

BTW Alec, is it possible to add those two patches to the official branch?
If not now (I understand it need further testing), what about 2.4.3?

Let's go to translate.

Cheers,
m

PD to Alec: I sent you the credentials you asked for as well as a doubt about translations.
If you find time, answer the PM, please.
