Production Environment Information#

The PKP hosting server manages all IQSS owned OJS instances. The OJS production and sandbox instances are deployed as folders within the IQSS account home directory.

  • Sandbox folder: iqss.sandbox.sfulib8.publicknowledgeproject.org

  • Production folder: pre-review.iq.harvard.edu

There are other OJS installation folders within the IQSS account home directory. These are PKP prototypes and can be ignored.

This is the PKP folder structure for the OJS installations:

  • cgi-bin: not used.

  • logs: log files location.

  • www: source code location.

Main log files:

  • logs/secure-access_log: Apache access logs for our instance.

  • logs/secure-error_log: Standard log messages from the OJS application and PPR plugin.

Logs are daily gzipped into the monthly file, eg: 2024-04-secure-error_log.gz

To access the gzipped logs, use zless

zless logs/2024-04-secure-error_log.gz
