Incorrect version number after update (General)

Hello

"Error in line 291: The version you want to install (see string in config/VERSION) must be greater than the current installed version. Current version: 2.4.6, version you want to install: 2.4.6. Please check also if you uploaded the actual file version of config/VERSION. Search therefore for the file date and compare it with the date from the installation package"

config/VERSION said 2.4.6, and it worked when I changed it to 2.4.13.

So far so good. The eror message led you to the necessary check what led you to the solution.

Perhaps it should be included in the instructions that you have to change config/VERSION to the version you want to install to as well?

Ah, no and yes. The wiki page about updating states the necessity of using the file config/VERSION from the package one wants to upgrade to. But on the other hand you are right, the readme could contain a section about the updating process as well and therein the use of the actual file config/VERSION should be mentioned as a mandatory requirement for the update/upgrade.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Tschö, Auge
