    Default Your database appears to need patching to a higher level.

    Code:
    Your database appears to need patching to a higher level. See Tools->Server Information to review patch levels.
    --- I find nothing to fix or even explain this error. There is little help when clicking to Tools->Server.

    Can someone explain in plain English how to fix this? I have halted all uprades on client ZEN carts until this issue is resolved.

    Default Re: Your database appears to need patching to a higher level.

    It simply means that the database-version and the Zen Cart PHP files version are mismatched.

    So, either you've upgraded the database and not all the PHP files, or you've upgraded the PHP files and not the database.

    red flag Re: Your database appears to need patching to a higher level.

    I upgraded an older version to 1.3.9h and per instructions did an install with a new database. Then per instructions I did a backup from the old database in order to restore all the products, customers etc.

    All the content and the original template are now working and accepting orders but I cannot get rid of that error across the top of every page.





    Perhaps someone should edit the title for the upgrade.

    It says "3 EASY STEPS TO UPGRADE ZEN CART™"

    Suggested title. "3 NOT SO EASY STEPS TO UPGRADE ZEN CART™"

    You have to run the database upgrade with zc_install only...
