    Default Database needs patching?

    Upgraded from 1.5.1 to 1.5.4 Installed 1.5.1 first, clean copy, no mods. I then downloaded 1.5.4 and dragged and dropped all of the files and folders except the zc_install folder.

    When I logged into the admin I get the following error across the top:
    Warning Your database appears to need patching to a higher level. See Tools->Server Information to review patch levels.

    How do I do this?

    Any chance of explaining this further? The zc_install folder doesn't seem to contain an executable to run anything. Many thanks!

    Zen Cart is a web application. There's no .exe file involved.
    To run a web application:
    a) upload the files to the webserver
    b) open your browser to that website, and navigate to the directory where you uploaded the files

    So, in the case of zc_install, you upload the zc_install folder to your website (just like you upload all the other files to run the store), and then in your browser, go to http://YOUR_SITE_NAME.com/zc_install and follow the instructions.
