Your database appears to need patching to a higher level?

I just updated Zen to v1.38a, with a Database Patch Level of 1.3.5, and my home page now says

-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Your database appears to need patching to a higher level. See Admin->Tools->Server Information to review patch levels
-=-=-=-=-=-=-

So how do I do that?

I see the permisson error, but have had to ask my HOST to do it, since my Filezilla (or the server) dosent change the permissions when I apply it.

Thanks for the reads and help. :frusty:

Re: Your database appears to need patching to a higher level?

Run the zc_install for 1.3.8a again only this time, make sure to choose Upgrade. Then upgrade one version at a time < this will make more sense once you see the upgrade page.

Remember to delete the 'zc_install' dir. afterwards.

The learning is in the doing.

Installing zencart via Fantastico not good idea, as when trying to upgrade at later date, result you are experiencing happens..
