"database appears to need patching" just after install

Hi!
I know my question is not something new. But I did not find solution.

There is warning string:
Your database appears to need patching to a higher level. See Admin->Tools->Server Information to review patch levels.

I've installed Zen version 1.3.8. and just is getting the warning. Following is thew configuration
Database: MySQL 4.1.25-log
PHP Version: 5.2.10 (Zend: 2.2.0)
Server OS: FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE-p3

Re: "database appears to need patching" just after install

Is your install ZC 1.3.8 or ZC 1.3.8.a ?

Was it a manual install or automatic via cPanel Fantastico?

Thanks for your responce.
Zen cart was downloaded from zen-cart home page, it seems me as version 1.3.8. After the download, it was unzipped, copied and ran manualy(?) install from http//<my-domain-root>/zc-install.

Re: "database appears to need patching" just after install

if your ZC was downloaded only recently then it is most likely the most up to date version.

if you can access the admin then admin>tools>server version info should give you an idea which ZC version you are running.

also: in admin top right hand corner look for something like "Your version of Zen Cart™ appears to be current." or for a button to update.

on my previous post click the link to the patches, scroll to 1.3.8 and click dealing with known bugs etc.

hope this helps

Re: "database appears to need patching" just after install

OK all.

I removed previously installed Zen-Cart and install new one via Fantastico cPanel. It's working now perfect.
:cool:
Thanks All.
