Database needs patching

hi i am getting this message after doing a manual upgrade from 1.302 to 1.3.7.
Your database appears to need patching to a higher level. See Tools->Server Information to review patch levels.
however my patch level IS 1.3.7
i have now upgraded the databases a few time and i still get this message.
does anyone know what i can do?
thanks, MM

when you run the ZC_install folder
do you see where it says upgrade only?
what boxes are checked?

i have been checking the 13.02 to 1.3.5, 1.35 to 1.36, 1.3.6 to 1.3.7
then i tried just the last box 1.3.6 to 1.3.7

i just uploaded a new zc_install folder and tried again. it didnt change.

i have been reading other posts and just realized i may have forgotten to give info that was needed. when i upgraded i missed fixing one line in the cofigure.php file that gave the prefix zen_ . i dont use a prefix. i got an error when upgrading the database telling me that it couldnt find zen_project_version ... because i had the prefix in there. so i deleted that prefix in the config file and then reran the upgrade and it all worked... except now i am getting this error message about the patch version, despite re-upgrading now a few times. and the page showing the right patch number.

thanks, MM
