Upgrade from 1.7 to 1.8 doesn't think it is upgraded to 1.8
January 23, 2008, 10:55:27 pm
I am attempting to upgrade from 1.7 to 1.9 on a Drupal 5.5 server.  I run the upgrade process from 1.7 to 1.8 to 1.9 on my test site and everything went well.  The test site used databases that were that hour's copies of the production site.

When i tried it on my production site it did not go as planned.  In step 8 of the 1.7 to 1.8 update instructions, the Drupal Modules page says that the CiviCRM version is 1.8.  However, when I go to step 9 and view the CiviCRM Admin page, it looks like the 1.7 page and not the 1.8 page and says that I am running 1.7.10272.

In both cases I backed up the previous civicrm directory and deleted it, then untared the new release and ran the db update script.  I did not see any errors in the db update.

Any suggestions would be most helpful.  Thanks!

The Drupal Module page gets it’s number from the drupal/civicrm.module file, and the upgrade script from the civicrm-version.txt file – can you check whether the numbers match?

Alternatively, it can be a Drupal/Smarty page caching issue.

Both files list the upgraded version and not 1.7, so they seem to be ok on that score.

How can I clear the Drupal/Smarty page cache?

Thanks for the quick response.

About the Smarty cache I am not sure.

But for Drupal you can either go in to the database via phpMyAdmin and clear tables yourself, or if you have the DEVEL module installed, the DEVEL module creates a block that has a clear cache command. The DEVEL clear cache cleans a whole bunch of them.

Which tables should be cleared?

... the directoryCleanup=1 parameter clears the Smarty template cache

I enabled debugging and then executed:

http://community.green-rainbow.org/?q=civicrm/admin&reset=1&directoryCleanup=1

No change.  I then tried:

http://community.green-rainbow.org/index.php?q=civicrm/admin&reset=1&smartyDebug=1

Not unexpectedly, $localVersion is set to 1.7.10272

Do you perhaps have a "backed up" copy of the 1.7 codebase sitting in a directory below the drupal modules directory? Drupal will "pickup" any .module files under that tree.

I tarred the modules/civicrm directory to the same level as the directory that has drupal, then deleted the modules/civicrm directory and installed the newer civicrm directory.  I'll double check to be sure. 

Could the database update be wrong?  Is the version stored in a civicrm table?

The version is stored in a template - civicrm/templates/CRM/common/version.tpl
