What version of Providence

carlosTF

I have supposedly installed Version 2.0.3 of Providence (release date January 10th, 2025).
How can we tell what version I'm running? According to /app/version.php:

<?php
 	# CollectiveAccess version number; don't change
	define('__CollectiveAccess__', '2.0');

	# Schema revision
	define('__CollectiveAccess_Schema_Rev__', 199);

	# Release type
	define('__CollectiveAccess_Release_Type__', 'GIT');

Thanks.

The version is noted on the tar or zip file you downloaded. Adding a minor version entry in this file is a good idea, which we'll do in the coming days.

seth with git pullthere's no tar/zip file in play. Adding the version in a file will be fine, thanks.

Seth, what about updating to 2.0.3 from 1.7.16 rev 158?
I tried the automatic updated using caUtils update-from-1-7, but I received an error in step 3...
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught DatabaseException: 1074 in /var/www/html/providence/app/lib/DB/mysqli.php:358
Stack trace:

#7 /var/www/html/providence/support/bin/caUtils(171): CLIUtils::update_from_1_7()

Should I manually update the db?

What version of MySQL are you running? I'm guessing it's old? You will need to use at least MySQL 8.
