version check showing old version?

I was running a tail -f on my /var/log/messages file, and watching it when I started ZM (via web). I noticed the version check was showing the old version:

Code: Select all

Feb 27 12:19:46 Crimson zmupdate[12755]: INF [Checking for updates]
Feb 27 12:19:47 Crimson zmupdate[12755]: INF [Got version: '1.23.3']

This is strange as I used to be running exactly version 1.23.3, but I have since completely dropped and recreated the database and installed 1.24, in fact I am running 1.24.1 according to the web console:

Code: Select all

Fri 27th Feb, 12:20pm   ZoneMinder Console - Running - v1.24.1   Load: 1.45 / Disk: 37%

Heh heh... Uh, 1.24 was kind of "rushed out the door" so I'm sure Phil will be chasing these little "gotcha's" for some time to come yet. You may not want to believe everything you see for a while.

Your just fine. Phils update server is still reporting 1.23.3 as the latest release and this is what your seeing in the logs. No big deal or anything to worry about.

I usually leave updating the version reported by the version check for at least a couple of weeks in case there are major errors with a new release and I don't want to be swamped by hundreds of posts all reporting the same thing
