Description
The EM gives this error message under TYPO3 6.2 beta1:
Your TYPO3 version is higher than allowed. You can use TYPO3 versions 6.0.0 - 6.0.99
This is misleading. Who forbids me to use TYPO3 6.2?
You can get this error message, when you install an extension which has the file ext_emconf.php which has set the limit of TYPO3 to 6.0.99.
'constraints' => array(
'depends' => array(
'php' => '5.2.5-5.3.99',
'typo3' => '6.0.0-6.0.99',
),
- Category set to Extension Manager
Well this is sometimes annoying when you want to use extension that is compatible with current T3 version but author set max version to lower number. But for new users this is good as such extensions (not tested by authors with latest T3 version) might break whole system if they are not compatible.
- Target version set to 6.2.0
I have the same issue. but with a "pure" installation of TYPO3 6.2b1. All bundled extensions can not activated in this version (e.g. Scheduler, Database Abstraction Layer,...). Or is this functionality deactivated during the beta?
When i try to activate "scheduler (Version 6.2.0)" i become this MSG: ""You TYPO3 version is lower than necessary. You need at least TYPO3 Verison 6.2.0"
@Mirko Brunner:
Most extensions are not running under TYPO3 6.2 beta1. See the topic "addPItoST43 broken under TYPO3 6.2beta1" of the Developer list.
Open another issue. This issue is meant for the nonsense of the message. The error message does not tell that the extension cannot be installed. Instead it only tells that the user shall quit his running TYPO3 6.2.
@Franz Koch:
Agree, this is a misleading message. A message here should tell what the real problem is, and also give you the opportunity to install the extension even if the requirements for TYPO3 version isn't met.
