Fetch extension version from ext_emconf.php if composer.json does not contain version property
Added by Peter Niederlag about 9 years ago.
Updated over 6 years ago.
Description
Composer itself suggests to not set the version property inside composer.json as it can be calculated from vcs branch/tag properties.
Currently this causes troubles inside of 6.2.x as the version from ext_emconf.php is ignored if a composer.json is present.
The concrete requirements to trigger the bug need more information, as it might not happen in all cases.
First requirement of course is a real composer based installation (composer install in root directory)
Also it might happen only when extension are analyzed by a dependency.
Unfortunatly while preparing the patch I forgot to be more precise on the setup to trigger it.

Happened here too. We have some internal extensions which are installed with composer/installers, they have a version field in ext_emconf.php but not in composer.json. It's very unconventional to require a version field in the composer.json
And the exceptions only happens, if a local extensions has a depends constraint in his ext_emconf.php to such a extension which has a composer.json

I cannot reproduce this any more. Can you give more information how to reproduce it? Also the exception code would already help to tackle this issue.
- Target version changed from 7.3 (Packages) to 7.4 (Backend)
It is about exception code 1395614959 thrown in ExtensionManagementUtility::getExtensionVersion()
Steps to reproduce:
- Extension "a" has a composer.json without version property, is in the system and activated
- Extension "b" is in the system but inactive and has a dependency to extension "a"
- Activate Extension "b" in the extension manager
