Hi Robert and Kristina

We have testing mahara problem I would say, as it looks like we are faster than development - haha. Can you please move to GitHub as fast as possible as it is a real headache to use the downloads from launchpad and the git. It would be much easier to update and maintain sites if mahara could be upgraded by git. This also would mean to have always the newest version available on git.

We checked out 21.04_STABLE which results in the following error and same still happens if we checkout Master.

Database version of Mahara 21.04.2testing (2021042709) is newer than files version 21.04.2testing (2021042708). Please make sure you have the correct Mahara files in place.

It would be much easier when the mahara htdocs folder itself would be a git repository - like it is at Wordpress, Moodle, HumHub etc.
With all those other files and folders like docker etc. which are not needed when you run no docker the actual download blows up constantly with unnecessary stuff. Thanks. 

Well, and my question right now is if we safely can change the date in the database - or where else should we change it to maintain the most actual version. What is the best place to do so when we are using git ourselves for our projects too?

Hi Andi

The official git repository for the Mahara project is https://git.mahara.org/mahara/mahara - I'd advise you pull from that repository via git if you are wanting the most up to date version.

Cheers

Robert

Nice place but can't get it working

Hi Andi,

Please use the HTTPS version instead of the SSH version. SSH only works for people who have an account on git.mahara.org, which at the moment is only possible for Mahara core project members: 

git clone https://git.mahara.org/mahara/mahara.git

Thank you
Kristina
