Shopp Database Upgrade Required loop

votes

After updating the Shopp plugin to version 1.3.3 in wordpress version 3.9.1, I activated the plugin, and when trying to access the plugins admin page, I get a page that saying:

Shopp has been updated!

Before you can use the new version of Shopp, your database needs to be upgraded.

Your storefront has been switched to maintenance mode until the database upgrade is completed.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to backup your database to prevent a loss of data! How do I backup? To upgrade, you simply need to reactivate Shopp:

Click the Continue… button below to deactivate Shopp

In the WordPress Plugins manager, click the Activate link for Shopp to reactivate and upgrade the Shopp database

I am running on Mamp 3.0

I follow the instructions, deactivate and activate the plugin, and I still recieve the same update required page.

I have verified that the db_version in my options database table matches the $wp_db_version in wp-includes/version.php. Ideas?

There was a problem where WP would use mysqli automatically when available. Adding this command to wp-config.php made it work again.

define('WP_USE_EXT_MYSQL',true);

RST is almost correct.

He said WP-config.sys but you really want to add it to wp-config.php

Add define('WP_USE_EXT_MYSQL',true); to your wp-config.php file in the root of you WordPress install.
