Thread: Logical comparison on startup pgadmin4

Each time I run pgadmin4 I run a git pull to get latest. Then launch from web browser at 5050, no problem.

However a message pops up to say that I am running this version but the current is something else. For example:

"You are currently running version 1.0-beta2.1 of pgAdmin 4, however the current version is 1.0-beta2. Please click here for more information."

It looks like a check is happening to remind me to upgrade, but in this case the upgrade has already happened. It looks like maybe a comparison operator is not quite right for version/subversion or am I reading incorrectly?

The code just looks for a mis-match, as the version suffix is an
arbitrary string. That's the downside of using GIT code which may have
a different version than the update service knows about.

You can disable the version check in your config file to avoid the issue.
