I am reposting this here because I still need a answer.

Posted: Wed, 2015-12-16 10:04 We have updated a Joomla site.. from 1.5x to 3.4.6. Now I need to let Virtualmin know... I thought I could go to /etc/webmin/virtual-server/scriptlog/0001customer/ edit the file that had the Joomla number. the problem is the that must not be correct because it gets over written.. So how do I let the system know we updated the program.. Thanks Don PS: I stopped Virtualmin, updated the scriptlog, restarted virtualmin, same issues.. keeps going back old one.

Editing the version number in the scriptlog/domain-id/script-id directory should do what you want. If not, make sure you have the correct domain ID.

Can you post the full contents of the file under the scriptlog directory that you changed?

------- this is the was... ---------------------

opts_phpver=5.4 opts_db=mysql_slenderwrapinc_joomla opts_dir=/home/slenderwrapinc/www partial= desc=Under www url=http://slenderwrapinc.com/ user=slenderwrapinc opts_joomla_secret= pass=andib version=1.6.6 name=joomla opts_sample=0 opts_path=/ opts_lang=en opts_newdb=1 deleted=0 time=1451244963

----------- I change it to this.. --------- opts_phpver=5.4 opts_db=mysql_slenderwrapinc_joomla opts_dir=/home/slenderwrapinc/www partial= desc=Under www url=http://slenderwrapinc.com/ user=slenderwrapinc opts_joomla_secret= pass=andib version=3.4.8 name=joomla opts_sample=0 opts_path=/ opts_lang=en opts_newdb=1 deleted=0

---------------------- Note: I also remove the time stamp ---------------

After checking the script summary, it is back with a new time stamp...

opts_phpver=5.4 opts_db=mysql_slenderwrapinc_joomla opts_dir=/home/slenderwrapinc/www partial= desc=Under www url=http://slenderwrapinc.com/ user=slenderwrapinc opts_joomla_secret= pass=andib version=1.6.6 name=joomla opts_sample=0 opts_path=/ opts_lang=en opts_newdb=1 deleted=0

time=1451365123

The site is 3.4.8 ... I know, just can't convince Virtualmin..

Ok, I think I see the issue - for Joomla, Virtualmin attempts to determine the actual version based on the following files under the install dir :

libraries/joomla/version.php
includes/version.php
libraries/cms/version/version.php

specifically, it looks for the RELEASE and DEV_LEVEL lines.

Great. I'm curious why those files didn't get updated when you manually upgraded Joomla though?

Was looking around as I have a similar issue.
I would suggest the following files be looked at in a Joomla installation:
(1) ./administrator/manifests/files/joomla.xml --> 3.6.2
(2) ./language/en-GB/install.xml --> 3.6.2

I believe the 2nd one is better.
