Movable Type Knowledge Base: You Do Not Seem To Be Running The MySQL Version. Exiting...

Question

When running an upgrade script, I see the message You do not seem to be running the MySQL version. Exiting....

Answer

Note: The information in this article applies only to versions below 3.2.

Certain upgrade scripts only need to be run if you are using the MySQL version of Movable Type. If you see this message, and you are not using MySQL for your database, it is safe to disregard the warning and continue to the next upgrade script.

If you are using MySQL, make sure you've not inadvertently overwritten your original mt.cfg file when updating the Movable Type files on your server. If so, you may need to recreate this file with the correct settings for MySQL.
