Think I might have posted this in the wrong thread before so I repost here. Hope that´s ok:
Hi!
Im afraid I´ve slipped a bit with my updates.
Joomla is updated to 3.9.3
And I ran VM updates through the joomla extension auto updates (both main update and AIO). Think it was 3.4 version. I got error messge on the VM update but not the AIO. But now joomla doesn´t flag for any available updates, but in VM it states that VM is running 3.2.12 which seems really old.
Can this be correct? Can I check this in some other wy?
If I need to update, can I run latest VM update manually (the zipfilea through extension update)?
Or do I have to update in steps?
Lots of questions :-), I know. But greatful for any advice!
You can check extension versions in Joomla/extenstions/manage/manage
You can install updates using the standard Joomla installer - with the new xxx_package_or_extract.zip you can simply drop the whole package into the upload/installer and it will update VM, aio (and TCPDF if necessary).

Of course, test all updates on a copy of the site first.
Thanks Kelvyn!
So no need to do the update in steps since I seem to be running quite an old VM?
Should update OK. But as I stated before - test before updating the live site.
Upgradet and everything seems to run ok! The issue was that Joomla was setup for mysql database. Reading the error message a bit closer (the fine print...) this prompted to switch to MySQLi :-).
Change the Joomla config and then the update ran smoothly.
