Moodle stuck trying to revert the HotPot module as part of upgrade

Hi there,

I'm upgrading a Moodle site  (in DEV),  from 3.3.9 to 3.6 to 3.9.1. I've just completed the Moodle 3.6 upgrade, but I am stuck at the plugins screen as Moodle tries to revert the HotPot plugins to an old version for some reason. I can't seem to get away from this screen - it redirects back here. Upgrading the database results in the cannotdowngrade error code. We are actively using this plugin, so deleting then installing the plugin isn't ideal, as it will also delete all instances of the plugin across the site. How do I fix this?

Hi,

How were you able to 'add' the subfolder 'hotpot' from the server to the zip file?  The contents of the zip file already has a 'hotpot' folder in it?  And the 'hotpot' folder from the server would be the old version, right?  And the zip file has the 'newer' version?

Thanks.

Hi Matt,

After some further analysis, I noticed that the 'main' Hotpot plugin has a newer version in the zip file, but 'sub-plugins' or subfolders that seem to be further plugins (above) have their versions old (in their version.php files) that's why update fails. So in order to 'force' the system to install them along with the main Hotpot zip file, I just manually modified their version.php information and replaced them with anything higher than currently installed version - i.e. 2014061824.

Regards,
Cris
