Updatenotification bar doesn't show up

ChrizZz

Hey guys,

I am struggling with the default module “updatenotification”. It doesn’t show the notification bar if there is an update for MM or one of the modules.

The mm-out.log shows:

[08.02.2021 18:55.19.771] [LOG]   Initializing new module helper ...
[08.02.2021 18:55.19.773] [LOG]   Module helper loaded: updatenotification
[08.02.2021 18:55.24.000] [LOG]   Connecting socket for: updatenotification

There aren’t any log entries in mm-error.log

My config has these lines for the module:

{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar",
			classes: "always"
},

I tried it without the classes line too.

My MM version is 2.14.0

//e: I used the “Troubleshooting” space and not the one in modules because I thought default modules would fit to this space better.

@chrizzz the base has not been updated since 1/1/2021

u would have to install outside modules and know that it was updated AFTER you installed it

@sdetweil sorry Sam, I think I don’t get your answer.

@chrizzz there has been no update of mm. only happens once every quarter.

also reports on modules not part of mm, but if u install a module, there would be no notification until that module was updated

@sdetweil but I have modules with available updates and the update notification module doesn’t work for a few months. I did my last MM update without been notified. I did it just because it was weird to have such a long time without the update notification

@chrizzz do a git --version on the commandine

@sdetweil

git version 2.20.1

It works again. I think it was my mistake in the config based on the classes setting or compared with the carousel module.
