I am hoping there is a really obvious answer here. I used the admin update centre to successfully update two live web sites. But when I try the same thing on my local dev installation which was the source of both the live web sites if fails. The message at the top of the page says " Update process has been completed successfully." but the orange "update to 1.5.1" button remains and the version (bottom right) stays at 1.2.6. I have repeated this many times but no luck.
I have tried the option of overwriting my v1.2.6 local install with the 1.5.1 zip. but I get errors reported starting with "Error: Unknown column 'language_id' in 'where clause'" so I guess there is some sql needing running.
If I try the update from my 1.2.6 overwritten with 1.5.1 copy it still tells me to update to 1.5.1 but when i try the message is "Update process has failed, please, try again."
I have switched error logging on but nothing is in there since march last year.
Cheers

You need to figure out how to set up your local web server properly, so the web process has access to modify/update files.
I guess Arastta can't write to the needed files and folders, they are being write protected for other than your locale user.
There's plenty of guides online about setting up a local server properly, so I'm not going to go in details on it. Don't even know what software you use anyway.

Thanks Rune. I must admit I was getting confused with Magento and thought I had set relevant permissions on some of the folders.
But it doesnt seem to be permissions. I have set full control for 'everyone' on the whole site but it still doesnt work, plus the apache user is me so has full control anyway.
I am not sure what you mean by 'properly' though. All I can do is follow the simple installation instructions. BTW my day job is web developer, I am sick of making sites that make other people rich and thought I'd give arastta a try at creating my own shop.
Thanks for your attention.
