Experiencing a 401 Unauthorized Error During Update?

Strange warnings in Joomla Extensions Update was created by Norsk Jernbaneklubb
On our Joomla 3 sites these warnings have suddenly started to appear in Joomla Extensions Update. No problem, just a bit annoying.

For the extension ochSimpleFirewall 2.5.0 version 2.5.0 is available, but it requires at least PHP version 8.1 while your system only has 8.0.30

For the extension ochOpenGraph 1.8.9 version 1.8.9 is available, but it requires at least PHP version 8.1 while your system only has 8.0.30

These versions have been installed for some time now and are working just fine with PHP 8.0.
(And yes, we know PHP 8.0 is outdated, and we're working on migrating to J4, but that is not the point here.)

Regards,
Frode

Hi Frode,
last weekend I set the (generic) minimum requirements for my extensions to J4.4 and PHP 8.1 (lower versions are not supported anymore).
Thanks for pointing out this 'side-effect': didn't know there where warnings like that in the Joomla update manager (probably because I am always on the latest versions.

Anyway, for the older extension versions I have set the min. PHP back to 7.4 Newer version of the extensions will be PHP 8.1

So the messages should now not be showing anymore (updated minute ago)

Can you confirm?

Regards, Ruud

Hi Ruud,

Sorry, it's still there even though I've cleared cache in Joomla and webreader. Maybe some cache in the net somewhere?

Regards, Frode

Did the changes direct in my database, so forgot to clear cache, just cleared it.
If it is still giving these alerts, I'll investigate tomorrow.

Thanks for reporting back Frode,
good to have that solved. Will do some testing when time permits to see how this actually works / interfaces with Joomla Updater as these messages are new for me.
