Description mancinelli_jared 2010-06-27 02:14:44 UTC 
I am currently running OpenOffice.org on a Dell Inspiron laptop with Windows 7
64-bit as my operating system.  I know that Ooo v. 3.2.1 has recently been
released, but for some reason, when I select "Check for Updates" from the Help
menu, it gives me the message that "OpenOffice.org 3.2 is up to date", even
though I know this is incorrect.  I really do not want to reinstall Ooo.  What
can I do to fix this?

Seems to be reproducible with "Ooo-Dev 3.3 multilingual version German UI WIN
XP: [DEV300m83 (Build 9511)]"! I get 3.2.0 as "state of the art", please see
attached screenshots.

We had a similar problem in Issue 98546. Can't we have an automatic function for
update service?

These reports all apply to OpenOffice.org versions prior to Apache OpenOffice 3.4.

Currently, with Apache OpenOffice 4.x releases, there are lags between when a new version is available and when the check for updates (manual or automatic) reports there is a new version available.  The lag is generally a few days (usually not more than one week).  This report is not about that.

I am resolving this report as obsolete.  Any defects identified in current procedures and messages for handling update availability with AOO 4.x and beyond should be reported as new incidents.
