I am using a Raspi which is up to date.
My pihole is on version 5.17.3 yet it says the latest is 5.18.2 and also says up-to-date.
The bottom of the admin screen says there's an update available.

Been using pihole for a few years now and never had this problem .

Please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:

pihole -d

or do it through the Web interface:

Thank you so much for replying :pray:t2:

Pi-hole is actually up to date.

You are running Pi-hole v5.18.2:

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Core version
[✓] Version: v5.18.2

And your versions file is showing the correct versions:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 325 Apr 25 13:49 /etc/pihole/versions
   CORE_BRANCH=master
   WEB_BRANCH=master
   FTL_BRANCH=master
   CORE_VERSION=v5.18.2
   WEB_VERSION=v5.21
   FTL_VERSION=v5.25.1
   GITHUB_CORE_VERSION=v5.18.2
   GITHUB_WEB_VERSION=v5.21
   GITHUB_FTL_VERSION=v5.25.1
   CORE_HASH=5490a6ea
   GITHUB_CORE_HASH=5490a6ea
   WEB_HASH=be05b0f6
   GITHUB_WEB_HASH=be05b0f6
   FTL_HASH=1c2257be
   GITHUB_FTL_HASH=1c2257be

Can you please try pihole -v again?
Do you still see the wrong versions? What versions do you see in the web interface footer?

Yes it is fixed now.
But in the first instance - the update did not work, as shown by the screenshot that I cut/paste into here.
I', very happy that it is fixed now. Thank you :pray:t2::sparkling_heart:

It was probably a temporary issue, but it was fixed before you generate the debug log.

Nothing to worry about.
