Hello, after logging into Matomo analytics, I noticed the usual update message.
I logged into cpanel as usual to do the first part of the update, and then into Matomo analytics to complete it.
Matomo analytics displayed a message to update config.ini placing “updateTokenDetails” into a url under the general category but it did not show an example.
Has anyone seen or done this, so that earthlings can understand what to do?
Additionally, KPI Goals displays “Oops… there was a problem…”
I was running into a similar issue today, I was able to get it to work, but from what I can tell there might be a bug/typo in Matomo’s interface that makes this more difficult than it needs to be.
The info message says
updateTokenDetails GET parameter to the URL ([General] update_details_token in config.ini.php), orSo, what you are supposed to do is go into your matomo app’s config.ini.php file and add the setting update_details_token = "something" under the General header. Then when you are viewing the update info page, if you add the query param to the url updateDetailsToken=something (the value of the query param needs to match the value of the update_details_token setting), it will display more info on the update.
Now, here’s where the typo I mentioned comes in. Notice how the example I gave uses updateDetailsToken as the query param? That’s the correct value that matomo’s code is looking for, but the message that is hardcoded into their page template says updateTokenDetails, which is incorrect, if you try to use it the extra info won’t display.
