[TYPO3-english] Update 4.2.6 problem with update wizard

Hi,

Check your typoconf/localconf.php file. Search for "compat_version". You 
may find that you have 2 entries one with single quotes and one with 
double quotes:

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']["compat_version"]
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['compat_version']

The entry with the double quotes doesn't get recognized by the update 
wizard, stays around and overrides the other value. Delete the entry 
with the double quotes and re-run the upgrade wizard.

This is due to a bug in the update wizard (which should be fixed, but 
hasn't yet ;-) ).

HTH
