Two of the plugins say there’s an update, when I try to update automatically I get an error saying the most up to date version is already installed…

No that was not these nor was it Tal…
what is the version listed for what you have?
Came searching for answers to this issue only to discovered that I have had it before… without even remembering!
I’m having the same problem again… not sure why. I have three plugins and my theme saying there’s an update but they are all actually apparently already up to date – any ideas what could be causing my setup to not recognise the latest version is already installed? I notice all say version with just #.# not #.#.#

Having taken a look at my installed PM plugin file it appears I do NOT have the latest version installed

confused… where do you see #’s?
but when you update, it doesnt actually update?
The copy/paste in the first post was from the WP upgrades page. I run the updates and I get those errors. I thought I was on the most recent version but it appears that the update fails.
I can get around the issue by deactivting/deleting the plugin and uploading/installing the new version but obviously that’s a pain
I was referring to the actual # signs you used… but think it was not just a generic way of saying some version…
we have only had one other user with similar problem… and couldnt get close enough to even debug it…
and you dont have multiple versions, right? an extra one with a number after the name?
the info I posted was from the sp-pm-plugin.php file where I looked to see what version was installed just to confirm.
No, I definitely have no duplicates
UPDATE: This problem is linked to the total cache plugin, if I disable that plugin and run the updates it works fine.
really? so now w3tc is caching admin pages?? wow, not cool… thanks for the tip!
I don’t know WHAT it’s doing… just that when it’s running, I can’t update my SP plugins!
okay… that is just interesting… I can find zero benefit in caching the admin pages… but as I said, appreciate the info… more to go on and new questions for the occasional upgrade issues…
Just had the same problem, running WordPress 3.9.1, SP Version 5.4.2, three SP plugin updates notified, when run the updater says ‘error, plugins at the latest version’ but still notifies updates needed.
De-activated W3 Total Cache and update works perfectly.
Re-activated W3 Total Cache and all plugins reported up to date.
yeah, for some reason, on some installs, the caching plugins are inserting its advertising comment for itself into the ajax response… it normally outputs the advertising comment at the end of each page, so its likely being to greedy and corrupting the ajax response too… really sloppy when its doing it in the admin too…
