Latest version of KeePassRPC but Keepass keeps asking to update

https://keefox.org/upgrade

In particular, check that you have the correct file in the correct folder and restart KeePass and Firefox.

Please also see this standard message below so that anyone interested can understand if no activity occurs until next year and why at that time we may close the issue.

First, please see http://keefox.org/news/detail/2017/09/19/introducing-kee-20

The issues that affect Kee 2.0 will be different to KeeFox 1.7 and even where the same issues affect both versions, the cause will usually be different.

This issue will not be addressed here unless it is specific to Thunderbird or a serious problem affecting Firefox 52 ESR. Please get in touch privately if you find a security flaw regardless of which Mozilla application it affects to ensure a process of responsible disclosure can be followed.

If the issue is still relevant in Kee 2.0 please raise an issue in the new repository. For issues relating to the web browser add-on, or when you are not sure, please use https://github.com/kee-org/browser-addon/issues. For issues that affect the KeePass plugin (KeePassRPC) please use https://github.com/kee-org/keepassrpc/issues

I appreciate this might be disappointing for some people watching tickets involving things you feel would be great improvements or fix irritating bugs and limitations with KeeFox 1.x but I hope you'll understand that it's not wise to spend time on a version of the add-on which will cease to function in the latest version of Firefox in a month.

If you want to express an opinion or emotion relating to this comment, please use the "reaction" buttons rather than writing a new comment if possible - that will make it easier to tidy things up in 2018 so we can spend more time improving KeeFox instead of managing project admin.

If you'd like to comment or ask about the more general migration plan and reasoning for Kee 2.0, please join in the discussion at kee-org/browser-addon#1 if there is no more specific issue or forum for discussion.

Thanks,
Chris

Ok, this was at least partly my own fault. Instead of replacing the old KeePassRPC.plgx with the new one, I just renamed the old one and added the new one. Thus, both were found and compiled.
My suggestion would be to

• Make that more clear in the documentation
• Handle the case when the same plugin exists in multiple versions at the same time. But this is perhaps more a keepass issue

I am closing this nevertheless since the original issue is solved
