**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 3.1.0  
My PHP version is: 7.3.20  
My MariaDB version is : 10.5

**Your problem**  
My problem is: when running migrate I’m getting a warning saying my MariaDB server is too old

```
# php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

Your database version (5.5.5-10.1.35-MariaDB) does not support generated columns. Upgrade at least to 10.2.6 and update `db_server_version` accordingly to get the speed improvements.

```

**But my MariaDB server is version 10.5:**

```
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 375048
Server version: 10.5.5-MariaDB MariaDB Server

Copyright (c) 2000, 2018, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others.

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.

MariaDB [(none)]>

```

These errors are showing in the log: no related errors in the log

Steps I have tried to fix the problem: no clue where to start to fix this problem. Both my MariaDB client and server are version 10.5

```
# yum list installed | grep -i maria
MariaDB-client.x86_64 10.5.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb
MariaDB-common.x86_64 10.5.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb
MariaDB-compat.x86_64 10.5.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb
MariaDB-server.x86_64 10.5.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb
MariaDB-shared.x86_64 10.5.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb
galera-4.x86_64 26.4.5-1.el7.centos @mariadb

```

So must be a bug of some sort

I think I once experienced something similar. IIRC it had something to do with the mysql-connector used by PHP (mysqli in my case) seemingly pointing to an old version or something like that. What does `phpinfo();` show about mysql/mysqli?

Thanks for your suggestion.

I looked at the phpinfo() and there’s nothing about the version numbers 5.5.5 and 10.1.35 or something near that.

Here’s the report about mysqli:
