• OS Version: win 10
• vsce Version:1.7.0

When i run vsce publish, it suggest Successfully published.However, the extension version is not updated correctly, but the last update time is right.

What do you mean with the last update time? Can you show me a screenshot?

@joaomoreno is the version information updated in the json? We pick up the version information directly from there as far as I know. We don't enforce that the version has to be different during the publish.

I've updated the vsersion to 0.1.5 in package.json
screenshoot

@Lonefy Could you let us know what the latest version number was that you tried to update to? Is it 0.1.32? I'll have someone look it up on our end.

[Lonefy]

@hamenon i think I've got your point.i tried to update it to 0.1.5 which seems to be a lower version num than 0.1.31.

[joaomoreno]

So, using a number _greater_ than 0.1.31 works?

[Lonefy]

@joaomoreno yeah, it works. Sorry for this simple issue. :)

[hamenon]

@Lonefy @joaomoreno Glad to hear it's working. Just an FYI though, the number doesn't necessarily have to be _greater_ it's just that it has to be _unique_. In this case it looks like a version with number 0.1.5 already existed. Though it is always better to increment version number as it's easier to keep track.

Sorry quick update, seems we did add a check recently to disallow moving to a lower version number recently. So updating to a _greater_ version number is required.
