Dashboard 1.6.6 fails on job detail and actions against a pg-boss 12.29 (schema v39) database

[La-toile-cosmique]

Description

@pg-boss/dashboard bundles its own copy of pg-boss, currently 12.28.x (schema 38). When the target database has been migrated to schema v39 by an application running pg-boss 12.29.0, every dashboard route that goes through the internal PgBoss instance fails with:

pg-boss database requires migrations

Affected: job detail pages ("Failed to load job"), and all actions (send, retry, cancel, schedule, unschedule). The list/browse pages still work since they use the dashboard's own SQL pool.

Root cause

async check() {
  if (!await this.isInstalled()) throw new Error("pg-boss is not installed");
  if (schemaVersion !== await this.schemaVersion()) throw new Error("pg-boss database requires migrations");
}

The strict !== rejects a database schema that is newer than the bundled pg-boss.

• Node.js 24.x, PostgreSQL 15

Thank you
