Upgrade Issue - Undefined constant "DS"

[ddjenkins]

System Info
Joomla: 5.2.0
PHP:8.2.25
SQL: 10.6.19-MariaDB
Jdownload: 4.0.42 Stable

I have version 4.0.42 Stable installed on my system, when I try to run the update to the latest version 4.0.45 stable the update fails with a error of Undefined constant "DS". See attached screenshot of the error message when updating.

Please advise how I resolve this.

Hi
The DS constant was originally used in early versions of Joomla.  DS stands for 'Directory Separator'.
Now 'DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR' is used.

For clarity have you recently, in last few weeks, updated from an old version of Joomla ?
Also did a Joomla! update fail and you repeated it?

To get more info turn on Joomla Debug - this is described in

Hi Colin,

Apologies for the delay. No I had no issues applying a Joomla update. Just updated site from 5.5.0 to 5.2.2 with no errors reported (Did that prior to re-trying jdownload update).

I switched on debug logging. To be honest I was expecting more info. Please see attached screenshots of the error
