I have a DNN 3.3.7 site that was hacked.  The hosting company can't explain what happened but now I get the database version doesn't match the assemblies version.  I think the database may but 3.0.13 based on the dnn.config file.  What is the best approach here, try an upgrade to the newest version or is their a way to just upgrade the database.  It is using sqlexpress.

The best bet if you can and don't know what happened would be to roll back to a last known good situation. If the version of the site is out of sync with the database that is often not a hack item, but something that may have been done by a user trying to upgrade.

I was finally able to get DB access and verified the version.  Then I edited the dnn.config to match.  All is better.
