" You must be on the latest v3.x to update across major versions.
Run “ghost update v3” to get the latest v3.x version, then run “ghost update” to get to v4. "

Yes, this is exactly what you need to do to update to Ghost Version 4… it is telling you…

… otherwise I’m not sure what you’re asking … this is what it says for everyone …

The latest 3.x version is 3.42.4, you need to be on that version before you can upgrade to the latest 4.x version.

The error is explaining you need to run ghost update v3 before ghost update. If you’re unable to run ghost update v3 please share the error message you are seeing when you run it.
