Version Tag missing from .info.yml file

Execute composer show drupal/webform and report back with what it says in the source field.

The packaged release contains:

# Information added by Drupal.org packaging script on 2024-07-19
version: '6.2.7'
project: 'webform'
datestamp: 1721425240

If that is missing you probably have a Git checkout of the project instead.

I just installed drupal/webform on a site and I verified the version information is in its info file. So whatever is happening on that site, it isn't a bug in Webform module. To be absolutely clear I am talking about webform.info.yml which is in the root directory of this module.

It might be good to know the config.preferred-install config value that is in composer.json. But all-in-all I don't think this is a Webform issue.

If the version is not in webform.info.yml, that suggests that you have a Git repo instead of a release. When I install from Composer, I see the version. The repo was probably installed manually or there is something that needs to be changed in your Composer setup. I doubt there is a Webform issue here. Please re-open if you need more help.

For those that may come across this issue, to repair:
composer clearcache
composer reinstall drupal/webform
worked for me.

If that does not work, try
composer reinstall drupal/webform --prefer-dist.

My guess is that the packaging script of drupal.org was messed up at some point, but that is only a conjecture. But this worked, no changes to composer.json nor composer.lock.
