SharePoint 2013 June 2019 CU updates build number

I just updated to the June 2019 CU (build no 15.0.5145.1000) onto our SharePoint 2013 test environment. All went well and the upgrade completed successfully without any issues. But when checking ‘Servers in the Farm’ from Central Admin the Configuration database version is shown as 15.0.15131.100 rather than 15.0.5145.1000. Is anything wrong?

For a UA 2019 Battle Smith artificer, does the Iron Defender’s attack bonus increase with the artificer’s proficiency bonus?

Does the to-hit bonus of the Iron Defender’s Bite increase when the proficiency of a Battle Smith Artificer (from the 2019 artificer UA) increases?

The starting bonus is +4 (which I assume is the Iron Defender’s STR modifier + proficiency bonus), but nothing in the subclass’ description indicates that the bonus changes.

Issue with Variations on SharePoint 2019

I have a site with 12 pages inside the /Pages document library and also 5 sub-sites and 7 lists.

I want to create variations for this site in English and French (French package language already installed).

But the issue is, after I create the labels, and then click on Create Hierarchy. This is the error occurring:

The Variations Create Hierarchies job failed with the following error message:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The variations are created but the pages, lists and sites are not propagated. Also, there is no routing managed even if the Variation Root page exists.

I deleted the labels and the variations sites, and then re-do the operation but the error is still occurring.

Please help.

What is the best open-source game engine in 2019? [on hold]

So, I want to make a 3D and 2D game. I need a suggestion on game engines for both 2D and 3D.

This is a small discovery project, to get myself into game development. I am able to create art assets and music assets, and able to code a little. I would prefer an engine that is capable in all aspects, and I will make an effort on the coding part of things.

I just don’t want to pick a shitty engine and regret it later and have the desire to port it to another engine.

SP 2019 site collection subsites and site settings clicks showing odd errors

I am working with SP on prem 2019. On a web app, I have classic site collection added as root. For some reason, I am seeing odd behavior, see summary below:

  1. Sometimes, upon accessing the root site url, it shows access required or sorry you don’t have access errors.

  2. There are three sub sites created, upon trying to access these sub sites, it shows access required message.

  3. When clicked on site settings for these sub sites, it shows sorry you dont have access error.

  4. When clicked on Navigation under site settings, it says “you dont have access” or 403 forbidden errors.

  5. Even when configuring terms for a term set in term store, for term driven url, when clicking on browse, it shows forbidden again.

I am farm admin, site collection admin and part of site owner group. Also I have a user policy spin up that gives me full control at the web app.

I checked the ULS logs as well, it seems that something is wrong with authentication, see some notes below from ULS logs.
