AmiUpdate issue

Posted on: 2019/4/24 20:21 #1

Just popping in

After an update scan, lzma_lib-53.7.lha appeared. An endless loop stuck the process, while trying to update the file :

Quote:

..and so on...

I got the file with Odyssey fom the web and ran the AutoInstall script.

Is it something that is supposed to happen with AmiUpdate and github?

Not too shy to talk

Hey Cass,

You really shouldn't run the "AutoInstall" script in the
root of the archive. Those scripts are typically only
meant for AmiUpdate to run when updating a previous
version.

Instead, there's an "Install" script within the
"lzma_lib.53.7" directory which is the one meant for a
user's first, "manual" install.

If there's a problem with the standard "Install" script,
I'd suggest getting in touch Chris Young (the porter).

Good luck!
