AmiUpdate 2.50

Quote:

The new version 2.52 was not displayed via AmiUpdate 2.51, I downloaded it from the AmiUpdate website and installed it.

AmiUpdate 2.52 now works very well again. The prefs settings can be set and saved. "Start iconified (recommended)" via AmiDock works

Many thanks for the quick troubleshooting.

works now, but the link to the release notes of v2.52 does not.

And the update is not available via AmiUpdate itself.

@Rigo

Updated to 2.52 and working fine, no app_lib requester.

Ahhh, okay! I see.
After having manually installed version 2.52, you have again access to the amiupdate server.

@Rigo

Thanks for the update.

I can confirm the link to the release notes on the website does not work.

I also noticed the "Updates" prefs have the same version number but a different MD5-checksum.

It's sad your motivation is low, but it's fully understandable.

Thank You for continuing development and gifting us with your spare time. Thank you also for bearing the burden of the server costs all by yourself.

@Rigo

Thank you very much for the new version. AmiUpdate 2.51 did not show the 2.52 update, so I downloaded the full 2.52 archive and installed that.

As others already said, 2.52 now works flawlessly. No more error messages, and it also showed two additional updates that I never saw with 2.49, 2.50 or 2.51.

Thanks again for your great work!

@Rigo

i had the 2.49 version on my pegasos and couldn't 'see' anything newer. i download v2.52 from your page, use the installer and it works fine. it even found the latest dopus update!

thanks!

@Rigo

Another error has crept in, namely when you start the search via the prefs there are also error messages. Very few people will do this, but the bug is there.




Is there a way to donate to their work? PayPal would be ideal...

@Rigo

Started up 2.51 on my X1000 and it offered the update to 2.51. After selecting Yes, downloading and rebooting, 2.52 works just fine again with AmiDock.

Thanks for all your good work with this,

Amiupdate 2.52 (current latest version)
If you go in preferences and than verify now, you got same errors than public 2.49 version.
Amiupdate now finds two updates, Dopus and another but once selected do not install any update for real.
Once you load a new scan same updates are found.

@Rigo
what about Codebench? Are you planning to release new version in a short time?

Installed last version 2.52 and it works perfect. Thank you on the update!

Right, fixed the last of the issues (I hope).

2.53 is available now.

For those that are not seeing the update in the list, please enable the "Add extra info to log" menu, and check the AU.log in RAM: after a scan. Search for "AmiUpdate", and the log /should/ tell you why it feels this update is not required.

I can't understand why some see it, and some don't. More info needed, I'm afraid.

With regard to the MD5 sums changing, most likely that's because I compile everything cleanly prior to release just to be on the safe side, and there may be some file changed that doesn't affect the program, but may be enough to alter the MD5 sum. Better it works, than checksums being different, no? Basically if it has the same version number, it's functionally the same.

As a side-note: a last minute application interface conflict was found, so I've just released Update prefs 53.17 as well.

@nbache

The whole bug tracker definitely needs some serious love but that's a job for another time, unfortunately.

That said, do you not see the "My Bugs" button at the top once logged in?

I assume by the server names, you are using an older version of AmiUpdate?

Rather than change all your settings around, download the latest archive from here and install it manually.

This is most likely a problem caused by the redirection issues surrounding the subdomains and forwarding. 2.52 cures this internally.

Thanks for pointing it out!

I've also been unable to update AmiUpdate.

When I run my current version (2.49) it doesn't detect any updates.

I downloaded the version you linked above, but when I try and run the installer, it stops:

"COPYFILES: Couldn't copy file 'DockStrip' in line 116.

DOS Error Type: Unable to access a file or drawer -- object in use"

I tried manually copying across AmiUpdate from the archive, but when I run it it crashes.

Also perplexed by update library. Both the version I have and the version in the archive have the same version string 53.19 but different dates and differnt file sizes.

@daveyw

Did you have AmiUpdate running when you tried to update it?
You need to close that down before reinstalling with the latest downloaded version.
It will then be able to update itself while running as was the case previously.

Cheers

Hello,
I have installed Amiupdate 2.52 but a scan does not show V2.53.
Please can you provide a link to download Amiupdate 2.53
Many thanks
