Thanks Marco and serendipity, that 10.20 update worked great on 2 desktops and a laptop for us in US.

Hi Marco,

Release 10.40 is out. Check the first post for more info.

I get the following error upon triggering "Check for Updates"

With 10.20 (obviously I'd missed 10.30 as I see now) everything (update to 11.90 from today) works fine.

What does the German string mean?

EDIT: I guess it means that system can't find the requested file. Try raising, in the ini file, the Delay to some higher value.

No, if you upgrade from 10.30 then you will get this error because back then there was no command getpathcomponent.
@Marco: I PMed you earlier that we should have an assert command in the script to make sure that users upgrading have the minimum version.
edit- something like this:

Code: Select all

  $minimum = "11.40.0202"; 
  $compatible = (compare(<xyver>, $minimum, v) == -1) ? 0 : 1; 
  assert ($compatible), "This script needs XYplorer version $minimum or higher.", 1;

[Marco]

He is not upgrading from XY 10.30, he said he missed SU 10.30.
Anyway, re the version check, what should be the minimum version?

[serendipity]

Sorry, read that tad too fast.
I think getpathcomponent command came in version 11.40.0202.

[Marco]

But we don't use getpathcomponent...

[Filehero]

Seems I got confused you by confusing myself.

If I remember correctly my last script version before updating to 10.40 was 10.20. The XY version I got the error with script version 10.40 was v11.80.011.

This is my SimpleUpdater.ini:

Code: Select all

, i need a coffee now.

[Marco]

@Filehero, can you reproduce consistently the error? If so, raising the delay to 2500 solves the problem?

[Filehero]

Hi Marco,

yes it's absolutely reproducible. And tweaking the delay param does not change it, neither raising up 2500 nor cranking up to 5000. However, immediately reverting to the previous script version does the trick. Strange.

Serendipity, do you have any clue?
