AIR auto update error, and question about POST parameters

Hello,
I'm getting a Download Failed error in the AIR autoupdating process;
There was an error downloading the update. Error# 16822
I recall this working once, the very first time that I tried it.
My app.xml file contains this line:
    <version>12</version>
and my update.xml file contains:
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/1.0">
  <version>12</version>
  <url>http:/players.biemedia.com/ooyala/Composer/Composer.air</url>
  <description>12 - Bug fixes and prepopulating defaults for player creation screen</description>
</update>
Pasting the URL into a browser works.
However, this stuffresides on cloudfront.  in the past i have noticed that if something tries to send post parameters along with the request, cloudfront will deny the request.  Is it possible that the AIR app is sending POST parameters when hitting the download URL, and could this behavior be new in the last 6 months or so?
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Gerry

You xml schema for update descriptor.xml in  server should look similar to this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5">

</update>
Note xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5"
and versionNumber instead of version
Also make similar changes in appxml version field (in Burrito its by default versionNumber )
No 2>
if u are using code to display veesion number make sure it should look like:
var appXML:XML = NativeApplication.nativeApplication.applicationDescriptor;
var ns:Namespace = appXML.namespace();
pnlMain.title=appXML.ns::name+" v "+appXML.ns::versionNumber
Thats it...!

  • Air Auto Update Error -- Flash Builder Burrito.

    This is my first attempt at this, so I may be missing something simple.
    I'm not having any luck getting an Air app to automatically update.
    If I manually go to  http://localhost/air1/air1.air and redownload the file I will get a popup that asks if I want to update the app, but when I say ok I get this error.
    "There was an error checking for updates. Error# 16816"
    I haven't found a reason yet,

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • * Buying Vado HD - 1st or 2nd gen? and question about pricing *

    Hi.
    I want to buy the Vado HD. I'm deliberating between the st and the 2nd gen. Can you help me with that?
    Second question, how come the 2nd gen (that supposed to be better and newer) costs less than the st gen?! (99$ for the 2nd gen and 229$ for the st gen).
    Thanks,
    Adam

    CRe: * Buying Vado HD - st or 2nd gen? and question about pricing *# To me the Vado Rev3 seems to be trying to get the same feature set as a digial Camera with HD recording capabilty....except the cameras take better stills. I have the below Canon and the Vado HD Rev.
    http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-SD780IS2--Stabilized-Black/dp/B00SER47Y
    We don't use the vado anymore since the camera is always with us.
    Factor into the price of the Canon also purchasing a highspeed 6GB sd card.
    if you are really sold on a Vado...look at the comparison here:
    http://www.myvado.com/products/comparison.aspx
    Note how they reduced the recording time of the new models to only 4gb instead of 8gb.....however, the newer units nati'vely record to MP4 which is a little easier on some software programs than the AVI container.

  • Question about parsing parameters through url

    Hello,
    I have some questions about parsing parameters through a url.
    What I want to build is a page with some text fields and maybe one drop down list. After user enter values into the text fields and select one option in the drop down list, then press the submit button, a report will be opened, which according to the parameters parsed.
    These were what I have done:
    1. create a blank page and a region
    2. create one text field in the region, the name is FIRSTNAME
    3. create one hidden items FN, of which the source value is item FIRSTNAME
    4. create a process. the type is "Set Preference to value of Item" which set PN with the value of FIRSTNAME when the page submitted
    5. create a button "Submit Page and Redirect to URL", in the URL I entered:
    http://dianti.local.net:9704/xmlpserver/~shichao/GuestFolder/orderdetail/orderdetail.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2F~shichao%2FGuestFolder%2Forderdetail%2Forderdetail.xdo&FIRSTNAME=&FN.&_xt=orderdetail&_xf=pdf&_xmode=4
    My problem is: it seems working for the first time after I entered a value in the FIRSTNAME text field and press submit button, but when I come back to the page (the report was opened in the same page, wondering how to open it in a new window?), the value is saved in the text field and after I enter another value and submit the page again. It still parse the old value to the report. The value of the parameter doesn't change.
    What's the reason? and is this the correct way to build what I want?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Shichao

    Hi Scott,
    Thank you again for the help.
    But this didn't answer my question exactly. I have tested what you created and the problem remains. When I first time enter a value in the text field and press the button, it goes to page 2, but the parameter didn't parsed. When I go back to page 1 and then click the button again. After that I can see the value I parsed on page 2. Same thing happens when I try to enter a new value. So which means the button has to been pressed twice to parse the parameter.
    Due to the limitation of my knowledge of Apex. I don't know how to fix it. Could you please help me again and hope you understand what the problem is. Thank you very much.

  • Cloud Update: Error and auto unistall

    Hi Team,
    My PC wanted to do an update this morning for the cloud platform (Desktop). I said OK. It went through the update process and at the end it came up with an error. I didn't have time to chase this so I went cancel.
    Cloud desktop has now looks to have disappeared and uninstalled its self!
    Any thoughts

    Hello. There is two way to solve this problem.
    1) load adobe cleaner tool -  (instructions and download links here http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html) - run it with clean all option and make new install of cloud and all soft in it after installation. And be patient - with 40 Mbit internet channel and near top PC with i7-3770K 32 gb ram and fast SLC SSD - installation just Photoshop CC took 2 or 3 hours.
    2) if all software is working fine just forget about this  piece of buggy code.
    Two weeks ago I finally made  first option. And yesterday got same  problem again. And im tired of it. Really tired. may be someone could make special lock on gas tank for all Adobe developers cars - and if they want to fill it with fuel - thay must call to service that they send someone with key to gas station.  Until they couldnt make correctly autoupdate for cloud tool.
    And else one block in engine, that will limit their cars speed to 30 kmh until they found how use 32 gb of RAM for ACR needs.

  • Windows XP Permissions vs AIR Auto Update

    Hello All,
    I've just started getting into AIR, and I've run into an
    issue. I'm planning an app that would be distributed to Windows XP
    users with limited accounts. The issue I'm currently trying to
    tackle is how to get the application to auto update when a user
    opens it from a limited account. Currently it gives me the error:
    "An error occurred while updating the application. Try updating it
    again. If the problem persists, contact the application author.
    Error# 0".
    Since I'm a Mac guy, I don't know too much about permissions
    and account settings in XP. Is there a way to simply give the
    application the necessary permissions without having the user have
    to login every time like the "Run with different credentials"
    option.

    No, there's no way around this. Prevent applications from
    updating themselves is part of what limited accounts are supposed
    to do.
    You might try finding out how software is normally updated
    for these machines. That's probably the path you want to take for
    this application, too.

  • AIR auto-updater -- include markup?

    I have had my AIR application able to auto-update for some time.  But I'm wondering if you can somehow include HTML in the description you see of the auto-updater.  Here is my update.xml file on the server:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
    <update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/1.0">
      <version>1.0.0</version>
    <url>url-to-air-installation-file</url>
       <description><![CDATA[Text of new things in this version....   ]]></description></update>
    I've tried to remove the <![CDATA[ and use HTML inside the <description> block, but it doesn't work.  Am I missing something?  Is this even possible??
    Thanks,
    Ian

    Just Got The Solution for Error 16811 &  16816
    Note Following things to avoide update error
    No 1.>
    You xml schema for update descriptor.xml in  server should look similar to this
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5">

    Note xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5"
    and versionNumber instead of version
    Also make similar changes in appxml version field (in Burrito its by default versionNumber )
    No 2>
    if u are using code to display veesion number make sure it should look like:
    var appXML:XML = NativeApplication.nativeApplication.applicationDescriptor;
    var ns:Namespace = appXML.namespace();
    pnlMain.title=appXML.ns::name+" v "+appXML.ns::versionNumber
    Thats it...!

  • How do I roll-back to the previous version of Firefox? An auto update occurred and now one of the programs used at the office (ACT! v6.0 SwiftMail) won't run with the browser.

    The office I work in uses a very old version of ACT!, an accounting package. This package has a component called SwiftPage, an antiquated email system that enables us to email from the ACT DB. SwiftPage runs via the web browser.
    Firefox just did an auto update (that I will have to find out how to turn off) and now SwiftPage won't run as it is not compatible.
    Can I "roll-back" my version of Firefox or do I have to uninstall and try to re-install an older version?
    HELP!

    Try loading and using the add-on from this link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    Many add-ons do in fact work if you force them to run. The procedure to roll-back is given in this article: [[installing previous versions of firefox]]
    Unfortunately the official Firefox policy is that you downgrade to 3.6 which is supported for a while longer, and not the now unsupported Firefox 4. If after installing and running the ''add-on compatibility reporter'' you still have problems there are ways around the official policy.
    I think it is absurd that Firefox 4 may be used by tens of millions of users one day and a few days later those that upgrade to Firefox 5 should be not only told not to use a now unsupported browser, if they need to revert due to problems, but are actually obstructed in attempts to do so.

  • Type of HDD in Edge E130 and question about msata SSD

    I'm interested in thickness of HDD in E130. I read that in E125 was 7 mm HDD and there is troubles with 9 mm. So, is  E130 similar to E125(E130 is next-gen of this type netbooks, but there is huge posibility that Lenovo Engineers decided not to change HDD type)? Or 9 mm hard drive will work?
    Installing msata breaks warranty agreement, doesn't it? And i have some, maybe, obvious questions amout msata SSD(i've read about installing SSD in other Thinkpad notebooks), but I need some proves for Edge E130:
    1)Speed is limited by SATAII interface?
    2)mSata drive as bootable device will work?
    Last questions are not such important, but i'll happy, if Edge E130/E135 users will share their experience
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I bought the E130 as a travel computer, so I didn't have to travel with my X220T - which is a tank compared to this little fellow. I have the 3358-8dg model of the e130 (came with free-dos but I bought an extra 4GB Ram to up the total to 8GB). The HDD is the usual 7mm think ones as expected.
    I've had my e130 for 2 days now and I removed the HDD it shipped with and installed a 64GB mSata instead.
    Link to image
    I then installed Win7 with SP1 from a USB in UEFI mode (see this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Discussion/Prepare-an-usb-thumb-drive-to-boot-windows-7-or-8-i... - installed Lenovo System Update 5 and installed all drivers and software along with all windows updates.
    So, running only an mSata HD and booting from it is not a problem at all.
    My windows experience index is 4.9 due to the Graphics: Desktop performance for Windows Aero.
    The HD transfer rate is 7.9.
    The exact model of the mSata SSD I installed is: Crucial m4 SSD 64GB, mSATA 6Gb/s (CT064M4SSD3)
    I hope this helps.

  • Auto-update Folders and Files

    My computer is connected to a network. And on this network I keep copies of my file and folder system for my college courses. I want to be able to start my computer and have everything auto-upload new files to the network and auto-download new files to my computer from the network, that way I don't have to manually do it so often and worry about multiple versions of the same folder or file. Is there a way to accomplish this synchronization of my files on this network with my computer automatically?

  • IPS Auto Update Error

    I am having an issue with the IPS. I have configured it for auto update and I am trying to download a new signature package. It seems to be working. However, once it comes across the package to download, it gives me this error:

  • [Solved] A note and question about slow hostname lookups

    I reinstalled Arch recently and the first thing I noticed was slow resolve times on hostname lookups.  This didn't happen on all webpages but did on about 50% of them.  This also happened on downloads from pacman %100 percent of the time.  I have done a good bit of research and most of the points led to nssswich.  One website said to try using this in nsswitch.conf:
    hosts: files[NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue] dns [NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=return] nis
    With this it appears (after about 20 minutes of testing) that firefox lookups are again behaving normal again.  However, pacman is still having slow lookups (about 30 seconds for each package).  Does anyone know what could be the problem here.  I dont' know much about nsswitch or how it could be the problem.  Is there a way to help return pacman to regular lookup times?
