Silent AIR Update

Hi Guys,
I am able to add Auto update feature into my AIR application, work great!
Now I got a new requirement: enable Silent update, in case we have just small update, we just want to update the application behind the scenes.
I am able to implement most of the requrement. However, at the end of updating, there is a dialog as shown below:
I think this dialog comes from AIR Runtime instead of update framework. Is there a way I can hide this dialog? Or is there any documentation we can custom this action?
Thanks,
George

I believe this dialog come from the update framework.

Adobe Air updater goes Error #1034

Hi,
we've packaged an air application with an old version of air runtime that is automatically deployed to our customer computer.
Everything goes well on install, but when we launch our application, it logically propose our customer to update to the last version of Air.
The problem is that during the update process of air runtime (our application is still running), we have an error #1034 appearing.
the Adobe Air Updater logs are the following :

The most disturbing is that if we close our application and run the updater alone, everything goes well, and our application is running perfectly.
Anyone have a clue on what is happening?
Thanks a lot
Antoine

I've seen this error before in a few posts, but I don't think I've seen a solution or exact cause. Are you seeing this on every system you try or is it isolated to particular machines? If it's occurring everywhere, would you be willing to send me ([email protected]) your installer so I can give it a try?
Thanks,
Chris

Silent AIR application installation fails on AIR 3.9

I install my AIR application silently using the following command :
"/Volumes/Install Test/Install Test.app/Contents/MacOS/Install Test" -silent -location "/Applications/ABC"
It worked fine till AIR 3.8. With the new AIR update 3.9, this command fails with exit code 2 and error "too many arguments"

Thanks Oliver. I uninstalled the application and then
uninstalled AIR 1.1. I then re-installed AIR 1.1 and attemped to
re-install the application. The error is still happening. Here is
the log file. Do you have any ideas?

Unable to install Adobe Air Update

I am unable to install an Adobe Air update. I am running Windows7, getting error code 80040154. Could it be Kapersky anti virus software blocking?

Thank you for your help. I have suspended Kapersky but I cannot find Air when I search in the Programs and when I try to install I now get a message saying 'it may be your administrator blocking you'. I am the only user and set up as the Administrator but do not know how to check if this is the case.
I have managed to install the application that needs Air on an old XP notebook. Much Appreciation for your help. RJ

No WIFI after iOS 5.0.1 over-the-air update on original iPad

No WIFI after iOS 5.0.1 over-the-air update on original iPad. I have reset the network settings, power off the iPad, trying static IP and nothing, it's unable to join my wifi network. anybody with the same issue?

Great! Thanks, this works.
I have an old Linksys WRT54G in it I can select WPA Personal and AES as algorithm--it works for me (though maybe just changing to anything works! but I will not try anything different since I have spent already so much time with this problem.) Again, thanks for the solution Juan.

Error 1620 During AIR Update and AIR App updates

On of our customers is having repeated problems installing our application update on Windows XP SP3. I checked the install.log and see that the most recent error he is getting is Windows Installer Error 1620, but my research has not turned up very much helpful information about that error. Do you know what might cause this?
An excerpt from his log file is below.
Many thanks for your help,
Taylor

Hi Chris,
Thanks so much for the quick response. After he investigated further, he determined that it was Comodo Internet Security Premium. He disabled it, uninstalled, and then reinstalled both AIR and You Need a Budget (our product), and it worked great after that! Thanks again for the quick response.
Best regards,
Taylor

I can't find the software update for the ios5 on air update

Where can I find the software update option for iOS 5 on air update on iPad2. Not able to find it in current settings menu

If it's not available within Settings->General->Update, have patience. The Apple servers in your area don't have it for your region yet.

An unexpected error occurred. Error# 16828 - Air Update

I am trying to create an update system of my Air program. The first application (release) is created in EXE (native installer). The new version is made to a Air file (AIR package). I get an error in the and of installation - An unexpected error occurred. Error# 16828 - Air Update.
If I make the first releaseas as AIR package, then this error does not occur and the updates take place correctly.

Hi,
I'm exactly sure what you're trying to do, but the error you mentioned (16828) equals:
Cannot update application, usually because the application is running in the AIR Debug Launcher (ADL)
Is your app still running while you're trying to do the update? You might want to take a look at the following developer article that discusses techniques available for updating natively installed applications.
Updating Adobe AIR applications packaged with a native installer
fwiw, I tried a simple test where I created a native installer app, installed, launched, quit, then created a .air version of the installer and "replaced" the version I had previously installed by double clicking the .air file. That worked fine and the app launched as expected.
Thanks,
Chris

AIR Update framework with Flash Builder

Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right place but since this problem happens with the new Flash Builder 4 and AIR, I am putting it here :
When I run the Air update framework with the new flash builder , i get this exception when I call appUpdater.initialize() in the same given in http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/communityengine/index.cfm?event=showdetails&product Id=4&postId=9543
The error is
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.

The code is the exact same given in the updater example i mentioned in the link above. Only difference is i am using spark framework. The appUpater.initialize() never seem to work and keeps throwing an exception. Any alternatives so suggestions ?
This works fine in my Flex Builder 3.

Adobe Air Update for Flash

I installed the AIR update for flash cs3, when I boot flash
on the welcome screen there is now a "create new Air document"
option in it to create new air documents.
However if I already have a file open in flash I cannot see
the welcome screen and when I go to FILE>NEW there is still no
option for a new AIR document. this is becoming very frustarting
because if I have several files open I have to close everyone to
get the welcome screen back so I can create a new Air File.
Is there a way to atleast get the welcome screen to show up
when other files or open or any other way to create a new air file
without having to close every other open file???
Thanks!

You can, instead, create a new standard Flash document then
go to the "publish settings" and select the AIR profile. This
should convert the Flash doc to an AIR doc. You still may have to
edit the the "AIR - Application and Installer Settings", though.

Android: This app requires a newer version of Adobe AIR - update now?

Trying to run an app on the Emulator for Android:
and I get this message.
This app requires a newer version of Adobe AIR - update Adobe AIR now?
of course when I do click on the Update button - nothing happens, it just goes back to the main screen of the Emulator.
How do I update it. I now know how to install Adobe AIR runtime into the Emulator, but I can't find how one updates it?
I only installed "adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219" a few days ago...
thanks

Ok, got it.
Anyone else need help .. you can get the latest runtimes here.

It's packaged in the AIR SDK.
Nice.

Air Update Framework Issue... Help please!

The following code is from the Air Employee Directory example
to which I have added an Update Object, the app installs and
updates with no problem, but as soon as the update is done and it's
time for the app to start, the app just doesn't come up. It was
working fine before I added the update object... Any idea on what I
could be doing wrong?

This was an issue with the Update Framework in AIR SDK 1.5.3, which has been fixed. If you still want to use the ApplicationUpdaterUI, you can replace the swc in Flex SDK 3.6 with an applicationupdater_ui.swc from a newer version of AIR.
Have a look at solution 3 in this post for some details on where to find the applicationupdater_ui.swc and how to replace it.

The wierd thing is that i am using a cs5.5 and i am using applicationupdater_ui.swc..I thought this was something you can import without using a swc in the library path. Is there differnet applicationupdater_ui.swc, one for air 1.5 and one for air 2.5 and higher or do you use the same one?
