Updatebuider : updates no longer work

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack
1

HI

Yesterday, I had to propose two small updates to my app. I use updatebuilder to do that.
The first one was a success, but the latter one was a failure with this message :

The update file not found
WEBUPDATE.LOG for more detail

The webupdate.log indication is below :

23/06/2025 12:08:49 : [918] Checking for Internet connection (Status:3) (Error:0)
23/06/2025 12:08:49 : [921] Found open Internet connection (Status:3) (Error:0)

23/06/2025 12:08:56 : [925] Update control file not found (Status:2) (Error:0)

23/06/2025 12:08:56 : [949] Closed Internet connection (Status:3) (Error:0)

Note that there have been absolutely no changes to WebUpdate properties, nor to UpdateBuilder.

The INF file is present in the update directory.

What's going on?

Kind regards

Hi,

What is the difference between your first and second update? Are the settings in the INF file valid, meaning a valid URL?

Hi and thank you for your answer

The only difference came from the software (*.exe). the URL I used is exactly the same URL as before.

Thus no change other than the executable.

Was there potentially a connection that was still open? Did you try restarting the UpdateBuilder and try again? I cannot immediately think of anything except for other software that interfered with the process.

I don't know but I don't think so.

Did you try restarting the UpdateBuilder and try again?

Yes of course, and many times. Notice, I upload data build by UpdateBuilder "manually" via FTP (filezilla). This upload works very well.

I can send you the INF file as well as a WEBUPDATE.LOG file (with with updates since November 2024), but by private message ;)

Regards

Hi

I'd like to apologize. I found the problem, and it was totally my fault.

Sorry again for bothering you with this.

Kind regards

Hi,

No worries. May I ask, without providing personal details, what the issue was exactly?

No pb

Before I left on my 6-week trip, I had prepared the URL link in an “.INI” to be more flexible.

However, on my return, I had completely forgotten this, and was ONLY checking the URL in the WebUpdate component (and not in the INI). And the URL was registering incorrectly...
Too stupid :shushing_face:, sorry again.

Thanks!
