Electron is querying an url like this https://download.someapp.com/update/darwin_x64/1.1.1/latest-mac.json. This produces a 404 error, Page not found. Nuts logs out the following:

Error: No platform specified and impossible to detect one

What am I doing wrong? Am I using the wrong URL?

Turns out that this is a safety feature of running nuts on Google App Engine. No Updates available (204 No Content) is translated automatically into a 404 Page not Found. When an update is actually available it works as advertised.
