OTA Failes very often for RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices #3

Hi,

it looks like the OTA-Update is failing if the Sonoff with the firmware from https://github.com/RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices connect to a github server. If the device connects to amazon, the update is good. See issue Issue 52 Any suggestions why this could be?

Thanks for your work.

thanks for your feedback.

I hope to make a new cycle of improvements to the life-cycle-manager software, of which this ota repo is the experimental copy.

The issue you describe is known since a long time but I have not been able to fix it.
It happens when the string that contains the filename user_file even though it prints correctly at the point where it is read from the flash, by the time it is used to create the URL to collect it, it is empty. But then after some cycles or a reset, it is just there and the update works...

Anyway, the intention is to make the next step, so if people can feed back on the approach, that would be nice.

I just saw an update in this repo! Many thanks ! What do we need to do users who are using the RAvencore firmware in order to use the updated OTA mechanism ?

Just be a little more patient!!
For now this is a pre-release because I want to test everything before sending everyone a one way ticket to a bricked device.

But since this is Christmas, it shouldn’t be long!

Wish you all the best!
