recently updated addons no longer show up #23

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open app (MacAceUpdater)
2. select out of date addons
3. some addons do not show up as installed

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
previously downloaded addons should show up with an installed version number in 
the app. 
instead i see no version number and the app doesn't even know the addon was 
downloaded 
before.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacAceUpdater 0.3.1 on os x 10.4.8

Please provide any additional information below.
it appears that the change logs have been given a new naming system. old: 
changelog-
r11111.txt and new: Changelog-Addon-r11111.txt after i went and changed the 
recently 
updated addons changelog's back to the old look they showed up as being 
installed before in 
your app.

Yes, the format of the changelogs in the zip files was changed on the server - 
it's
since been changed back so as not to break the updaters while a better solution 
is
found.

So what do we do about this? As is the updater doesn't work properly.

As it is now, the updater should work fine. The only problem will be if you 
installed
zips generated in the couple of days with the different format. In this case, 
simply
use the updater to install a new version once one is available, and it'll pick 
up the
version again.

Actually I found today that some items (cartographer addons) disappeared from 
the "installed" list after I updated 
so it seems this is still a problem.

I went in and looked and found that the changelog for an addon modified today 
(sRaidFrames in this case) still 
use the Changelog-Addon-rXXXXX.txt format. Perhaps it would be worthwile to 
write some logic into 
MacAceUpdater to read either format for the changelog (it shouldn't be hard to 
create a regex string that 
bypasses the name... if you can use regex in the app).

Indeed, it's easily fixable - the only reason I haven't is that I was told that 
the
changelog format had certainly been reverted.

I've just tested this, with sRaidFrames and other addons modified yesterday, 
and can
confirm that the server /is/ still using the old changelog format, and mau is
recognising the version ok.

hmm, so why doesn't it work for me? I guess I'll reinstall and try.

Ah, I wonder if the mirror which mau uses by default is maybe not mirroring 
exactly.
Try changing the url to http://files.wowace.com/ and see if that helps.

Thank you! that solved both the default sort order (now sorted by name) and 
also updates installed files.

Not working over here for any files downloaded today or yesterday. 
MacAceUpdater (0.3.1) is pointed to http://
files.wowace.com/ and the downloaded plugin folders contain the old 
changelog-rXXXXX.txt format. For 
example: Ace includes the file changelog-r26541.txt right now. In 
MacAceUpdater, the "Latest" column properly 
shows 26541, but the "Installed" column is blank. I've tried "Refresh List", 
and also tried copying the changelog 
file to the 'new' format, but nothing I do lets the plugin be detected as 
installed, even though I had 
MacAceUpdater do the installing. The plugins are listed alphabetically, so that 
part seems to be OK; it's just the 
detection of installed plugins which is still causing problems.

Same Issue as above... grabbed this app just today to test it out, used it to 
update some of my mods (it identified 
most, but not all, the first time). Found out one of the updated mods had a 
dependency that needed to be 
installed, so I open this up again to grab that... now it only sees a handful 
of my installed ace addons as actually 
installed.

Changing the mirror to fils.wowace.com only solved the creative ordering of 
mods... didn't change the above 
issue at all.

Is there any new information on this? I just downloaded it about an hour ago 
and the Installed column isn't 
changing at all for any updates I install. Pointed it to 
http://files.wowace.com/ and that didn't help either. 
Everything installs correctly, it's just the Installed column isn't displaying 
the installed version for some reason..

I found where the bug is. In the AddOns Directory option in the preferences... 
if you don't put a trailing slash 
on the AddOns folder it won't work. For instance, if you use:

/Applications/World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns/

It will work. But if you use:

/Applications/Games/World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns

It won't work.

Confirmed, adding the trailing slash to my AddOns Folder options in th 
preferences did the trick, thanks for the 
workaround, watsonian!

Looks like the website has changed the changelogs format again. Really, the 
version detection is a bit too picky 
in 0.3.1: if even the case is wrong on the changelog file, it'll refuse to 
acknowledge the installed addon.
