Update check fails in v1.7.0 #24

Open porg opened 10 months ago

porg commented 10 months ago

v1.7.0 contacts via HTTP to:

http://quantum-technologies.iap.uni-bonn.de/alberti/iTunesVolumeControl/VolumeControlCast.xml.php?version=1.7.0&osxversion=Version%2011.7.10%20(Build%2020G1427)

which fails with: 404 - Component not found.

Proposal: Correct the server side handling so that elder clients also get the convenient auto update.

Good news for the current version 1.7.4

I went to the Github homepage README.md and downloaded the newest ZIP, then got v1.7.4 and then the update mechanism works again.

Thanks for spotting this problem. Yes, I had to give up to the previous server hosting the different releases. GitHub is the right place where to download newer releases of the app.

In Volume-Control 1.7.4 (or slightly earlier) the updating check server and protocol was changed. If you use Volume-Control 1.7.0 (or slightly newer, or older) then automatic updating will fail. Please go to https://github.com/alberti42/Volume-Control/ and download the newest release from there. — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub https://github.com/alberti42/Volume-Control/issues/24#issuecomment-1888804087, or unsubscribe https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/AAAPC4D2XTBYY2WGU7L2NI3YOED33AVCNFSM6AAAAABBX3V6M6VHI2DSMVQWIX3LMV43OSLTON2WKQ3PNVWWK3TUHMYTQOBYHAYDIMBYG4.
