new AIR updater breaks nativeapplicationupdater?

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

I installed the new AIR update yesterday (10/13/2010) and now checkNow() 
doesn't download or install the installer.

What error/problem do you get? 
I have the latest AIR on my Mac and it works without any issues...

checkNow() still doesn't work for me, but using downloadUpdate() and 
installUpdate() does, using 0.4 (I didn't try this method in 0.3),

Do you run initialize() before checkNow()?

Yes, here is how I was doing it, the prompt worked fine, but it stopped 
downloading when I clicked "Yes":

private function initiateUpdateCheck(evt:Event):void
{
  if (monitor.available)
  {
    air_updater.updateURL = "http://myurl/download/update.xml";
    air_updater.addEventListener(StatusUpdateEvent.UPDATE_STATUS,checkForUpdates);
    air_updater.initialize();
    air_updater.checkForUpdate();
  } else
  {
    AirAlert.show("Network is not ready. Make sure you are connected to the    
         internet.","Error");
  } 
}

private function checkForUpdates(evt:Event):void
{               
   if (air_updater.currentState == "AVAILABLE")
   {
      if (air_updater.currentVersion < air_updater.updateVersion)
      {
         AirAlert.show("There is a new version available 
           ("+air_updater.updateVersion+"). Update?","Update Available",Alert.YES | 
              Alert.NO,updatePromptHandler,null,Alert.YES);

      } else {
      AirAlert.show("Your software is up to date.","No Update Available");
      }
   } 
}

private function updatePromptHandler (e:CloseEvent):void
{               
   if (e.detail == Alert.YES)
   {                    
      air_updater.checkNow();
   } 
}

You shouldn't run checkForUpdate() right after initialize. Look at my post 
describing the process:
