macupdater_client does not exit if scans too frequent, hangs scripts #158

Closed luckman212 closed 2 years ago

Hi @vitorgalvao

I started using /Applications/MacUpdater.app/Contents/Resources/macupdater_client scan in some automation scripts. I didn't know about this CLI!

One problem, as I was testing, obviously I was running the scan parameter more often than normal, so I hit this:

The problem here is, even after clicking OK, the macupdater_client process does not exit, so the script hangs indefinitely. I imagine this could/would affect the Alfred workflow as well.

Nice catch. That’s something which should be addressed in the MacUpdater CLI. It won’t affect the Workflow because it handles updates, not the scanning (that should be left to MacUpdater’s scheduling). If you contact MacUpdater, which I guess you might’ve done already, someone will take a look. Though it seems like a low priority issue, I imagine it doesn’t happen often.

Thank you for the concern.

Sure, I just reported it via email to support. Thanks @vitorgalvao

thanks for the bug report. we've addressed this now and the fix will be in the next public release of #MacUpdater (build number > 13887)

can't say if there will be another 2.2.2 build or if the next release will already be version 2.3
