Joerg is onto something here, unfortunately he's in the wrong place. Instead, check the "sitelist" file in the AmiUpdate directory (usually SYS:System/AmiUpdate) and see if there are any login details there you might be able to use...

Simon

AmiUpdate uses the xadmaster.library to unpack archives, so as long as you choose a supported archive format, there shouldn't be a problem.

Simon

This is the usual way to do it. Done it many times myself over the years.

@Chris

I'll try and get some time over the weekend to look into that.

Simon

@khayoz

Unfortunately, not yet. Work is still ongoing on finalising V1.0

Simon

Hopefully this should be fixed now.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Simon

On the bright side though, I'm liking the slight increase in font size.

I'm not getting any younger, you know... :)

Simon

No idea what's going on here. I spent ages testing it all out in different situations and it worked perfectly here (despite what others may think!).

Anyway, I have removed the separate updates from the database now, so all the components in the main archive should gel together (they do here, at least).

Sorry for the confusion.

Simon

I would suggest to check/change the 2032 battery. Sounds like it might be on the way out...

Simon

I had no problem with using Chrome. Perhaps you retards need to realise that Amiga browsers are just to old....

:P

Simon

Hmmm, spot the Monty Python fan..............

Unless the code is somehow broken, AmiUpdate should create the file (if it doesn't exist, or amend/append, to it if it does, ONLY on a successful connection.

Once the login details are confirmed and a login is confirmed, THEN the sitelist file will be altered or created to store those details.

As I said, unless some changes have broken that operation somehow, it should work as it always did.

Simon

Sorry, my fault. Should be working now

@Tohe

Just bear in mind this has nothing to do with "official" updates, from Hyperion. These are third party updates that like to mimic OS files (by cloning or superseding version numbers) and confusing the fuck out of users.

AEon has taken it upon itself to try and rewrite the OS one little piece at a time, without much success I might add.

You buy "Enhancer" at your own risk. I might even question the name, IMO...

@walkero

As ktadd said, (to paraphrase), your work as beta tester was done on a voluntary basis, you knew that when you started. You may go on to higher things, and if you think your work is worth paying for, take it up with whomever may pay the bils.

Whining about it on a forum is not going to better your situation.

It is what it is, and it's doubtful much more will come of it. If only we could all work for Microsoft....

Simon

I have fixed the database entry now, so this should no longer be offered if you have updated already

Simon

On my system, the user-startup script is called BEFORE LoadWB is executed.

Simon

@salass00

Thanks for that, I thought I was going mad:)

It's now fixed in the database, so the recurring update should not happen any more.

Simon

@salass00

Thanks for the grab. I don't know what's going on here, but I can't find the entry for that update in the database. Which server is this update coming from? Public updates?

Perhaps you could grab the main list where this update is shown...

Simon

@redfox

Can you grab the info window showing the remote and local files and send it to me please. I'dlike to double check something.

Many thanks

Simon
