Updating Add-on version causes installation failure. - plouterman - 2016-03-14
Hi folks,
I'm pulling out hairs here whilst trying to work out how i update an addon within a repo.
I have followed the tutorial in https://youtu.be/tXzPUs9FaF8 but taken the HelloWorld Example
I have basically incremented the addon version number in addon.xml (1.0.0 -> 1.0.1), updated addons.xml, its md5, and zipped all up to script.hello.world-1.0.1.zip
My files can be found in http://cloane.comxa.com/Plugins/
However, the auto-update installation fails and the error reported is;
20:22:28 T:15732 DEBUG: FileManager: copy http://cloane.comxa.com/Plugins/script.hello.world/script.hello.world-1.0.1.zip -> special://home/addons/packages/script.hello.world-1.0.1.zip
20:22:28 T:15732 ERROR: CAddonInstallJob[script.hello.world]: failed to download special://home/addons/packages/script.hello.world-1.0.1.zip
Installation also fails if I try to install from the repository manually.
However, if i zip up the addon files, i can successfully install directly from zip. (i.e, not via the repo)
I am still using Kodi15
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
