code signing doesn't work anymore

Asked by Robert DuToit

Hi Andy,

I have been signing my updates for several years and it all works fine. Suddenly I am getting the classic "Improperly signed" error when the clicking "install and relaunch."

I have gone over it ten times looking for some dumb typo but no luck.

I signed the zipped app using your ruby script, uploaded it and added the signature to the appcast, and no luck.
Here is the appcast:

Hi All,

Sorry! I found the as-expected bug. I had a lowercase in the download zip name in the wrong place. Five hours later….

Thanks for your time and, Andy, thanks as ever for your outstanding gift to the community.

Yours, Rob
