Sparkle

Updates failing, what is the cause?

Asked by cindori

After installing Sparkle in my project and creating appcast ~ 15 min
I have now troubleshooted ~3h cause my updates aren't working

When I press my updatebutton, I get Update error! Error occured in retrieving update information.

In my app I have version number 1.0

and SUFeedURL :

http://www.groths.se/atiflashingtool/updates/update.xml

as you might notice in the appcast it's pretty much the Test appcast that came in /Extras

I also do not have any DSA part cause I want to get this working before I add encryption.

what is causing this?

thanks,

The DSA part is always required, for your users' safety.

If you continue to get errors after adding the signature, please make sure to include console output in future postings.

Thanks!

Thanks! So I did the DSA thingie to my project, and then used Feeder to create an appcast.
and it works.

Now, feeder did generate a DSA signature for me automatically, how would I go about to create this myself?

thanks.
