DcUpdater + FARR problem
« on: February 14, 2008, 04:28 AM »
Hi,
When I start DCupdater I have there nearly all FARR plugins twice in the Installed packages section. Also I can find there delicious plug-in, which I have deleted and also I can find there for example Character Table plugin, but the problem is that the Character Table plugin doesnt have na dcupdate file... I have tried to rescan for update files but still the same problem...

PS: to mouser: could you please check:

http://czb.dcmembers...add/Gcal_quicadd.zip
http://czb.dcmembers...cadd/versioninfo.xml

if it is correct? DCupdater displays: get version failed :(

The versioninfo.xml file that dcupdater needs isn't XML-compliant. The correct one in your case would be:

Code: Text [Select]
  1. <?xml version="1.0"?>
  2. <Program_Version>1.01.03</Program_Version>
  3. <Program_Release_Month>2</Program_Release_Month>
  4. <Program_Release_Day>14</Program_Release_Day>
  5. <Program_Release_Year>2008</Program_Release_Year>

About all the plug-ins being in DCupdater: the plugins that aren't installed also appear in DCupdater, so that you can install them from there.

About them being repeated... I have no idea why that would happen :(

as to repeated plugins: I have found what is wrong. I have created folder "pluginsbak" in my FARR directory where I have old versions etc... I guess that DCupdater searches whole FARR not only Plugins directory ;)

as to versioninfo.xml
if you take a look here https://www.donation...ex.php?topic=10105.0 there you also have root ;) But I will correct it :)

Oh, then mouser might have updated it. That's better, correctly formed XML are always preferrable.

Ok, then after you change it, tell us how it worked out ;)

ok now it works fine even with the root. I think it was all because of that pluginsbak folder ;)

one more question. Does anyone of you know how to add files to zip, so that additional folder is not created in the zip file?
now I use:
7za a -tzip archive.zip "C:\Program Files\FindAndRunRobot\Plugins\FCalc\"
but in zip file you can see FCalc folder and inside it there are files...

Sorry, i didn't understand your question.

For gridmove, i just use:
7za.exe a gridmove.zip grids/ images/ gridmovep1.ahk gridmovep2.ahk command.ahk
