I believe you'll want to keep your updater xml set to 2.5.  I'm using this on an app built with 2.6, though I admit that it took a bit of trial and error on my part.  What error message do you get when you do run against 2.5?  Do you mind posting the contents of your update.xml file?

Thanks,

Chris

I have a similar issue with implementing the updater on Windows XP

AIR Runtime installed 2.6.0.19140

adl.exe  Version 2.6.0.18830 2.6.0.19120

update.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5">
  <versionNumber>1.3</versionNumber>
  <url>http://www.url.com/app.air</url>
  <description>
        <text xml:lang="en">Version v1.3</text> 
  </description>
</update>
 

updateConfig.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<configuration xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/configuration/2.6"> 
    <url> http://www.url.com/update.xml</url> 
    <delay>0</delay>
     <defaultUI>
       <dialog name="checkForUpdate" visible="false" />
       <dialog name="downloadUpdate" visible="true" />
       <dialog name="downloadProgress" visible="false" />
       <dialog name="installUpdate" visible="true" />
   </defaultUI>     
</configuration>

Throwing the following error  for

updater.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR, onError);

For those following along, I've got a small update.  It appears that this was a known issue in 2.6, but there is a solution.  I don't have detailed steps yet (the team that works on this is based in Europe, so I should have either a link to a knowledge base article or detailed steps tomorrow) but I've heard it's something like: "users must first update their current app with an application that contains the new application updater framework (the one from AIR 2.6) and after that make another update to their app with the 2.6 NS."

I'll post again as soon as I learn more.

Hi Matt,

In the updateConfig.xml, could you try changing

<configuration xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/configuration/2.6"> 

<configuration xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/configuration/1.0"> 

Hi Chris,

thanks for finding this little number-error. Works for me now this way with the 2.5 SDK .

Hi Shiju,

Did the steps and documents that I referenced in this post help you at all?

Sorry about the broken links.  Not sure what happened there.  They should be fixed now.
