SCUP catalog for Adobe AIR

Location for SCUP catalog for Adobe AIR

[Destr]

Sorry, We do not deploy update via scup for Adobe Air.

[jyothi289]

Thank you for the response, how do we update AIR future updates?

[Destr]

Via Background update:
if users have old Adobe AIR, they get a pop-up.

[jyothi289]

We want to avoid this since all users do not have Admin rights, is there a recommended method to deploy the future updates automatically?

[Destr]

As of now we do not have any silentUpdate mechanism for Adobe AIR update other than the one mentioned above.

We will take your feedback and share with the team.

[jyothi289]

Ok, please do. Many other companies and Techs are looking for SCUP catalog for AIR. Will be beneficial if it is developed.

[saschao25393384]

Any news on that? We also use SCUP for updating Flash and Acrobat, it would be a great benefit to update AIR and Shockwave the same way.

### most important first step!!!!!!!! ###

Grab the installer from the Download URL: step below and extract the files to get the actual version from the embedded dll. 
also get the msi as its needed for app creation in CM12.

7-zip or winrar work well for this.

Hi Roger,

thank you. I rebuild it but havent test it yet. After first look i thought omg wtf but during building its seems pretty easy - with that type of package .

But i have one/two questions regarding installable rules/installed rules because i cant edit like you have. If i try to add the first "OR" its saying "invalid rule". If i remove it then its good. If i think about it also should work with the first "OR", or? this is what i have eg. inst

AND

    File '[PROGRAM_FILES_COMMONX86]\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll' Version < '25.0.0.134'

  OR

    File '[PROGRAM_FILES_COMMON]\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR.dll' Version < '25.0.0.134'

[saschao25393384]

failure and "OK" is greyed out

now it would be accepted

[saschao25393384]

if i try to publish it, errors occurs, SCUP.log:

PublishItem: --- Digest verification failed on content for software update 'Adobe Air 25.0.0.134 (UpdateId:'75ddd054-a640-4e85-    a68f-c153e8ef0190' Vendor:'Adobe Systems, Inc.' Product:'AIR')'.    Updates Publisher    17.03.2017 18:02:38    4 (0x0004)

If i activate in "package information" "use a local source to publish..." instead of the mentioned URL "http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/win/download/latest/AdobeAIRInstaller.exe it was succesfully published. Any clue on that?

Thank you. Published it anyway and lets wait for SCCM recognition how much devices will need it

[roger.truss]

So sorry for the super long delay, looks like notifications for this chain I am not getting.  The first OR was a typo, sorry about that.  As to the publication error that is because the source file you used was not the same as what was on the web.
