Forum: TrueUpdate 1.0

I am testing our software on compatibility with Windows Vista, using Vista build 5365. While trying to run "Check for Updates", I've got the following message: "This program has been damaged, possibly by a bad sector of the hard drive or a virus. Please, reinstall it". Sure reinstall did not help....

I have an True Update project that has been working fine for months, but now I have some clients who are not able to Download files from HTTP location using the HTTP protocol. They are getting error "Failed to download file from Web (#8, Line 7)" and updation process terminates.Internet browsing...

First I am a Newbie in true update. I have published an *.uif file on a server. If I enter the IP address in the client file and build the download works. However, I have to go through a policy director for an extranet site. I added the variable, %NextDownloadWebFilename% equal only to the...

I think I know the answer to this but want to check. I am using the "copy files" action in the server files I am using. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. When not I get messages similar to this: Could not copy file (#5, Line 4) One or more files could not be copied C:\program files\voltrax...

hello, I read about how users won't need to configure TU2 because it uses wininet and therefor it gets the settings from IE. I was planning on using TU silently (which I guess takes away the configuration option) so is TU2 a big improvement? How many people actually are affected by this? How did...

Hi, I am trying to update my clients to TU2 by downloading the update.exe and update.dat from the server, then closing and deleting the currently executing update.exe (Within TU1). I am getting a 'TU Client has caused a blah blah blah...do you want to send a report to MS' error. I realize...

Hello, I unchecked all of the options but I can still see the program popping up and then disappearing on the taskbar, and its sort of distracting so is their anyway to make it completely silent? Thanks.

I would like the option of a silent updatecheck in my program. So everytime my program starts, TU checks for an update. Only when it finds one, it will display the updatewizard. When it doesn't find one, the user won't notice any of this. Is this possible? Regards, Fabian van Schevikhoven...

Hello, if I wanted to structure it so that it could get the checksum of each different file (and have each file be its own version identifier) and more than one of them need an update, will it be able to accept multiple version identifiers proving true and doing the actions in all of them?

Hello everyone, I have my test program check an ini file for the version (and once it updates it, correct the ini), and it works fine if theirs an update, but if one is not needed it says the program is not properly installed when it should be saying an update is not needed. Do you have any ideas...

Hello, I was testing the app and I have a few errors when trying to update. I wanted my final version to be able to get a subdomain (update.mydomain.com) instead of mydomain.com/update/update.uif, which shouldnt be a problem as update.mydomain.com just points to mydomain.com/update/update.uif. ...

Hello, do you have any suggestions on how to make my program (which will launch the updater silently) wait until the update is finished before moving on? That is one of my only fears about a standalone application. I am using delphi if that matters.

Hello, I'm thinking about getting true update but I'd like to know if the update file needs to be called update.exe or can I rename it?

I'm a potential user of TrueUpdate - what happens if I check for updates everytime I run the application, but there is not internet connection. Does/could it display a dialog?

I would love to see an option to enter a login and password with an option to remember the information when performing a web update. This way, if I configure my web updates to download from an FTP server (currently we are using an HTTP server) then I can see what users have downloaded what. Also,...

How do I delete the True Update Image at the bottom? I would like to add my own image there. Here is the image I am talking about Thanks in advance! :yes

Hello, I was just wondering when TrueUpdate 2.0 is coming out?

Some of our clients have their browsers set to use the "Automatic Configuration Script" option in Internet Explorer (Tools->Internet Options->Connections->LAN Settings). In those clients, TrueUpdate fails stating it cannot connect to the Web. I've noticed that the "Configure" option in the...

Hi, Sorry about my english :huh . My app run´s over a LAN, the exe file resides only on my 'server' this means that all clients run that file from a link and only have the runtime environment archives installed (dll's,ocx...). If i want to update the whole system (server exe and then client...

Hello, We are using TrueUpdate right now in a series of our products. We've noticed that it's been quite some time since your last minor or major update of this technology. Given the robust set of feature suggestions offered by users (including ourselves), we're concerned that the pace of...

I am having a rough time understanding true update. It looks like no training is available for this product besides the user's guide. Is there any training CD's, sample projects, or advice out there that would help me to get a grasp on True Update? We have built an ams project that we would...

Hi I need to release a newer version of my program, but I need to uninstall the previous version first which was created with SetupFactory, as I am unable to see any options in TrueUpdate to Self Register dll files Can anyone show me a little script that would do this please. I have tried...

Help! I've taken over the True Update and Visual Patch programs with no training from the previous developer. I've had a few phone calls with the following error: Error #99, Line 8 The people were trying to update their program, it starts to download the patch, then quits and gives this...

I am evaluating TrueUpdate for use with our program. I started by creating a simple server file that had one version with the LatestVersion action set. That worked as expected. Then I added a second version to grab and apply a patch file created by a custom application we've written. It worked...
