Sparkle update errors on Mac

[jesse.robertson]

I'm just trying to upgrade to the latest alpha build of ST2, but Sparkle (I assume that's what's being used here) keeps coming up with an error. I'm using a 2007 model Macbook running the latest version of Snow Leopard (10.6). Any hints?

What's the error?

[jesse.robertson]

It's just a dialog that says "Update Error! An error occurred while installing the update. Please try again later." So not very helpful. It pops up after you click "Install and Relaunch", so everything up to that point (downloading, checking etc) is running smoothly.

Looking in my syslog, this seems to be the problem:

Code: Select all

30/04/11 7:47:44 AM   Sublime Text 2[6541]   Sparkle Error: An error occurred while installing the update. Please try again later.
30/04/11 7:47:44 AM   Sublime Text 2[6541]   Sparkle Error (continued): Couldn't find an appropriate update in the downloaded package.

I'm just downloading a new version directly from the web so will let you know next build whether this happens again.

Ah, bugger - feeling pretty stupid. Realised I moved the ST app bundle from Applications to another folder, so I suspect the updater couldn't find the app to upgrade.

Everything seems to be running/updating fine now.

Same error here. How do I update Sublime, or what is the workaround?

If the auto update is giving you issues, then you can download the application again, and copy it over the old version.
