We created a WebExtension and autoupdate doesn’t appear to work. The logging suggests it can read the updates.json, but for some reason doesn’t update the extension. I’ve tried numerous things nothing seems to work. I paste the url’s into the browser window and it correctly gets to the files without issue. The .xpi files are signed through AMO just like the current version.
Any ideas?
We set the update url in the manifest as such:
“applications”: {
“gecko”: {
“id”: "prqproduct@prqx.com",
“update_url”: “https://prqx.blob.core.windows.net/prqproduct/updates.json”
}
}
The updates.json looks like:
{
“addons”: {
"prqproduct@prqx.com": {
“updates”: [
{“version”: “2.1.1”,
“update_link”: “https://prqx.blob.core.windows.net/prqproduct/test2.1.1.xpi”},
{“version”: “2.1.2”,
“update_link”: “https://prqx.blob.core.windows.net/prqproduct/test2.1.2.xpi”}
]
}
}
}
I updated the extension update interval and I see this in the logging, but no errors:
