2010-02-12 Thread James
Ok I made a copy of the app thats not working "NonWorkingCoolvisi" tried to 
install it to bring up the error and then went through the ".airappinstall.log" 
process and it produced the following log:-

Starting app install of file:///C:/Users/Gaz/Desktop/NonWorkingCoolvisi.air
UI SWF load is complete
UI initialized
Unpackaging to C:\Users\Gaz\AppData\Local\Temp\fla50FA.tmp
failed while unpackaging: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false 
cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="invalid package signature" errorID=5022]
starting cleanup of temporary files
application installer exiting

Any ideas what this means and how I could fix it? Cheers.

Ah right. The name of the swf file itself contained an ampersand or the air

I tried changing the name of the air file to include only letters but that
didn't seem to work either.

Yes, look at the appinstall log.  I don't recall exactly how to do that so
just google it.  In my case it was a bad character in the filename, an
ampersand if I recall correctly.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Air File Is Damaged Error

2010-02-12 Thread Jim Hayes
Are you including any other files in the package?
I seem to remember that certain characters in their file names could
cause this problem.
Maybe an ampersand ??? I'm sorry, it was quite a while ago and I've
forgottten exactly which char(s) caused it for me.
There was a bug open on it at the time as I remember.
Maybe worth having a quick scan through and see if theres anything
unusual in there?
 
An .air file is basically a .zip achive, by the way, if you need to look
inside - take a copy and rename It to.zip
 
These "damaged" errors seem to occur when the archive cannot be
expanded, so a lack of space in your temp directory can also cause this.
 
You can log the process by placing a file called .airappinstall.log in
your home directory, by the way - the install process will be logged to
that, so it may give you a litte more info as to the cause.

I don't think so. In a project I made a while ago I have an app called
coolvisi1. A few months back I created an air file from this very app
called coolvisi1.air and I've tested it just now and it works perfectly.
The app in question hasn't even been touched since back then. I've just
tried to create another air file from it called coolvisi2.air and I got
the error.

However I've made another app the other day and tried to make an air
file from that and it worked upon installation. This makes me think it's
something to do with the code inside the app but how would I be able to
find out what is causing this? Is there any way of looking at the
contents of an air file to see exactly what is "damaged" and compare it
to the contents of the one that works or something along those lines?

Totally crazy problem and I've had a few of them this week :-(

[flexcoders] Re: Air File Is Damaged Error

2010-02-12 Thread James
I don't think so. In a project I made a while ago I have an app called 
coolvisi1. A few months back I created an air file from this very app called 
coolvisi1.air and I've tested it just now and it works perfectly. The app in 
question hasn't even been touched since back then. I've just tried to create 
another air file from it called coolvisi2.air and I got the error.

However I've made another app the other day and tried to make an air file from 
that and it worked upon installation. This makes me think it's something to do 
with the code inside the app but how would I be able to find out what is 
causing this? Is there any way of looking at the contents of an air file to see 
exactly what is "damaged" and compare it to the contents of the one that works 
or something along those lines?

Totally crazy problem and I've had a few of them this week :-(

Have you recently changed sign certificates?  Had a similar problem when our 
certain expired.  Ended up having to migrate the old one to the new for each 
update.

Yes but the fact that other air files I make are working shows that it's not a 
flex/air related problem doesn't it? If it is this though how would I fix it?
