Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Extension Downloader: which plugins updated... and more
Hi Triode. I have jut received a "Plugind updated, need restart" alert on my SBS web gui home page. As a result I navigated to the plugins/ED page and restarted via the popup alert. Once restarted I restarted Firefox and checked that the alert had cleared from the home and plugins page. It had. So, assuming that a plugin needed updating then all appeared to work fine. I've attached log with (I'm pretty sure) the server.plugin logging still set to info in case it's of any use in this case.

It has just struck me that Problem 2 might be reslted to this problem (and in fcat be a bug in the status reports that appear at the bottom of the SBS home page, rather than ED. At least twice in ther last three days after doing full rescans the status notice at the bottom of the web gui that says something like "SBS is still scanning your music library" has persisted after the scan has finsished "and after* I've shut down the web gui and reopened it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Extension Downloader: which plugins updated... and more
I still think we might be missing each othera bit. There are two (possibly entirely distinct) problems. Problem 1: No indication which individual plugins are being updated (or need updating). This after receiving a notification on the main SBS page that some plugins need updating and a restart required. I think this is the one we agree I am seeing and needs fixing so a user can know which plugins are beiung updated. Problem 2: No indication appears on the SBS home page (or anywhere else) that plugins need updating but when ED/Plugins page is navigated to the "Choose to restart now or later" pop-up ..err.. pops up.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Extension Downloader: which plugins updated... and more
MC - so I think this is working as expected with automatic updates enabled. What is missing is log of what has be updated. We need to add this... If you look at: http://svn.slimdevices.com/slim/vendor/plugins/ You will see the repo.xml and other.xml files have been updated frequently for the latest versions of each of the plugins. If you have any of these installed then your server will check these xml feeds once every 24 hours and download any updates. The only visual clue of this is the needs upgrade message. Would this explain what you are seeing? I think it would be useful to put something in the plugin status page info area to say what was installed at the last restart. At this point we know it has been succefully installed. -- Triode Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69573 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Extension Downloader: which plugins updated... and more
OK. The message telling me to that there were updated plugins available was on the SBS web gui home page. I *do* have "Update all plugins automatcially" selected. I need to get something clear. I have no evidence either way that any plugins needed updating. If I did then they probably updated fine and everything worked as exactly as I'd have expected it to... with one exception... there was no indication on the ED page informing me which plugins needed updating (or maybe more correctly, were being updated). I was under thye ipression (form a post form Phil above??) that the plugins needing updates would be highlighted in bold. --- Before posting this I went to the ED page to make sure that I had selected Update all plugins automatically". Despite no notifications anywhere (that I can see) the pop-up window appeared informing me that I needed to restart SBS for the updates to take affect (I have not made any updates since last posting and have restarte at least twice since then. I have done 2 full rescans though). I elected to restart later. Is it worth me turning on the debugging again to trap the restart pop-up for my next visit to the ED page, or is it to late now for useful info? I think if I am the only one receiving oddities like this then it might be because of the "Additional" third party repositories I have added. I'm a bit dubious the first one of them. They are: http://www.mikecappella.com/wallpaper/wallpapers.xml http://erlandplugins.googlecode.com/svn/repository/trunk/testing.xml. I have not installed any of Erlands beta plugins.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Extension Downloader: which plugins updated... and more
Ok - we need to be really clear which messages you are seeing and when. Is this the message on the front page of the web interface, or on the plugin page? What exactly did it say? Do you have any manually installed versions of the same plugins in the system at the same time? If its due to the plugin page showing that there are plugins which have been updated, then does it show when you go to another page and come back. If so can you enable plugin.extensions debugging and post this on a bug for the time when you see this. I'm afraid extension downloader is complex as there's lots of distributed state in terms of all the async downloading and contents of the repos - I can't reproduce your problems at present, so I need a few more hints from the debugs.. -- Triode Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69573 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I have just received a message stating that my plugins have been updated and that I need to restart SBS. I then went to the plugins/Extension Downloader page and closed the pop-up, electing to restart later. I've looked really, really hard to find any plugins highlighted in bold text (or even any bold text at all) that might indicate which plugins are being updated, but could not find any.
