Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 375023

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Administration, defect)

Description

[Sébastien Vauclair]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.11) Gecko/20070312 Firefox/1.5.0.11
Build Identifier: 

Firefox cannot find update 1.3 for this extension, it always finds update 1.2 (which was the last pre-Remora update).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install version 1.2 of the extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3130)
2. Restart Firefox
3. Find update for extension
Actual Results:  
No update found

Expected Results:  
Version 1.3 found

Firefox requests URL:
https://addons.mozilla.org/update/VersionCheck.php?reqVersion=1&id={14d1580a-2611-11db-9628-00e08161165f}&version=1.2&maxAppVersion=2.0.0.*&appID={ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}&appVersion=1.5.0.11&appOS=WINNT&appABI=x86-msvc

Which indeed returns version 1.2, wherease version 1.3 exists (see https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3130)

Additional testing done: installing v1.1.2 of the extension and checking for update finds v1.2

Note version 1.3 of this extension is showing a target minimum version of 1.5b1 which wasn't possible until recently.

Probably duplicate of bug 375023

Assuming this is your extension, try resetting the target version back to 1.5 - bug 375023 comment #12.

Thanks John, that was exactly the problem, and your suggestion fixed it.
