1226215 - Can't update apps on the device using the reload (install and run) button

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools Graveyard :: WebIDE, defect)

Description

[Chris Mills [:cmills]]

A new problem has now appeared on WebIDE (See also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1226164 for previous status.)

When I connect WebIDE to my Xperia foxfood phone, the Toolbox appears to open successfully. However, now I can't update apps using the reload (install and run) button - it gives me the message

"Operation failed: launching/reloading app: Error: Not running".

I also can't see the app directory structure to view/edit the code. It just doesn't appear.

Also, if I close the toolbox down and try to reopen it, I am again presented with the "Can't connect to app..." message, as detailed in my previous bug.

Do you have a custom gaia? I can't explain all your errors whereas Yi-Fan was obvious.

No, I don't have any kind of custom Gaia running. Is there any way that I can just completely reset WebIDE, to try to flush out the problem?

Comment 4

[Chris Mills [:cmills]]

An update on this - I tried updating my dev environment on my windows test machine to see if it would work there, and got exactly the same error/result. This led me to believe that it is something on the device itself that is not behaving; I tried installing the latest nightly Aries build onto my phone, and this fixed the problem.

So it seems to be something in the latest OTA that caused this. I'm not sure if we should investigate this further, or just close this bug.

Comment 5

[J. Ryan Stinnett [:jryans] (Use needinfo, replies may be slow)]

From comment 4 this is resolved by a new build on the device.
