992222 - Hosted app is not updated after downloading and installing the update

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Marketplace Graveyard :: Integration, defect, P3)

Description

[Iulian Timis]

Attachment: app_update_install.png

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install an old version of a hosted app (I had installed Youzeek 1.6.7 on my Android tablet).
2. Load Apps page in FF31 and tap the Check for Updates link.
3. Tap to download the update and then Install it
4. Tap on "Done".

Expected results:
The update is installed.

Actual results:
The update is not installed. If we go to Settings->Apps->Youzeek you will notice that the app is the same version as before the update. Also, if we check again for Update, the update will be available again, and the user will be able to repeat the update process over and over again.

Notes/Issues:
Verified on FF31 (Android 4.2.1). In Aurora, after the update is downloaded and we try to install, "App not installed" message is displayed.
Attaching screenshot for this issue.

Krupa, was this what you encountered yesterday? Davor reverted his patch.

Oh nevermind - this is unrelated

Is this against the production apk factory service?
(yes, unless about:config was used to change the endpoint.)

This is not a 'always updating bug' in production. It was in stage, which I've fixed with the admin tool.

production:

    curl -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{ "installed":{"http://youzeek.com/youzeek.webapp":1394215812}}' https://controller.apk.firefox.com/app_updates

stage:

     curl -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{ "installed":{"http://youzeek.com/:1397838060}}' https://apk-controller.stage.mozaws.net/app_updates

Erm, I'm having trouble understanding this paragraph.  Can you elaborate?

(If it's in reference to bwalker's suggestion that this is a dupe of bug 955534, then note that bug 955534 does affect production, at least for MessageMe, per bug 955534, comment 0, which identifies the problem on the production server.)

Sorry.

As discussed in triage, I've tested Youzeek and it doesn't have the same problem as bug#955534.

So, we need to keep digging on hypothesis as to what is causing this app to not be updated.
