After starting wyUpdate.exe (I suppose this is a file I should be letting my users download to get the application), I get this error:
Could not parse the URL "www.mysite.com/test/wyserver.wys" - it's either malformed or is an unknown protocol.
The file is the same as the local copy of wyserver.sys (354 bytes long binary something)
wyUpdate is expecting the url in the form "http://www.mysite.com/test/...." instead of "www.mysite.com/test/....". We should've made that clearer when your build your updates. I apologize.
The problem was that server did not serve .wys files (a more descriptive error message in case of 404 returned from server would help).
If you're using IIS then you can work around this by adding *.wys and *.wyu filetypes as "application/octet-stream". This should fix the 404 errors.
If you can't change the IIS config, then you can rename the files by going to File->Properties->Updates & server files & change the file extensions to ".zip". This should work without problem.
Now after running wyUpdate.exe, I get
Error trying to save file: Error downloading "ftp://site.com/test/wyserver.wys": The remote server returned an error: (530) Not logged in.
Can I specify username and password into the wyBuild script?
Yes, "ftp://username:password@site.com/test/...."
