My app will not update (-updatepath AutomaticUpdater)

Hi Wyatt.

I'm still facing huge problems with overriding the update path using the -updatepath=... command line argument:

1) I use the Automatic Updater on my main form

2) I programmatically set automaticUpdater1.wyUpdateCommandLine to:

-server="http://www.mysite.com/subfolder/wyserver.wys" -updatepath="http://www.mysite.com/subfolder"

3) In wyBuild I use the following download site:

%updatepath%/%file%

This is the only download site I've added, and it is marked "Both server and update site" (=the default).

When I run my app, checking for updates works very well. It checks my site and it reports that an update is available - everything is fine so far.

The problem arises when my app afterwards calls the automaticUpdater1.InstallNow() method (in response to the user clicking an "install"-button in the form).

Now the InstallNow() method *fails* with the following error description:

"Could not parse the URL "%updatepath%/product.demoreleasea.to.demoreleaseb.wyu" - it's either malformed or is an unknown protocol."

It seems to me that wyUpdate.exe somehow fails to properly expand the %updatepath%-variable with the -updatepath argument from the command line.

I'm pretty sure that I had this to work erlier, however at that time i used an FTP site ("ftp://...") and not "http://...".

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
