wyUpdate already supports automatic redirects. Make sure your webserver is correctly return a 301 or 307 "error code" along with the new address. A quick way to test it is top copy & paste the URL used in wyUpdate in Internet Explorer and see if it works. First clear the cache to make sure you're not getting cached data.
Auto update and IIS Redirect
We have been using wyUpdate now for a while and have been using the same url for our update files. We are now moving from http to https. We have rules set up in IIS to do the redirect to https when a user types in the url, but that does not appear to be working when the updater tries to find the file.
Without pushing out a new client.wyc file is there a way to get the updater to redirect properly? Is there something perhaps in our IIS rule that we need to do so the client file will redirect until we fix it in our next release?
I plan to put both addresses in the next release, but we need a resolution before that (obviously the updates can't get the new client file if they can't find the proper website).
Thanks!
