wyupdate.exe wants to stop wyupdate.exe before installing

Most of the time, updates are working fine, but we are noticing recently that wyupdate.exe is requiring wyupdate.exe to quit, and is causing the update to fail. We are updating from a service, and wyupdate is not running already (I have a copy of the running processes, if you want to verify.)

Any idea of what would cause this? Are you supposed to include the wyupdate file in the update or exclude it? Could that be why?

You need to exclude wyUpdate.exe from wyBuild. It will warn you if you try to include wyUpdate.exe

My guess is that wyUpdate.exe is running in a separate use session on the same machine (and that's why the wyUpdate.exe you're running from your Windows Service is reporting the process as running).

Heads up that that check must be based on name. Maybe using the file hash would be better? We never got that warning as we rename our file to "update.exe" as we try and keep things as whitelabel as possible.

I will repush old updates without that and see if it fixes it. I do know that other processes were not trying to update, but I will see if it helps.
