I was updating from wyBuild 2.5.0.0 to (I assume) 2.5.3, but wyBuild just indefinitely tries to download the update. Can I just install the full 2.5.3 overtop of 2.5.0.0? I assume it will keep my key and project file settings if I do so.
Yes, you can download the installer and it will upgrade fine (all your settings and projects will be untouched).
We're going to look into this problem with the AutoUpdater. We've had a couple other reports of problems and we're narrowing down the cause right now.
Sorry about this.
After doing an in line update. I still get an update error. It doesn't stall indeffinately, but I get a debug dialog box instead.
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for thisapplication or computer (machine.config) must have thejitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.The application must also be compiled with debuggingenabled.
For example:
<configuration> <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" /></configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exceptionwill be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computerrather than be handled by this dialog box.
It's a bug in the self-update algorithm (when wyUpdate updates itself). We're going to try to get the fixed version out by Tuesday.
I'm truly sorry.
Both of these problems are fixed (both stalling and the crash) in wyBuild 2.5.5.
