Is your problem with a custom hosted version of wyUpdate and you're using the %updatepath% variable as the download site? Or are you just using the updatepath variable for your updates and it fails when wyUpdate self updates?
Hello, I have a problem with the wyUpdate self update. I use wyUpdate & automaticupdater 2.6.11.3 to update my application. AutomaticUpdater executes the wyUpdate with some arguments like: "-server="http://xxx/yyy.wys" -updatepath="http://xxx/"". Everything is OK until I want to update the wyUpdate. If I publish the 2.6.13 version on our servers (it's the 2.6.13 original version), wyUpdate throw the error: "Could not parse the URL "%updatepath%/xys.wyu" - it's either malformed or is an unknown protocol.". The problem is I think that the -updatepath argument is not sent after wyUpdate updates and re-run (I am unable to verify because the wyUpdate closes immediately after the error).
This problem occurs only if I use NT Service (using automaticupdater.dll). If I run the wyUpdate manually with the same arguments as the AutomaticUpdater.dll, everything is OK.
Could you please help me.
Thank you.

Hello, No, the error occurs at the updatepath variable for the updates.
Do you know any problem using the updatepath variable in the custom hosted url? I will use this feature after I solve this error 🙂.
Thank you.
This shouldn't cause an error -- I'll look into this.
A small correction: I use the automaticupdaterbacked (not automaticupdater) since is a windows service.
I wait an answer from you.
Since this problem is urgent, If it helps, I can make a quick team viewer in order to show you the problem.
Thank you.
Sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner. We duplicated this error and we're fixing it along with a few other bugs. We're trying to get a release out by the end of this week.
We've fixed this in wyBuild 2.6.14 now out.
This shouldn't cause an error -- I'll look into this.
Hello, I am unable to use updatepath variable in the custom hosted url. As you said this should work, but it seams that the wyUpdate ignore my updatepath variable. I set the custom hosted url to http://%updatepath%/xxxxx.wys and the download sites to http://%updatepath%/wyupdate/%file%. The updatepath variable is ignored in both cases using wyUpdate self hosted (if I change to custom hosted url to a static url - whitout updatepath variable - it throws me an error for the download sites).
Could fix this in order to work the updatepath variable in the self hosted url and in the download sites url?
Thank you.
I'll look into this.
Yes, we'll fix this in either 2.6.15 or 2.6.16
wyBuild 2.6.16 is now out -- this bug is fixed.
