Electron-builder: Error: No update available, can't quit and install

Created on 22 Aug 2018  路  15Comments  路  Source: electron-userland/electron-builder


  • Version:
    "electron-builder": "^20.28.2"

    "electron-updater": "^3.1.1"
  • Target:
    Mac

    Recently I updated electron-builder from ^19.19.1 to the lastest version, ^19.19.1 worked very well but the lastest version failed.
    I see the log show follows:
    `

2018-08-22 17:10:01:838 info:Update has already been downloaded to /Users/mymac/Library/Application Support/MyApp/__update__/myapp-2.1.0.zip).
2018-08-22 17:10:01:848 warn:Error: No update available, can't quit and install
`
I saw the updates has been downloaded, but it can not be installed.
Look forward to your favourable reply.

Update: With electron-updater version 3.0.3 OSX updates work (May work with more recent releases as well, didn't test)

I invoke the quitAndInstall from the callback of the update-downloaded event like so:

autoUpdater.on('update-downloaded', info => {
  autoUpdater.quitAndInstall();
});

Yep...issue with the 3.1.x package(s). 3.0.3 works great.

This is happening to us on MacOS as well, very annoying :(

Downgrading electron-updater from 3.1.1 to 3.0.1 didn't help by itself, we also had to downgrade electron-builder from 20.27.1 to 20.22.0.

We didn't try if going back to 3.1.1 with 20.22.0 still works.

I'm not extremely familiar with the code, but at first glance it seems the problem comes from https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/commit/86d64c24eb480d92131d5691798cdff9d7926c3c#diff-2b9b61e9eb8d7c70588122422cd9b0e9R530

In this commit, the update-downloaded event is now emitted before setting up the server (which is done with calling taskOptions.done)

I have this bug as well, I use "electron-updater": "3.1.2", "electron-builder": "20.2.0" and "electron": "1.8.7" on macOS 10.13.6.

When the new version is already in cache, the quitAndInstall quits but fails to install, and everytime one tries to start again my app, it triggers the auto-updater, which prevents me from pushing an update entirely...

I'm not extremely familiar with the code, but at first glance it seems the problem comes from 86d64c2#diff-2b9b61e9eb8d7c70588122422cd9b0e9R530

That does indeed seem like a potential source of this issue.

@develar What do you think?

reneklacan picture reneklacan on 26 Sep 2018

The same here... seems we can't update mac users,... soooooo baaaaaaad

gseregni picture gseregni on 28 Sep 2018

As a workaround I'm setting autoUpdater.autoInstallOnAppQuit = true and asking the user to quit the app in a dialog... any updates on this?

Similar problem here. Still works on a Windows PC, though.

Yep...issue with the 3.1.x package(s). 3.0.3 works great.

Same for me. 3.0.4 works fine, but 3.1.x throws the described error.

However, if I wait a few seconds after the download has finished, the following message appears in my console:

Proxy server for native Squirrel.Mac is closed (was started to download <url to new version>)

If I wait with the call to autoUpdater.quitAndInstall(); until after that message appears, everything works fine. So, theoretically, I could try to delay that function call for a few seconds, but that doesn't seem like a good or stable solution. (You never know how long it takes on someone else's machine.)

(I also get this log message on 3.0.4 after a few seconds, but I can call autoUpdater.quitAndInstall(); without any errors at any time (before or after the message), whereas on 3.1.x I can only call it safely after the message, as I get the "No update available [...]" error otherwise.)

For now I'm sticking with 3.0.4. That seems better to me than trying to find some workaround. I hope this can get fixed soon, so I can upgrade back to the latest version.

@develar is there any way to remedy the situation if a user has a version with this bug?

I got it working on electron-updater - 4.0.6 and electron-builder - 20.36.2.
This is what i was doing before

autoUpdater.downloadUpdate().then(() => {
    autoUpdater.quitAndInstall(true, true);
}).catch(downloadError => {
    console.error(downloadError);
});

Because of some timing issue, i had to wait for update-downloaded to be fired and the call quitAndInstall and then i changed it to below code

autoUpdater.on('update-downloaded', (ev, info) => {
    autoUpdater.quitAndInstall(true, true);
});


autoUpdater.downloadUpdate().then(() => {
    console.log('wait for post download operation');
}).catch(downloadError => {
    console.error(downloadError);
});
