Squirrel.windows: Invalid release entry: [string that doesn't exist in local or remote releases]

Created on 11 Mar 2018  路  4Comments  路  Source: Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows

Every time my app tries to update, I get the following error:
Invalid release entry: F260B78230EF6604DCA0B9F8863F97052204AFCA

The release entry string doesn't exist on the server RELEASES or the local RELEASES file in AppData.

Has anyone else encountered this?

I've just gotten a similar issue using the latest version of Squirrel. My message was "Invalid Release Entry 1C1D2C4FF29523CD68018C5B699187338AF9C04E T3RRA Design.exe.shaum 39936"

I'm going to try renaming the .exe to not include a space and see if that helps (reading other issues (#1420) that seems to have helped - but was also meant to be fixed..)
Edit: Renaming fixed the problem.

Here is my update code:

UpdateInfo update = await mgr.CheckForUpdate();
    if (update.ReleasesToApply.Count > 0) {
        MainForm.IsUpdating = true;

        await mgr.DownloadReleases(update.ReleasesToApply);
        await mgr.ApplyReleases(update);
    }

@greyivy are you still experiencing this issue with the latest version of Squirrel?

@shiftkey this can be closed as a duplicate of #713 as this kind of errors happens when a space is involved in filenames.
