[blendeag]

Hello,

Thank you for the update on the issue and thank you for the work you’ve put into finding the cause.

However, the extensions still not updating, you said you were aware of it and will update in the next release but failed to acknowledge and respond to my request for technical information on what is causing that so I can try to see if I can patch it on my end or not, or at least observe and better understand what’s going on. Please share that information so I can keep digging on my end, if for nothing more than to understand and who knows I might be able to help in some way.

The short explanation for why extension update doesn’t work at this time would be this:

@sergey.chumak post:1

• FIXED issue where Dragon comunicated with Google servers on launch.

The communication with the Google servers was performed through a generic function which has been blocked in the current release. Unfortunately that function also managed the extension updates among other things. The issue has been fixed on our side so the next release will have working extension updates.

HOWEVER, still NO DRAGON UPDATER LOGS, that HAS NOT changed. Just so you know. Not sure why, but we can’t get updater to generate a log if lives depended on it.

The dragon_updater issue looks like another kind of beast…

NO matter what the issue is, shouldn’t the updater create a log?

As long as the update service is running, it should write to the log file. It logs all update checks, service start and service stop.

Could you run Process Monitor and restart the update service? It will attempt to create the log file during this operation and it might also tell us why it fails.

Regards.
