Installation procedure Android OKKish and iOS Fails + WKWebview crashes

[barocsi]

Android:

I have the following order of events when I update something on Android,
on first run it says installation is ready to be updated
then nothing happens
I dont quit the app, just deactivate
I deactivate the app, then it navigates to the stored old version
I get an event that chcp_updateInstalled
and it works...is this the intended behavior?

iOS, WKWebview:

I simply get an error, for the same manifest that wors for Android:
++++++++++++++++++ to chcp_updateLoadFailed – CustomEvent {detail: {error: {code: -4, description: "Hash c22cc828ab432172b069b4cddb4b435c of the file …tch the checksum 10f6bae1011fe6816fbd7affa1915cfe"}}, clipboardData: undefined, initCustomEvent: function, …}

UPDATE

after a successful installation of update, download and reload of page in cordova debugger I can see
2016-05-02 16:23:16.720 App[778:963626] WkWebView crash detected, recovering...

Ok this is another good experience for the others, it seems my server is caching certain files, so the hashes will eventually fail.

What do you mean by deactivate?

Depends on the preferences in chcp.json file. There's a preference, called update. By default it is set to start, which means that update will be installed when application is launched. If you want the app to update immediately - set it to now, or start installation process manually from JS side.

Good catch 👍

deactivate means minimizing it.
Another issue arisen after a successful update for ios wkwebview I receive an app.html not found. It happens not all the time. I continue to inspect this issue.
This build is using https://github.com/Telerik-Verified-Plugins/WKWebView

I have added "update":"now" to chcpbuild.options, but it not gets copied into chcp.json.

[nikDemyankov]

chcpbuild.options is used only to set preferences in platform-specific config.xml file. More details can be found here.

update preference should go to chcp.json file, that is placed on the server, because it defines the behaviour of the plugin with this particular release.

If you have created cordova-hcp.json file - then put it in there. For example:

{
  "content_url": "https://myserver.com/www/",
  "release": "2015.09.05-12.20.15",
  "update": "now"
}

UPDATE:

In that case - when you will execute cordova-hcp build - it will be placed automatically into chcp.json.

[barocsi]

That was really my fault, i have misconfigured it in the options file.
I will give feedback on the WKWebview issue asap.

According to the previous hash problem. You need to pay attention to this
http://superuser.com/questions/377743/same-file-different-file-size
it might generate different hash sizes. I mean, you generate the hashes on WIN copy in text transfer to a NIX and the resulting file size will be different ergo malformed checksum will be the result.

Is auto-install crash related to #140 ?

[nikDemyankov]

As you already found out - currently plugin supports on iOS only cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine, not teleriks version. Issue for telerik support is already added: #98

[barocsi]

Thanks. In other thread I was wondering meanwhike can I use v1.1.2 for iOS.

[nikDemyankov]

Answered in there :) Check the links I provided there and decide. But in my opinion - changes are quite big since v1.1.2. I will try to make a quick fix tomorrow, might work.

[barocsi]

That would be awesome. You are great!

[nikDemyankov]

I've created a branch with possible fix for telerik plugin. But it will work only if your index page doesn't have # in the url. But I suspect that's should be fine in your case.

To install the plugin use the following command:

cordova plugin add https://github.com/nordnet/cordova-hot-code-push.git#telerik-wkwebview-fix

@nikDemyankov thanks a lot, saves the day!
