Failed update
« on: 2014 December 24 09:04:11 »
Last night I opened PI and saw that I had six updates to install. Hit the Roger Dodger button and got a message that only five of the six were successful. Don't remember which one failed at this point. When I went up to resources and did a manual check for updates it gave me the, "No updates available," message. Should I just wait for the next auto update or is there another way to really force the issue?

Not that it makes me feel much better but at least I'm not alone with this problem.
Are you also running Windows 7 (64bit)?

Hi Charles,

I made a small mistake yesterday when I packed the latest update for Windows. The update error is harmless; your PixInsight installation has not been damaged in any way (our update system has self diagnostics to prevent these problems). Anyway I have fixed the package now, so you should receive an additional update to the FITS module, which should work without problems.

Happy Christmas and all the best for 2015!

Juan:  I posted the following to the other thread only moments before you posted the above:

[ Well... On a whim while reading this forum , I decided to open PI and lo and behold! there is 1 update file that appears to be the one that failed earlier.  This time it updated normally. 

I assume someone on the PI team jumped on this problem as soon as they heard about it and swiftly corrected the issue.  Whoever you are, Thanks! ]

Merry Christmas to all of you
