[Solved] Wep Updater error

#1 Post by Goha »

I'm trying to use web updater and I don't know much about ftp or web hosting.

My update file was uploaded to the Amazon web server. All files uploaded to AWS are public and can be read by anyone.

When I turn on the game and run the updater, I get an error message saying 'The update file was not downloaded.'
There is no problem checking the updated version. The problem occurs at the stage of downloading the update file.

What's wrong with this? I want to know how to solve this problem.

Can you post the log from the update directory?

This is my log. It may have changed from the original line because I added some print functions.
Thank you for your kindness.

Thank you very much! The update proceeds successfully.
But there is another problem... When I restart the program after the update, an exception is thrown.
Attach a trackback.

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00updater.rpy", line 23, in script
    init -1500 python in updater:
  File "renpy/common/00updater.rpy", line 120, in <module>
    process_deferred()
  File "renpy/common/00updater.rpy", line 103, in process_deferred
    l = l.decode("utf-8")
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x9c in position 10: invalid start byte

-- Full Traceback ------------------------------------------------------------

Full traceback:
  File "renpy/common/00updater.rpy", line 23, in script

I believe that error was fixed at some point during the 7.4 series.
