this is my output after the regenerate.php call.
it can't be my problem packaging the files, though 3 of the 4 packages are the samples ones. maybe there is something wrong with my config file?

Well its not working because. For Example Pictoore-1 has 3 items inside the folder. install.png,install.plist and the picture. your going to want to Compress all 3 items in the folder so its all 3 items are a .zip and you do not need the pictore-1 folder anymore. and after you compress the 3 items it wwill be an archive.zip you can rename it.

i don't understand you. they are already compressed...

What can I do?
Thank you!

almost every problems linked with DOM* are caused by the wrong version of PHP. It requires PHP 5.

А почему нет русского блога? считаю неуважением к соотечественникам!

?!?

systemator: на русском мы общаемся на форуме iPhones.ru. Никакого неуважения, просто не хочется писать два раза одно и то же на разных языках.

For systemator are a little bit OT..

Systemator said: "Why not Russian blog? feel contempt of compatriots!"

If everyone'd write in russian don't you think that only you could understand each other? I'm italian, but i write in English.

No understanding = no communication = no Internet.
Don't you agree with that?

Cheers

I have a problem with installer. While installing my software it says "com.apptapp.installer error 3". WTF?

I get the same error as time travel, using the sample packages provided. why is that?

@catcher..we are in some with the same problem..i don't think is a problem with us..

I guess this might be an issue with the php function for unzipping, it might be disabled.. will check it out now

I found out that error is caused by the shell_exec function, when it is disabled. I think we should enable it, otherwise PHP will never be able to unzip anything!

ah-ah! I solved the problem. The issue is the PHP Safe Mode being turned ON. If you turn it on, shell_exec (and a bunch of other functions) are automatically disabled, so PHP cannot execute zip extraction processes.

To solve, just turn PHP Safe Mode Off from the setup page on your server or domain admin :)

/n.

i cannot find this option nowhere

@error_catcher i found the safe_mode value but is already set to off..

then you must have the shell_exec function disabled, google how to enable it, should be pretty easy :)

@error_catcher i can't do that..

@time: then u have to ask your server maintainer to do it or change server

/n.

is there a free server which i can use?

timetravel

you can use my repo if you want ;)

you only have to give me de .zip files ;)

Alex at hackers.nl

repo going to be www.hackers.nl/repo4

Alex,

albertdt6: looks like your Info.plist is not a plain XML file after you have edited it. Maybe your editor saved it in binary format, which PHP doesn't knows how to handle.

All others: looks like error_catcher noted (thanks, btw!) there are problems with the unzip function... I'll look how it can be improved/replaced. There's ZipArchive available in PEAR, but not everyone have that installed as well.

Regarding DOMDocument::load, I am still looking for the cause.

rip dev ;)

and what means com.apptapp.install error 3 ?
i get that with an package ;)

Alex,

Ow and another issue ;)

it seems that the installer can't copy stuf in an directoy with spaces in it?

alex i can help you for this..for the OS in iPhone is UNIX like if you have a directory with spaces like "first app/" you have to write it like this: "first\ app/".
hope it can help you

RipDev: I got it working (the unzip problem). At least on my OS (Windows), the problem was, that Windows has no UNZIP command. I downloaded UNZIP binaries for Windows (freeware) from Sourceforge, and placed them on my root directory, and it worked perfectly.

chekc you email ;)

i'm a unix dude but i think the xml structure is different from the installer 2/3 version
i get strange error's on Exec and CopyPath things ;)

maybe i find out why is happening...compressing a folder in MAC you get a lot of temp files __MACOSX etc.

trying compressing in Linux and send feedback as soon as i can.

Ok i go crazy i try to copy something in /System/Library/Carrier Bundles/
with installer4 xml package

xml code ;)

CopyPath
/var/root/package
"/System/Library/Carrier Bundles/"


Exec
"/bin/ln -s /System/Library/Carrier Bundles/package /System/Library/Carrier Bundles/20408"

and then ik get the stupid error

com.apptapp.installer error 3?

whats wrong?

nope..still remains this problem

slash at the end of Path?

mmm nope the copy thing has a / at the end and the symlink Exec is not allowed with / at the end..

no one discovered anything about the extraction problem of Install.plist

Timetravel, If you're using Windows, the problem is that there's no unzip command. Download unzip form sourceforge and try again.

I can't get most of my stuff to download and install. I either get com.apptapp.installer error 3, error 5 or a problem with the script (on the EXEC command).

i use MacoOSX 10.5...and my website is hosted by tophost.it

I have created my repository and when I run regenerate it says it completed and loads of stuff. i'm bit stuck what to do now?

I've tried the repo in installer 4 however it says :

"ERROR CANNOR DECODE RAW DATA"

Also it says add ?debug=1 to the site. I tried that in firefox and got a message about "Content Encoding Error"

Hi RiP Dev,

Would it be possible to add to the post explaining the error 3 problem? There are quiet of few of us here that are experiencing the same problem.

Here's what I've found so far...

I hosted the test package and it worked fine on my server. But when I unzip that folder, and rezip that folder back up, it starts giving me the error 3 problem.

I tried to unzip/zip on windows/unix/mac os, but everything seems to give me the same problem.

Furthermore, it seems like when I post my own zipped package on my repo, it is affecting other packages on my repo as well. I tested this with pictoore-1 and pictoore-2, where I unzipped/zipped pictoore-1 and left pictoore-2 untouched. After indexing, pictoore-1 will give me error 3 without installation pictoore-2 will install, but still give me the error 3 after installation. I can verify that pictoore-2 is installed correctly because I can uninstall it.

This is a strange problem and I've run out of ideas. Would it be possible to post the details of the steps you've taken to zip up the package?

Can you get your repo to view in installer?

I cant even get that far.

Yes, I can get my repo to show up. It works perfectly, I just followed the instructions. I used their sample packages and I can install/uninstall without a hitch.

It's only when I put on my own package I ran into error3...

This is what I did.

Uploaded folder to my site into a folder called repo

so I now have www.website.co.uk/repo

edited the conf file.

define('PACKAGES_PATH', "./repo/packages");

define('PACKAGES_PATH_URL', "http://www.website.co.uk/repo/packages/");

define('INFO_PATH', "./repo/info");
define('INFO_PATH_URL', "http://www.website.co.uk/repo/info/");
define('REGENERATE_SECRET', 'SECRET');

I then CHMOD info to 777

in packages I created a folder called mod and uploaded a sample program.

I then run the regenerate.php file with the secret command and it says all done. Loads of stuff now in info folder.

I am stuck now. I have added www.website.co.uk/repo/ to installer it doesn't work

"ERROR CANNOR DECODE RAW DATA"

Also it says add ?debug=1 to the site. I tried that in firefox and got a message about "Content Encoding Error"

Instead of ./repo/packages and ./repo/info, try just ./packages and ./info

Let me know if that works....

I tried that originally. still the same.

Should you be able to browse the repo folder in IE, firefox etc?

I guess it depends on your server settings. But you should be able to see everything in ftp. It should have generated a bunch of plist files in your info folder.

Yeah it has done this.

I am having a different problem. The Install.PNG file is not extracted correctly from the zip files, and I end up with a 1KB file instead of the original PNG file.

still no one knows about the Install.plist extraction problem?

After running regenerate.php i get this error:

Class 'DOMDocument' not found in ....regenerate.php on line 95

what can i do? :(

managed to get installer to see my stuff now and all work.

However I modified the install.plist to see I can get the files copied else where. All I get now is install 3 errors. Same as Bo. I think I need a sample file from an app already written for installer 4.

win2000b, try the original sample package with no modification. Put pictoore-1 and pictoore-2 on there. Verify that those work fine.

If that's the case, then you're seeing my exaaaact problem. =)

Can somebody help me make a repo please. Email me at nadim@ukani.net.

Alos can somebody post a link to the timetravel program.

Hi, Great to see the source code! I started work as soon as I saw it. The only problem is. I have a few apps I wanna put on (the demo ones worked great), but when i add them and do the regenerate thing, It says It can't find the .plist file. I knew it wasn't there, but i hoped it might make itself when i ran the script thingy. But obviously, it didn't. So, how do i add the .plist file to the zip file? Do i make it in notepad? If you could help it'd be great Rip DEV.

Oh, and before I forget, how does installer know where to put the files once the user installs them? Do i need to put that info somewhere? Thanks.

Brad. :)

How about reading the included documentation (like everybody else), or analizing the sample applications to see how they work (that why they are being incuded in the package). The included document is self explanatory, and the rest of the info can be easily be found online.

Well i've been trying but thanks for your "smart" comment

Was that at me jasch98? If so, thanks! I never thought to actually extract them ^^ All ok now, I'll sort the rest out tomorrow, :D

OK, i upgraded to PHP 5.2.6... now i get this when adding zip packages:

Generating index for firmware 2.0.
Scanning category 'Winterboard Themes'...


Fatal error: Class 'ZipArchive' not found in /web/htdocs/www.makkiaweb.net/home/repo/regenerate.php on line 312

SO? WHATS WRONG?! :(

hi
i know this is kinda offtopic, but i dont know where else to ask this...
how do i remove a package that i installed with installer 4?

this is my output after the regenerate.php call.
it can't be my problem packaging the files, though 3 of the 4 packages are the samples ones. maybe there is something wrong with my config file?

--------------------------------------

Try to upgrade to PHP 5.2.5 or 5.2.6 it should solve your problem....

Go to the Installed Applications Folder.... Select The App.... Uninstall on top right

@ifonrossi: i found out that is a problem with the server in which you're hoating the repo. i fixed that creating a webserver with XAMPP on my machine. everything work just fine now. if you're in troubles feel free to send me an email: daniele.lando@danyelle.it

lol thanks... really didnt see that one :P

Ok i think installer 4 is far from beta ;)

Every package you create and put it in to te repo sometimes it get installed correct next time
you get an com.apptapp.installer error 3

or an Exec failure..

or if ripddev can tell me what this error means?
i can't figure this out.

Alex,

WHAT IS THIS?? xDxD
This is driving me MAD!!

Can you guys post a repo for installer on cydia because i'm killing myself without it

Why does it get set to 771 and not 755 or 777

@Scoot: it's not nice talking about cydia here, don't you think?
however if you can't do with installer i'm sure you won't with cydia.
it's more difficult to do..and you have to know anything about Linux, Debian, etc. Do you? If so google it!

Ok just call me stupid but can someone explain something

i made an easy test package just to copy something ;)

installer sees the package ;) i installed it installer says nothing ;) i presume it's ok?
check if the file is in de specifed dir nothing?

i do een CopyPath thing ;)

no errors nothing whats wrong?

Why this, in .xml is correctly ok but in .plist give me an error in Installer 4. Why?
Rip Dev, thank you for all!

One more thing: I have one package in my repository and when I go to get information (Info-1.0-2.0.plist)in the Installer 4 tells me:

Unable to decode package more info at http://myrepository.com/info/Info-1.0-2.0.plist).

Have you got any solutions?
Thank you!

(note: all the files are in the correct permisions)

Was able to fix all the errors etc, added the source and saw my .app

However if I try to add it, my iphone freezes up causing me to crash.
Anyone know why this is happening?

Also what should I put at the bottom of the CopyPath?

why do some of the sources I installed in community sources have locks over them? also why do i get an error that says bad url, or unable to decode package when i try to install anything.

when I have installed community sources ist take a longtime to refresh about 5-10 minutes and than wenn it's finish all ok.
But if I remove the CommunitySource all Sources and all Packages still there not removed.

(i have package "pictoore-1.zip" in /packages/*category name*/)

Please, do work on scrolling speed. Current list scrolling speed in Installer is unacceptable :( Is it because of the custom icons?

It was problem with web server.
Now i'm fighting with "WARNING: Cannot add package ./packages/Darkness's Tweaks/Volume.zip because Install.plist cannot be extracted."

Thank you

Please help. Every time I try to load installer it gets stuck trying to refresh the first source and since it refreshes automatically now, I cannot do anything with this program. Is there a way to delete it through ssh and re-download it? Thanks a lot. Please email me at joeg679@aol.com

Than others , i have a problem with refresh .

Installer is not lock during the refresh but the refresh work badly so you have just to wait 3-4 minutes and installer will work fine after .

Good job but please we need beta 6 to correct this problem quickly .

Thanks ;)

So, I recently installed Installer — and then thought I'd try one of the programs listed, biteSMS. Well, I found out it's not my cup of tea, but now I can't uninstall it. I have gone through the Installer uninstallation process, but the application remains there.

What am I doing wrong to uninstall this? Is it a bug? Do I need to reinstall my iPhone? Help!

hello there installer team.

i've installed some stuff through installer4 and cannot UNinstall them. it shows me the progress bar and resprings after i close installer, but still the same package remains and works properly on my iphone.

please help me to uninstall them. i know i can SSH and do that but i want INSTALLER

same problem as above.... how do I get rid of the unwanted apps?

As some of you stated above the problem is with the automatic refresh. Some of the community sources load extremely slow and at least one of them is down completely. If you wait the 5-10 min then delete all of the sources except the rip dev source you can install each source 1 by 1 and see witch one times out. My advice would be to not install the community source. Oh btw disable autolock before using installer.

Hi All

Installer 4b5 don't uninstall applications.

We're doomed...

Here is the solution for the server with PHP4:

RiP Dev repo works with PHP version 5 If you have PHP4 and repo want to create is the error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method: domdocument-> load () in / home / xxx / xxxxx / xxxxxx / regenerate.php on line 96

Here is the Solution to resolve this error. You will need to PHP5 parsing PHP4.
* Create a ". Htaccess" file with editor
* Give them kod:

AddType x-mapp-php5. Php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5. Php

* And save the main directory of repo

hi

with this 2.x i m wondering where is the application installed in iphone from installer

as i checked in /stash/application but there are only installer.app,mail.app etc so where can i see my downloaded one application stay

please give me guide on this

I know it is not the exact topic of the entry, but I wonder if there is a way to install packages using the Installer but without WiFi?
I know that it was possible in previous versions of Installer (see iGopher).

Thanks.

After upgrade to new intaller version, wifi can´r establish any server contact. Only GPRS/3G can connect to internet. Same problem with two different devices. Both 3G with 2.0.1. Any hints?

One solution is modificating the php structure, here it is:

http://rapidshare.com/files/140392526/regenerate.rar.html

This did it to me, changes are identified as Modification in the structure, read it so you know what is happening

I didn't modificated it, and I'm not responsable of any damages caused to the server because of it

Error unable to decode package more info at..: This error shows that message and our url twice, this is due because now in config.inc we don't have to modify anything in package path, or info path, just modificate the repository url at the beggining

Hope this would help

@Java

i get the same problem as you.... found a solution?

i have two iphones: the 2g and the new one - 3g-
boths i have upgraded for 2.0.2
now i cant install with the installer anything on the both items there is a notice:
"unable to decode package!"
with the 2cydia2 it does not work , too---------------
so whats up?

apptapp error is when u dont zip in linux.

But why do i get failed script command on line 1: CopyPath for so many packages?

How do we chmod?

I tried this:

Exec
/bin/chmod -R 755 /Myfolder

But i get errors.

Does anybody know what the package identifier would be for a package that is located @
abouttheiphone.100webspace.net/www/repo/packages/abouttheiphone/fallout3.zip
or
abouttheiphone.100webspace.net/www/repo/packages/abouttheiphone/installer.zip
All help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there!
So I right now i am playing with getting some winterboard themes to install, I have a folder that needs to go to: [b]/Library/Themes/Folders/MobileSafari.app[/b] but Installer refuses to do that any way i try to.. very frustrating as you might imagine, i tried with the normal [b]copy path[/b] command (get an error: [b]failed script command on line 2: copy[/b]) tried it the weird way with [b]exec /bin/cp[/b] (even tried doing this recursively and get [b]failed script command on line 2: Exec[/b], and if i don't get those i get [b]com.apptapp.installer error 3[/b]
So I figured it must be the . in the copy path but even without the . in the filename i get the same errors.

The strange thing is that with the failed copy part of the files do get copied.. it therefore seems that installer is not happy with a folder containing several folders?

anyway, please tell me how to fix this, i am going quite mental over it and any help with it would be highly appreciated!

Also I am wondering about the progress, it has been quite a while since the beta release and imho the way installer is now it is not ready for a "gold" release... actually i am waiting for a new update, any timeline on that?

and then maybe the most important thing: when are we getting some script reference? it is very difficult to figure out that a big script is not working because of a space in a filepath when the filepath on the iPhone DOES have that space in it... and it might be handy to know what commands we can and what we cannot use.

I do hope there will be some fixes soon as i hate cydia bigtime but it seems more and more like that wll have to be the way to go.. scary thought!
