Hi QMAXX,

Regarding your issue, I finally manage to resolve your issue. It seems like when the POST data sending with CURL, the data that reach our app store become like this:

http://take.ms/eSRuU

See the 'amp;id'. The correct value should be just 'id'. I did further study on this PHP function 'http_build_query' and it seems like in certain PHP version, when this function attempt to 'concatenate' all the POST data, it use the character '&' instead of '&'. ( in my dev instance, the default value is '&' thus i did not hit this issue on my end ).

To resolve this issue, I've given a default value into this function call. Please see http://take.ms/NWK79

Now you should be able to update any apps from your EasySocial backend.

The same fix will be added into next release of EasySocial as well.

Hope this help and have a nice day

Hi there,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

Regarding your issue, I tried in my dev instance and I am able to update my apps. I then further check at your site and apparent when EasySocial attempt to curl to our app store, the required app id was missing from the curl request.

May i know if your server actually prevent outgoing curl request from posting data?

For now, I've manually download the blog app from our app store and install the manually on your site. Now your blog app is running on the latest version.

Please advise.

Good morning,

the error occurs with every ES App update and when reinstalling apps the folder remains empty.

I'm afraid I can't say what it is. But I don't think it's because I already had several server providers. And the mistake is always the same.

Happy Weekend

Hi there,

Thanks for the heads up on this one.

To be frank with you, if i recall correctly, we did not receive any report regarding not able to update app via ES social's backend in applications page but I will further check on this issue again from your site.

I will update you again on my finding regarding this issue.

Thank you for your understanding and your patience.
