I released MozUpdate 1.4.0 today. If you frequently install builds of any Mozilla application on a Windows machine, you should give it a look.

Re: No subject
Try downloading MozUpdate again. The error message suggests that your download didn't succeed.

Re: Same error...
I've downloaded and tested MozUpdate on several different machines, each running Windows XP, and it works fine.
Re: Same error...
I'm using Windows XP Professional, but without SP1....
Re: Same error...
I really think your browser must have cached the corrupt download or something.
Re: Same error...
Very odd, I'll try different downloading tools to download it (ex. wget) and I'll let you know....
Re: Same error...
Thanks, sweet tool. One question though: Say I make it upgrade Firebird to a nightly build everynight for example, could I get it to transfer my plugins and such while it installs the new build, also, when it closes the Firebird windows it has open, could it bookmark all the tabs open in a folder with the date on it. (ex. a folder called 10/12/03)....
Thanks
Re: Same error...

Re: Same error...
So wonko...Think its possible? Gimme ur thoughts on this...
Re: Same error...
In NSIS, the only reliable way to detect whether an application is running is to determine whether or not that application's window is loaded. Unfortunately, all the Mozilla apps (this includes the App Suite, Firebird, and Thunderbird) use the same name (MozillaWindowClass) for their main application windows. This is why, even when you're just upgrading Thunderbird but you have a Firebird browser window running, MozUpdate will warn you that you should close Thunderbird before continuing.
MozUpdate can tell that you have a Mozilla application running, so it shows the warning just to be safe, but it can't tell for sure which Mozilla application is running. It would really suck if you were upgrading Thunderbird and MozUpdate "helpfully" closed all your Firebird windows for you.
However, I've been toying with some plans for command line options to allow MozUpdate to be run in a batch job or on a schedule, and I can see where a command line option to have MozUpdate automatically close the apps before upgrading them might work. Bookmarking all active tabs would be a little harder, but could probably be done by sending window messages to the browser window -- although again, we run into the problem of MozUpdate having no way of knowing which window is which.
I'll keep this stuff in mind though. Thanks.

lucidia?
Re: Same error...
Ahh, I see what you mean. Yeah, command line switches for scheduled runs is cool. Thanks for the info....
Version for Linux any time soon?
This sound like a great app. Any plans to make a version for Linux in the near future? Thanks, wish I was a software engineer too so I could help. ah oh well, keep up the good work.
Re: Version for Linux any time soon?
A short shell script would do the trick in Linux, although it wouldn't be as pretty. But no, I don't have any plans to write one. Sorry.
Re: Version for Linux any time soon?
All right, thanks!
Re: Version for Linux any time soon?
Well thanks for telling me that can be done, I found http://getmoz.mozdev.org/ and it sounds like what I want/need
