Error -7 after native update

[Jambon28]

Hi, and congrats for this great plugin !

Problem

After installing a native update (in config.xml : same id with new version and android-versionCode attributes), hcp returns error -7 : Can't copy files from previous release to the new release.

Steps to reproduce

1. install a native version 1.0 of an app : version="1.0.0" and android-versionCode="10"
2. make hcp update its code version
3. close the app
4. compile a new version 1.1 : same id, version="1.1.0" and android-versionCode="11"
5. install this new version 1.1 on the device :
   => hcp detects correct new native version (1.1)
   => hcp detects current and old hcp releases ("current web version" and "previous web version"). Is this normal ? I understand it should not, as we have a new native version
   => hcp downloads a new code version (this is ok)
   => hcp fails to install the new code version : error -7 "can't copy files from previous release to the new release"

System info

Platform : Android 4.4.2
Cordova 6.3
HCP lastest (just built with git url)
Built with PhonegapBuild

This seems to be a bug, as native version update (through appstore) is impossible. The only way is to uninstall the app before installing the new native version.

Am i wrong somewhere ?

thanks for you help

Hi again,

After some more tests, it seems that this issue was because hcp code update for v1.1 was the same as hcp code update for v1.0 (same content_url).

With different code updates (content_url), it is ok.

Anyway it should not happen (as i understand the update workflow). It may be still a bug, but a minor bug.

For instance, if someone compiles a new native version for a minor plugin update, the whole cordova plugins JS API could be the same, and the JS code (hcp code) could stay exactly the same.

Hi,

There is a PR #225 with a fix for this problem. Although, I think the problem is in some other place. Will investigate and get back to you.

Fix released in v1.5.2.
