Parse Error #18

When an update is available instead of installing the new package, the 
following error message appears:

Parse Error:
There is a problem parsing the package.

The notification works fine but after pressing "Select to Install" it fails. 
Installing the new package manually, either via the download link 
http://www.auto-update-apk.com/download/<app-name> or via eclipse, works fine.

I have no idea what should be wrong in the manifest. It works perfectly when 
installing normally.

could you please check if the original package has the same MD5 sum as shown in 
the log message?

also, it would be helpful to know, what kind of device and version of Android 
is used.

I think I just figured it out. I used whitespaces in the filename of the .apk 
file, this does not seem to work. The MD5 Sum was indeed correct though.

Thx anyway.

Once there was a bug about whitespaces, it's supposed to be fixed now.

Please, make sure you're using the latest version of Android client source code.

Whitespaces should show up as %20 in the filenames on Android.

I just reproduced it again; I was using the latest version. Whitespaces are 
indeed replaced by %20 but that seemed to have caused that parsing error. 
Replacing the whitespaces with underscore solved the problem for me.

Thank you for detailed report, could you please also tell which android version 
do you use, since I've checked on ICS and %20 replacement worked fine. Then I 
can look into this issue more closely.

I'm using CyanogenMode-7.1.0 which is based on Android 2.3.7 on a HTC Desire.

I have this problem too!

On my 2nd app, no problem, but my first one causes parsing issues while trying 
to update

Marko,

does your application by any chance have spaces or other funny characters in 
the file name?

No. But I fixed the issue.
After reinstalling the app, the problem is gone

this looks very strange, like several different threads are trying to get 
updates at the same time. could you please check you have instantiated the 
AutoUpdateAPK class preferably in Application subclass or in Activity that has 
only one copy running at the same time?

In Launcher-Class I initialized the updater. I want to start the Updater 
manually from the context-menü. What can I do to check, if an Update-check is 
already running? aua.updateRunning()?



    private AutoUpdateApk aua;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
[...]
        // Updater
        aua = new AutoUpdateApk(getApplicationContext());
        aua.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_update);
        aua.enableMobileUpdates();
}
[...]
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.iUpdate:
            aua.checkUpdatesManually();
            break;
[...]

What was the resolution for this error?  I am getting the same behavior but I 
don't see a resolution in this thread. 

Thanks,

Matt,

please check to see if your .apk file name contains spaces and other funny 
characters besides [A-Za-z0-9_.] ? Replacing spaces with underscores should fix 
the problem. Otherwise, please, tell us the Android version you're using?

Hello,
I have the same problem which says "There is a problem parsing the package". I 
get this error after i select the notification which is been triggered. There 
are no blank spaces or unwanted characters in the file name. Sometimes i get 
this error only for the first time after i install the application, but works 
well from the second time. Any workaround for this would be of great help.
I am testing in android 4.0.4.

Thanks in advance.
