3.7a3 Software Update Results
Note: If I heard correctly at the Firefox status meeting, I believe all updates for this release will be complete updates. If that is the case some of the information below will not apply.
How to Test Partial, Complete, and Fallback Updates
To test partial, complete, and fallback updates:
- Partial: This refers to testing an update from the immediate last release, in this case going from Alpha 2 to Alpha 3
- Complete: This is checked by going from 3.7 Alpha 1 as by the fallback scenario.
- Fallback: For this you first get whatever update the usual way, but you don't apply it. Then you test that it can get fetch another copy of the update if something were to go wrong. You do this by:
- Checking for updates. Choose to apply later. Close application.
- Then go the C:\Documents and Setting\<user profile>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates\0\ folder, in WinXP for instance. Inside you will find a file called 'update.status'.
- If you are in Vista the update.status file will be in ...AppData/Local/Mozilla Firefox/updates/0/
- Open it with a text editor and replace the string from pending to 'failed:6'. Restart the app and make sure you get another copy of the update.

- Notes: The update billboard spells "Developer Preview" twice. Bhearsum is fixing now.
- Also, the text within the updating.. dialog window does not fit because of the long name. But i assume this will go away after Preview is changed.
