Hello,
I've tried to update from 3.6.83 to 3.6.84 and got message "Invalid extension update"

When looking at : "https://www.jevents.net/newupdates/package_jevents.xml"
it seems to refer to previous versions !?

Is it normal ?

Best regards,
Gilles

XML File :
<update>
<name>JEvents</name>
<clublevel>free</clublevel>
<description>JEvents Package Update</description>
<element>pkg_jevents</element>
<type>package</type>
<client>site</client>
<version>3.6.82</version>
<infourl title="JEvents">https://www.jevents.net/products-new/jevents</infourl>
<downloads>
<downloadurl type="full" format="zip">
https://www.jevents.net/newupdates/download/pkg_jevents_3.6.82.zip
</downloadurl>
</downloads>
<tags>
Other thing is that the update is also published to J3.10.x which should not happen.

i do not see a fault in the xml tough (https://www.jevents.net/newupdates/package_jevents.xml)

edit: There are some spaces around the download link in the xml, is that the problem?

v. 3.6.84 only applies to Joomla 4 or 5.

I just tested a Joomla 3.10.12 site with an update URL set to https://www.jevents.net/newupdates/package_jevents.xml and it correctly offered me version 3.6.82

I also tested a Joomla 4.4.3 site (a soon to be client!!!) which identified version version 3.6.84

Do you have problems with the actual upgrade?

What version of Joomla and PHP are you running?

Strange I`m on the extended support 3.10.20 and get the update offered.

edit: the full version name is "3.10.20-elts" maybe the -elts causes the problem?

ARGH !!

It appears we didn't update our update XML file to include Joomla 5.2

Give me an hour and it should work ok.
