Solution

  • On slow connections you may hit the AU's timeout before the module is done downloading. Try going into the [updater] section of host.ini and increasing the value of the "auto_check_delay" setting.
  • Obtain an up-to-date base set of binaries for your product and overwrite your installed versions with them. Newer versions of ITrack.exe have a fix in them to correct the two-update issue. Once the up-to-date files are in, update the product as usual using the AU.
  • Another thing to check is that your updater settings are correct in host.ini. In the [general] section, the line should be updatedir=.\Updates. If there is a path to a directory in that setting, then ITrack may not be loading updates correctly because of spaces in the directory path.
