Re: Not recognizing upgrade

[Jaap Keuter <jaap.keuter () xs4all nl>]

Hi Todd,

[moving back to the mailing list]

The URL is the one that WinSparkle (the behind the scenes update checker) uses to look for updates. It composes the URL 
from it’s own parameters and asks the server what the available update is. It also checks with a limited frequency 
(every 24 hours, if I remember correctly).

I’m not sure what kind of CDN or other web technologies are in between the Wireshark update server and your internet 
link, but it seems it may take a while for it to propagate to ‘your neck of the woods’ so to speak. 

If Gerald goes through all of his multi page release checklist it should pop up in a reasonable amount of time. Or you 
can be proactive and get it once you receive notice of a new release. But only if you really cannot wait :)

Enjoy,
Jaap
