 try

    var localServer = google.gears.factory.create('beta.localserver');
  } catch (ex)
  {
    setText('Could not create local server: ' + ex.message);
    return;
  }
  try
  {
  var store = localServer.createManagedStore("ABC_STORE");
  store.manifestUrl = 'testManifest.json';
  store.checkForUpdate();
  setText('Local Store Created');

  catch(e)

          setText('Could not create Local Store: ' + e.message);
          return;

Hello,
I have the standard code above for creating localserver and
managedresourcestore. I am getting the successful messages, the local
server is created but the files in the manifest are not being copied
over.( For testing purposes I only have a few files in the store to
start with.)

Any suggestions on to what might be (or not) happening?
Thanks,
meerkat
