Re: [Skim-app-users] Manual update failed

2018-02-10 Thread Christiaan Hofman
This has been discussed here before. The problem is a bug in app transport
security in 10.11. So you need to download the last update manually, if you
cannot upgrade your system. The last update contains a workaround for the
system bug, so you won't have to do this in the future.

[Skim-app-users] Manual update failed

2018-02-09 Thread Justin C. Walker
Hi, 

I had been running Skim 1.4.29 on both 10.6.8 and 10.11.6.  I just now tried to 
update to the latest (using “Skim -> Check for updates …”).

The update succeeded on 10.6.8, but failed on 10.11.6.  The failure alert said
“Update error!

An error occurred in retrieving update information. Please try again later.
Cancel Update.”

The following were displayed in the system logs:

18/02/09 16:48:06.922 Skim[28501]: CFNetwork SSLHandshake failed (-9824)
18/02/09 16:48:06.922 Skim[28501]: NSURLSession/NSURLConnection HTTP load 
failed (kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -9824)
18/02/09 16:48:26.758 Skim[28501]: Sparkle Error: An error occurred in 
retrieving update information. Please try again later.
18/02/09 16:48:26.758 Skim[28501]: Sparkle Error (continued): An SSL error has 
occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Justin

I'm beginning to like the cut of his jibberish.
