Issues with Chocolatey version and update

I've recently installed proget to set up a small internal nuget repository to use with chocolatey. I've been quite happily installing packages manually and with puppet. However I'm now looking at pushing out my first update.

I add the new version of the package (vmwarevsphereclient) to proget (I now have 5.1.0 and 5.5.0) and run 'chocolatey update vmwarevsphereclient' only to get 'Nothing to update'.

If I run chocolatey version vmwarevsphere client I get:

found : 5.1.0 name : vmwarevsphereclient latestCompare : 000000000000 verMessage : System.Collections.DictionaryEntry does not appear to be on the source(s) specified: latest : foundCompare : 000000000005.000000000001.000000000000

It's like proget isn't reporting the most recent version.

Interestingly if I rename both the 5.1.0 and 5.5.0 package to 'vmware' it works fine.

If I run 'chocolatey version all' the following packages give me the error:

MsSqlServerManagementStudio2014Express
7zip.install
putty.portable
GoogleChrome
git.install
vmwarevsphereclient
DotNet4
notepadplusplus.install

The following work fine:

git
Firefox
filezilla
windirstat
notepadplusplus
7zip
SourceTree
putty

Any help you can offer is most appreciated!

Product: ProGet
Version: 3.1.2

Could you send a Fiddler trace to support@inedo.com of the requests that the Chocolatey client is sending to the ProGet server when you run chocolatey update vmwarevsphereclient and chocolatey version vmwarevsphereclient?

Thanks for the help Tod. I've sent the requested trace in an email.

Are these packages from a connector to http://chocolatey.org/api/v2 ? Did you pull them to a locally-hosted feed before updating them? Are they cached in the _cache directory in the package storage path?

I entered the same search URL provided in the Fiddler trace (http://proget-server/nuget/choco/Search()?$filter=IsLatestVersion&$orderby=Id&$skip=0&$top=30&searchTerm='vmwarevsphereclient'&targetFramework=''&includePrerelease=false) and it came back with the 5.5.0 version.

Hi Tod,

Apologies for the slow reply. I actually decided not to use connectors at all, and all the packages are manually downloaded to a folder which proget indexes.

This is what I get from that URL:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><feed xml:base="http://sfoffice2:8888/nuget/snowflake/" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"><title type="text">Search</title><id>http://sfoffice2:8888/nuget/snowflake/Search()/</id><updated>2014-09-08T10:42:54Z</updated><link rel="self" title="Search" href="Search" /></feed>

If I do it for chocolatey.org:
http://chocolatey.org/api/v2/Search()?$filter=IsLatestVersion&$orderby=Id&$skip=0&$top=30&searchTerm='vmwarevsphereclient'&targetFramework=''&includePrerelease=false

Thanks
Sam

Sorry I didn't paste the chocolatey version correctly:

If it's not appearing locally via the Search() URL, are you actually seeing it in the web application itself?

Perhaps there was an indexing issue or something (this can happen on network paths). If you restart the ProGet service that might resolve it.

Hi Tod,

I think I've got to the bottom of it. I deleted the feed and recreated it with a local path and had the exact same problem. However I spotted that if I changed the search term to vmware, it worked fine. So I changed the title of the package to 'vmwarevsphereclient' as well from 'VMWare vSphere Client' to match the id, and that seems to fix it.

For now I'll do this for all my packages, but I think this might be a bug in proget, using title which to my understanding is supposed to just be a display name (at least this is how chocolatey.org uses it) when it should use id.

Thanks

Sam

Looks like this has been fixed in 3.2.0. Thanks guys!
