Hi,

Mobile joomla says there is an update but the update from 1.01 to 1.02 fails on J2.5.3

Unknown Archive type
Update path does not exist
JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file
Unable to detect manifest file

Updating COM_INSTALLER_TYPE_TYPE_ was successful.

Then if I manually download and update it does nothing. Goes through the motions of uploading and installing but only takes you back the install screen with no update applied.

Thoughts?

Do you have warnings in error_log that could be related to the issue?

This error most likely mean that you use one of early PHP5 versions (5.0 or 5.1). Joomla consider that PHP's function stream_get_meta_data returns http headers of request in array element ['wrapper_data'], but seems in early PHP it was ['wrapper_data']['headers'] element. Unfortunately, this issue is almost unknown (and even isn't documented on php.net), so Joomla doesn't check it.

What PHP version do you use?

OK, I'll look at php sources. Maybe it depends on php options. You can patch Joomla:
libraries/joomla/installer/helper.php, line 59

		foreach ($meta_data['wrapper_data'] as $wrapper_data)

should be replaced by

		$wrappers = is_array($meta_data['wrapper_data']['headers']) ? $meta_data['wrapper_data']['headers'] : $meta_data['wrapper_data'];
		foreach ($wrappers as $wrapper_data)

PS. I found discussion of similar issue in Wordpress: core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8476
with the same solution.
