autoupdate

With the last two autoupdates of RMS Pactor I experienced a crash of the program. 

I am running a remote controlled RMS Pactor Server and cannot check the function of the program 24/7. 

This is one major reason why I have some wishes to the WDT. 


1. please notify the sysop in advance, when there is an update of the system planned. (by email - the sysop's email address is known to the WDT)


2. please provide a history file what has changed and what fixes and features have been addressed. 

This should make it easier to check the correct function of the program and give better feedback to the WDT.


3. please make the autoupdate feature optional. 

It should be activated by default, but there are circumcstances when the update should be delayed or supervised by the sysop, like in remote controlled stations. 


thanks for listening and thanks for the work done. 


Autoupdate to RMS Pactor 2.2.5.5. crashed at OE3XEC

I was unable to reproduce this problem by autoupdating RMS Pactor OE3ZK

At RMS Pactor LA3F we also experienced a crash, or hang about a week ago, so a restart was necessarry. I had to do that remote. Don't know for how long it had stopped. Some 12 hours maybe. I believe we did get some new updates later witch did NOT cause any problem.
Maybe issue is fixed?

since version 2.2.6.0 I did not see more crashes related to autoupdate. 


I am still convinced that a check button to switch on / off autoupdate and a history file of changes and bugfixes would be useful. (and in summary would save time)
