When I try to update ACF from the WP update screen, here’s what I get:
Downloading update from http://connect.advancedcustomfields.com/index.php?k=cHVyY…
An error occurred while updating Advanced Custom Fields Pro: Download failed. Bad Request
What’s weird is that when I run the update on my local site — same code, same db, same plugins — the update works. So I figure it’s probably some server configuration issue. I know that my local machine is running PHP 5.3 and my live server is running PHP 5.4.
I’d like to debug this more, but I don’t really know which direction to head. Any idea on why I’m consistently hitting this error?
Are you sure you have the license key entered into the site that is not updating?
Ha! Wow, I feel dumb now. It must have still been using the beta dev license. Don’t know why I didn’t think of that, but thanks a bunch!
Not a problem. I ran into this a couple times and that turned out to be the culprit. 🙂
