Restart option does not restart app

See original GitHub issue

I’m working with update.electronjs.org, and pushing out new releases. I’m getting notified that there is a new release available, with the options of Later and Restart. However, choosing Restart does nothing.

Restart doesn't

Here’s the output of my ShipIt stderr log:

2020-05-07 20:34:33.545 ShipIt[80622:8057145] Beginning installation

    );
} }
2020-05-07 20:34:39.576 ShipIt[80622:8056127] Installation completed successfully

There’s nothing in the ShipIt stdout file.

Any ideas what might be going on?
