Unable to publish when setting endpoint url to CloudFront

• Version: 19.49.0

• electron-updater version: 2.17.6

We have this app that we’re about to distribute globally using S3 + CloudFront.

S3 is setup correctly and I can publish as usual using build --mac --win -p always, but if I set the publish.endpoint option to the CloudFront URL (e.g. https://d3tpy77yecs5fp.cloudfront.net) it fails with:

Error: Cannot Cleanup [...] XMLParserError: Unexpected close tag

Is S3 + CloudFront supported? Do I need to use setFeedURL?

Thanks

You can set the publish config as S3 in package.json but then in your Electron script overwrite the config with a generic one for your cloudfront:

autoUpdater.setFeedURL({
    provider: 'generic',
    url: 'https://anydomain.com/',
})
autoUpdater.checkForUpdatesAndNotify()

@bithavoc You can set 2 publish providers, first one will be used for electron-updater, all will be used to publish (so, as you said, just use GenericServerOptions for CouldFront).
