Help to investigate why eas update not working

Build/Submit details page URL

No response

Summary

As far as I know this might be considered as a duplicate but none of the issues help how to debug the problem I’m describing. I run eas update, the command runs successfully but the app is not updating. I would be happy to investigate that but I can’t even see logs in production. The app is published on TestFlight so far. Is there a way to see the logs? I’ve spend multiple days already and I hope you can help me to find a solution. Thank you!

Managed or bare?

Reproducible demo or steps to reproduce from a blank project

I don’t know how to reproduce it.

Update: There is what my billing page shows

It looks like there was no even attempt to download the resources.

I also used Sentry to catch the problem. I’ve made sure that it works by throwing a random error but there is nothing about expo-asset or something like that.

@finom I got this solved. As @wkozyra95 said. The channel needs to be specified in the eas.json.

I already had that but what fixed for me was removing this line from android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

<meta-data android:name="expo.modules.updates.EXPO_UPDATES_RELEASE_CHANNEL" android:value="qa"/>

And also removing this line from ios/<appname>/Supporting/Expo.plist

    <key>EXUpdatesReleaseChannel</key>
    <string>qa</string>

[wkozyra95]

@finom You need to specify channel in eas.json build profile, otherwise, it assumes that you are on classic updates.
