The control panel won't allow me to match the package name because the auto generated package name of the 1.4 app has special characters and caps. How can I force my self hosted panel to take the package name, or can I? Is there another way to do this? Grey matter not a lot of help tonight.

How can I do it without disabling the app ? This is probably easier than I am making it.

I've followed the above tutorial, four times actually, and can't get it to work. It looks like there may be error in the instructions, a bit of the logic towards the end doesn't follow. Has anyone used it successfully? Either something is a bit off or I'm doing something wrong. As usual, it's probably me. Tim Comments Thanks for the replies guys.

WolfTimJ buzztouch Evangelist Posts: 810 Reg: Feb 20, 2011 Rockwall, TX 17,400	12/11/12 07:22 PM (13 years ago) I think I got it working. The tutorial above may work for 2.0, but not self hosted. Using what I learned going through the procedures in that tutorial, I modified them somewhat and I have a working app with the right package name. Thanks for the heads up guys.
