I side loaded my application to Roku and tested it for a whole day. It has been working fine. Then I created package from the same side loaded zip. When I published this package and updated application on Roku, the application started crashing to Roku main screen on startup. I have tried to create packages with different versions of the same application and all are failing where zips are working. How is it possible for package to crash when zip is working fine???

I tend to think a missing registry setting is the culprit in these situations.

I have only one setting being stored in the registry. And I have a workflow for the case if the settings is not found in the registry. This workflow seems to be working fine when I am using zip. But in the package file it seems to be crashing the application right at the place where it is getting that setting from registry and using it. So you might be right about the registry but why is it working in zip?

Here is my code:

    running = True
    
    While running
    	this.textureManager.Cleanup()
    	this.screenState = Invalid
        this.accessCode = RegRead(this.accessCodeKey, Invalid)
        If this.accessCode = Invalid
            KBScreen = KeyboardScreen(this.port, "Enter Your Access Code")
            this.accessCode = KBScreen.Show()
            KBScreen = Invalid
        End If
        If this.accessCode <> Invalid
            ' Get content from server and display on screen
        Else
            running = False
        End If
    End While

OK,
The problem was not in the package file. The content with which I was testing and the content that published application was getting from server were different and it caused the content parser had an issue. It is working fine now after resolving bug in my parser.
