Debug Port 8085

Hello,

Has anyone seen this before when sideloading a channel? It never did this before and for a couple weeks I have seen it, but the manifest is there and no structure change or changes in code. I deleted my sideload to test anothers zip file and it says this. I reloaded my zip file and get the same message. Roku 2 XS and latest 4.7 Build 2049

------ Manifest does not exist in zip archive ------
------ Manifest does not exist in unloaded directory ------
------ Running ------

But, all works on the channel and the manifest shows changes I make in the images a little while ago, so I know it is loading.

Re: Debug Port 8085

I've seen the same thing and have been wondering about it, but I thought maybe it was because I was on beta firmware. It doesn't seem to affect anything, but I'd like to know what it means.

Re: Debug Port 8085

I am seeing this also. Could it have something to do with the way the zip file is created? Im just compressing to a zip on a Mac, not using the -r or the -9 options... But otherwise everything else works fine... The zip files pre packaged with the sdk don't do this, so I would have to think it is the way the zip is made...

Re: Debug Port 8085

My Bad... Went back and checked on the example zips in the SDK.... The same error message appears on the debug console... So... Maybe the new 4.8 firmware update causes this?... I don't remember seeing the "manifest does not exist" error messages on previous firmware..
