Stuck after updating v2366 -> v2496

[Developer_A_1]

Just updated from v2366 to v2496. Original project is asked to be converted, but there are many errors.

First some "process.exit()" errors on screen, then restarting XDK a request to upgrade plugins and some errors we cannot state because the window has been closed too soon.

Now trying again to OPEN the previous XDK we have a "ENOEN, no such file or directory"... error. Now we're stuck with

...trying to remove the plugin "intel.xdk.device" manually from the ".xdk" file brings this instead:

Do you have your projects stored on the same drive as your XDK application?

Engineering is aware of this and is working on it.

...reference seems to be about Win: we're using a Lnx platform and anyway they're on different mount point (namely an /opt/... folder and a different /home/... for data), so maybe THIS is the problem (?)

Thank you for your job... we've downgraded back to previous version and using it 'til next upgrade, meanwhile :)

[Pamela_H_Intel]

So, are your project and the XDK application stored on different drives?

[Developer_A_1]

well... we could say "yes" considering different mounting points as different drives (the latter term having many meanings depending on the context :))

[Pamela_H_Intel]

Being in different directories should not be a problem as long as they are physically on the same drive.

But if you are happy with 2366 (other than the much too frequent upgrade messages - we have requested these be minimized), then it may be best to use that temporarily. We are working on several issues, primarily surrounding changes in Cordova and expect to have a new XDK version out very soon.
