I wonder, why there is such lack of information about QtIFM? So, basically I have successfully created offline installer, but now have some problem with online one. Here is my script for making repo:
D:\Qt\QtIFW-3.0.6\bin\repogen.exe -p client\packages client\clientRepository
This is for making installer:
D:\Qt\QtIFW-3.0.6\bin\binarycreator.exe --online-only -c client\config\config_online.xml -p client\packages client\OnlineInstaller.exe
The config_online.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Installer>
<Name>4x4Basic name</Name>
<Version>1.0.0</Version>
<Title>4x4Basic title</Title>
<Publisher>The AlexLPN Company</Publisher>
<StartMenuDir>Board4x4</StartMenuDir>

<Repository>
<Url>http://github.com/alexlyapin/Basic4x4/clientRepository</Url>

</Installer>
The updates.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

The package is uploaded to GitHub repository as "https://github.com/alexlyapin/Basic4x4/tree/master/clientRepository" right there are located Basic4x4 folder, Updates.xml and license.txt
When I make the installer and try to test the repo, I get the error: Updates.xml: error occurred while parsing element
So, either the location is wrong or some xml lines. Can someone please check or advice me something? Thank you!
I haven't personally tried it, but using github raw would work.
Use
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alexlyapin/Basic4x4/master/clientRepository/Updates.xml
instead of
https://github.com/alexlyapin/Basic4x4/raw/master/clientRepository/Basic4x4/1.0.0imageformats.7z
