Error 422 when submitting update using wingetcreate

[duv23121]

For some reason, i suddenly get an error when I user WingetCreate to update and submit a piece of software. I tried multiple updates with multiple manifests and multiple computers to submit from but every time I get the same error:

System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: Response status code does not indicate success: 422 (Unprocessable Entity).

I checked the manifest files for weard items, tried to use interactive mode... all of it fails. Anyone has a good idea?

Is this happening at the final submit step? What version of winget-create are you using? (invoking wingetcreate should show you the version) Can you share the command you're using to update & submit the manifest?

[duv23121]

Yes, I noticed it with an outdated version, so I already updated WinGetCreate to the latest:

I usualy use a command like this:
wingetcreate update SanfordLP.DYMOLabel --urls https://download.dymo.com/dymo/Software/Win/DCDSetup1.4.8.3.exe --version 1.4.8.3 --token "GitHubToken01" --submit

Worked before... so I dont see the problem with this. I tried to update another manifest too with the same error.
So I tried the command "wingetcreate update SanfordLP.DYMOLabel --interactive" but this also fails at the end when submitting the pull request.

I tried without the githubtoken (wingetcreate.exe token --clear) and login to github with my user credentials. This also fails.

I can't repro locally but looks like it's related to:

• 422 Error with Submitting Manifest winget-create#590

Can you manually sync your winget-pkgs fork from GitHub with upstream commits & try submitting again?

[duv23121]

I saw that topic too. But I couldnt find the Sync button. I was looking at this: https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/syncing-a-fork
Now I discovered I dont need to be on the official fork but on my own. And there was a sync button, telling me the fork is out of sync.

After Syn, it worked fine again. Thanks for pointing me in the righ direction
