Paper Pile Update 1.3.2 is coming

Apple just approved Paper Pile’s update to version 1.3.2. Running on iOS 4.2 the app crashes when trying to fetch new stories. This update fixes the issue.

During the next weeks, Paper Pile will get a new feed fetching core which is incredible fast. It will debut as part of the next News Wall update in a few days.

Paper Pile crashes after iOS 4.2 update

After updating your iPad to iOS 4.2 you’ll notice that Paper Pile crashes when updating feeds. This happens because of a bug at the XML-RPC framework the app uses. I’ll fix this and submit the update to Apple as soon as possible. I apologize for the time you cannot use Paper Pile.

Today’s network issues

Due to some DNS troubles both the website and the backend of Paper Pile and News Wall for iPad & iPhone have been unreachable for some hours. The error is fixed now. I apologize for the time the apps have not been usable.

The Domain Name System is responsible for IP address / hostname translations. When the app tries to contact the backend it connects to the host danielkbx.com. A DNS server translates the name “danielkbx.com” to the IP address 188.40.86.71. Without a working DNS service the app cannot resolve the IP address and therefore a connection is not possible.

Update available fixing connection errors on iPad

Apple just approved News Wall 1.0.1 which fixes a little but annoying bug which causes a connection error message on iPad. When automatic reload is enabled, the app starts reloading articles immediately when it gets active. Sometimes this fails due to name resolving problems. After the update, News Wall waits for 2 seconds before refreshing feeds. by the way, it just feels better.

Review at padvance.com – Bug fixes

Grant Holzhauser wrote a review about Paper Pile at padvance.com. It’s does not rate the app very good, I grant, but Grant mentions a bad bug that makes article texts get rendered strange. I focused on this and fixed it. Now the good news, you do not need to update the app.

To enjoy the new handling you simply need to refresh your pages. If the pages do not get re-created (because there are no new articles) please restart the app.
