We received reports that the APS installer currently fails to update the package list. Our investigation showed that the issue is caused by a malformed XML document that the installer receives from apscatalog.com. The error message that is logged in the ISPConfig system log is “APS crawler: String could not be parsed as XML”.
The patch below improves the APS update script to skip malformed files instead of stopping the whole download process.
