I’m trying to update an AIR 2.5 app. (Packed as Windows .exe)
This error pops up bei updating:

Application namespace and update descriptor namespace are not
compatible

My .xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/1.0">
<version>1.1</version>
    <url>http://www.example.com/updater/my-app.exe</url>
    <description><![CDATA[New version  
  ]]></description>
</update>

Can somebody tell my what I did wrong?
Thanks
Uli

    A bit has changed since AIR 2.5. Mainly, change version to versionNumber, and add versionLabel. Here is an example from: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_update_framework.html

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5">
    <versionNumber>0.9.2</versionNumber>
    <versionLabel>Beta 2</versionLabel>
    <url>http://localhost/updater/AIRUpdater.air</url>
