When I use the "Check for updates" function for the add-ons, and I get the "no updates found" (except when there was at least one update, of course), I do not know whether there are no updates or whether an update failed, e.g. because the server is currently not reachable, no update address given inside of the add-on, spelling mistake in the add-on's update address, add-on update site moved from A to B, ...
Is there a way to see some listing like
add-on: name - version - update url - result: updated/up to date/url not found/something else
?

Re: Add-on update log?
- Go to Web Developer/Developer Tools -> Browser Console
- Click the little trashcan in the top left to clear the display
- Open the add-ons manager
- In the gear menu, click "check for updates"
- Wait until it's done checking
e.g.:
Code: Select all
1623767935704 addons.update-checker WARN update.rdf: Update manifest for xxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx did not contain an updates property
Code: Select all
1623767935392 addons.update-checker WARN Request failed: https://some.custom.updateserver.com/update.rdf - 404: Not Found

Re: Add-on update log?
Thank you very much, this works!
For example now I know:
"Update manifest for en-GB@dictionaries.thereisonlyxul.org did not contain an updates property"
