i have created a new component and when i want add auto update to it using the Akeeba Release System compoennt , also i have done avery thing , but when i want add the : server xml file

<updateservers>
<server type="extension" priority="1" name="WHM Portfolio">http://site.com/index.php? 

option=com_ars&view=update&task=stream&format=xml&id=1&dummy=extension.xml

it give this error :

Warning
JInstaller: :Install: Can't find Joomla XML setup file.

also i have added the "&dummy=extension.xml" to the Akeeba Release System – Update Streams xml url but still not work ..

is there any fix for this please ?

Ampersands (&) have to be escaped in XML. Your URL should look like this:

http://site.com/index.php?option=com_ars&view=update&task=stream&format=xml&id=1&dummy=extension.xml
