Had the same problem, after upgrading to 1.3.1 it worked like 15 other patches that did not work before.

same happened to me. So I disabled both webos internals feeds, closed preware, opened preware, enabled again & updated feeds. Then it worked

I had to run EPR this morning. Now the VK wont work for me. I will try your trick from up above.

[cgardnervt]

Damn from up above this is a no go Oh well I will figure it out Im sure.

**UPDATE**

Seems that installing the obsolete Keyboard first THEN installing the new one over it BEFORE exiting preware fixes the install for me. Now my VK is back and running!

[egaudet]

OK here is some clarifications, there are two common issues and the solutions:

First issue is due to a minor bug in AutoPatch Technology (that I will fix within the next couple of days), EPR leaves a few leftover keyboard files (in the kbselector/ directory). Therefore trying to install after EPR will fail. This is where the OBSOLETE package comes into play. The OBSOLETE package contains a script that removes all vkb created files and then removes itself. (I might make this a dependency for the keyboard so that installing the keyboard will automatically install this first to clean things up).

Second issue is due to outdated feeds causing the downloading of the package from the feed to fail. The symptoms of this are that you will never get an OK/CANCEL prompt for running the postinst script. It will simply say keyboard is installed and luna restart needed, however still shows in Preware as not installed. This is where Update Feeds comes into play.

SO in conclusion:

If the VKB installs without prompting for postinst and still says it's not installed in Preware, Tap appmenu->Update feeds and then try to install again.

If the VKB reports error installing (see: IPKG Log), there is a high chance that old files were not cleaned up. Install OBSOLETE virtual keyboard (no need to reboot nor uninstall it) and then install VKB.

drop down menu, manage feeds, then you can toggle webos feeds off or on.

glad I could help some of you!
