Just a quick post…

If you are have an invalid debug token on your BB Playbook using Flash Builder Burrito (or 4.5 Retail), you may get an annoying issue preventing your applications from installing.

Sending Install request…

This can happen if the debug token on your playbook is incorrectly installed, i.e is displaying :

Debug Token : Installed
Valid : No
Expiration :

In my case the problem was that the system time of the Playbook was completely out of sync with my mac….

I corrected the system time on the Playbook, then deleted and reuploaded the token…. lo and behold!

Debug Token : Installed
Valid : Yes
Expiration : Fri Jun 24 2011 03:37:27 AM

So simple…. took about 3 hours to figure it out…

I later found that there are several other causes of this issue.. if this was not your problem then look here…
