This one is nearly 2 years old. You are far better asking a new question in the appropriate forum section, probably Support in this case.
Also just ask the question don't ask for a specific person to answer, unless you are responding to something they specifically posted. I am going to lock this thread now .Thanks.

The alternate-webapp-generator.sh worked really good for me for 15.04 issues. What do you think, will this also work for 16.04?

Just a stupid question. From what I see from your dummy config file.
Are you sure icon_path is OK? Maybe you forgot the username after /home/ ?

Unfortunately without access 😞

Can maybe someone tell me what I have done wrong:

  1. I downloaded and unzipped https://github.com/Winael/ubuntu/blob/master/ubuntuphone/webapps/Reboot/alternate-webapp-generator.zip to my ubuntu 16.04 desktop

  2. I made the alternate-webapp-generator.sh file executable

  3. I edited the config.cfg

    # config.cfg
export namespace="BastosNamespace"
export app_name="xxAppname"
export app_title="xxAppTitle"
export app_url="http://xx.de"
export app_description="A webapp client for xx.de."
export app_UA="Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.0; Nexus 5) AppleWebkit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2125.102 Mobile Safari/537.36"
export app_version="0.1"
export maintainer_name="xxx"
export maintainer_email="xxx@gallehr.de"
export icon_path="/home/xxx/xxx.png"

  4. In terminal I cd to the right folder and run . alternate-webapp-generator.sh

  5. Everything went with success, I get a .click file created

  6. I copied the .click file to my phone

  7. With UT Tweak Tool I installed the .click with sucess

BUT unfortunately the webapp doesnt show up at my apps even not after restart.

At this moment, I am verry happy, that at least this script exists, so we have a possibility to easily generate webapps.

I haven't yet managed to get a working environment on my Ubuntu 16.10 system for compiling click apps. I used to have it working with the Ubuntu SDK, but that was a while ago. I tried to install clickable from the instructions in the wiki, but got stuck on some errors that I didn't manage to resolve.

@Bastos
It is a script and you can download it from here:
https://github.com/Winael/ubuntu/blob/master/ubuntuphone/webapps/Reboot/alternate-webapp-generator.zip

It uses a config.cfg file, which is included in the zip.
You just have to put your webapps info in config file and run the script.

Someone should make one simple gui web app creator of this. Script is not very user friendly.

Tried to use ubuntu sdk, but it crashes all the time and couldn't transfer web app to device due to unknown error. Is sdk functionality broken with ubports version?

For web-apps in the store, I totally agree that there are too much and only few users use them (even if they can be really useful!!!)

For the alternate-webapp-generator it's better than nothing, but what canonical did was really a wonderful idea!!! Because I'm not a developer and I don't even know how to run a script πŸ˜‰
That's why I have two questions:
Would it be possible to do something as canonical did, i.e. a server were you insert a link and you can download a .click?
Or a better solution: would it be possible to have a web-app generator on the phone, i.e. an app where you insert a link and it generates an app directly in the phone?

Because I think that web-apps are "useless" in the store (even if I could install your app, I'm in Vienna too ;)), so I think there has to be found a solution even for this one day, and a web-app generator could help !

What do you think about it?

I didn't mean they are not usefull, they are very usefull, but to very limited number of people.
And there are alot of such webapps, so it's really hard to find webaps that are usefull for me.
That is why the webapp-generator is a thing that is nice to have. πŸ˜‰
