My crashplan/bin directory is littered with restart log files every about 4 minutes and I cannot figure out why. There is no smoking gun for me to point to. In looking at the crashplan/log directory, I have a few logs in there, but again, no data about the crash. In the engineoutput.log, I'm seeing this: ] CPVERSION = 3.6.4 - 1388642400364 (2014-01-02T06:00:00:364+0000)

I don't see anything about a crash there though. What the heck did I miss? I did a remove/reinstall last night, and no luck.
Edit...
I've changed my run.conf to:SRV_JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Dapp=CrashPlanService -DappBaseName=CrashPlan -Xms20m -Xmx1024m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=300 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.ttl=300 -Dsun.net.inetaddr.negative.ttl=0 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.negative.ttl=0 -Dc42.native.md5.enabled=false"
GUI_JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Dapp=CrashPlanDesktop -DappBaseName=CrashPlan -Xms20m -Xmx1024m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=300 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.ttl=300 -Dsun.net.inetaddr.negative.ttl=0 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.negative.ttl=0 -Dc42.native.md5.enabled=false"
And bumped my ulimit number per other posts in this thread. Still crashing and restarting constantly.
Thanks
