Crashplan for small business on headless
Hello all,
This is a continuation of the following thread which was closed for inactivity
https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/TIP-CrashPlan-Pro-4-9-DOES-Work-With-Headles...
My pleasure. If you (or anyone else coming across this thread) could use help at a level below key-for-key instructions, I'm happy to offer it!
Thanks CarlEdman for your feedback! With some struggles I was able to got it working on my ReadyNas Ultra 6 with firmware 6.9.3.
In order to help the others I will add the steps that I had to perform in addition to the steps that CarlEdman supplied:
1) Removed line "DISPLAY=localhost:10.0" in ~/.bashrc. For some reason localhost was not resolving. Therefore I performed step 2. 2) ran echo "DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:10.0" >> ~/.bashrc 3) ran apt-get install libgtk-3-0 4) ran apt-get install libxss1 5) ran apt-get install libgconf-2-4
After these actions no errors where reported anymore in ~/.code42/logs/ui_error.log.
I hope this helps anyone else in getting it working.
Hi there,
I'm now on 6.9.3 and I am attempting to get CrashPlan configured.
Let's say I can move around in Linux but I am not an expert.
My steps:
- Installed Xorg. The installation ended with several errors which I cannot decipher. Please see logs here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/icqtgn9rn60pm53/XORG%20installer%20log.txt?dl=0
- ran apt-get install libgtk-3-0
- ran apt-get install libxss1
- ran apt-get install libgconf-2-4I do not have the "DISPLAY=localhost:10.0" in my bashrc file.
I tried running xeyes but I get a Error: Can't open display:
Any help please? I'll be happy to put together a guide at the end - as I did for CrashPlan back on OS4!
Cheers!
Hmm. My first guess is that it is a connection problem. So are you running an Xserver on your local computer and Putty to create a tunnel to it (instructions for both are in my first post)? Also what is the value of your environment variable DISPLAY? It should be either "localhost:XXX.Y" if you are tunneling your X connections to your local display or something like "MYHOSTORIPADDRRESS:XXX.Y" if you are connecting directly to your local display (where MYHOSTORIPADDRESS would be either the local name assigned or IP address for your local machine).
I added the display variable to the ~/.bashrc file and rebooted. with my surprise xeyes showed a pair of eyes on my Windows screen!!!!
I'm now going to install Crashplan!
Thank you so much guys!!
Edit: I have successfully installed Crashplan but I cannot access the UI. When I start CrashPlanDesktop nothing happens.
My ~/.code42/logs/ui_error.log shows the following
/usr/local/crashplan/electron/crashplan: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Again, I can run the xeyes no problem.
