Crashplan for small business on headless
Hello all,
This is a continuation of the following thread which was closed for inactivity

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.
Sorry for the follow up. All sorted. I needed to install libnss3. I now have access to the UI!!
I'll put together a guide soon!!
Well done. I do recall that there was some library ns-something that I thought I needed to track down in the end. And thanks for making a guide! It will be for a limited but extremely interested audience!
- Good to hear you managed to get it working as well!
I've started a new thread. Please do let me know if anything is wrong on the guide - I'm sure there is something missing!!
