CrashPlan updated to 4.3 and now my GUI will not connect.
OK CrashPlan updated to 4.3.0 and now my Windows 7 GUI will not connect.
The fix:
1)Make sure Windows 7 GUI is 4.3 and make sure it is not running when you are doing the steps below:
2) Copy your .ui_info from your nas to your desktop:
a) .ui_info on NAS is probably located /var/lib/crashplan and is hidden.
(unless you changed it from the default when installing i.e. What directory do you wish to store backups in? [/usr/local/var/crashplan])
b) .uni_info on your desktop is located C:\ProgramData\CrashPlan. (Rename your old .uni_info to .uni_info.orig)
EDIT: Configure your ui.properies file on you PC appropriately. i.e. sevice port should be 4200 if you are using ssh to tunnel or service host should be changed to your NAS ip adresss if you made the proper changes in the my.service.xml file on you nas.
3) Start up Crashplan 4.3 on your desktop.
Done !

- sdouekGuideIf the EJRE addon is already installed on your system do not uninstall it, it is still needed globally and as per MinimServer.
Uninstalling the Java runtime
To remove the EJRE installation from your ReadyNAS, remove the EJRE Installer add-on. This removes the installed EJRE files, but doesn't remove the original EJRE .tar.gz file from the backup share. - tony359ApprenticeI'm not sure I'm following. You say not to uninstall but the quoted text says otherwise?
- sdouekGuideUninstalling EJRE will uninstall your global Java and may break your JAVA libraries.
What I meant was if you uninstall it and don't replace it with another global Java it may break your Java libraries.
Since CrashPlan 4.3 installs it's own local to the application JAVA to use and does not install Java globally like the EJRE install, CrashPlan will not replace the global Java you just removed with the EJRE. - tony359ApprenticeOk, thanks.
So the question is: does a RN come with Java installed? If I uninstalled the global Java and re-installed CP, it should work. What else uses Java on the RN?
