UMS 6.1.0 java 8 doesn't work on os x 10.11.3

[net.ricky]

Dear developers, I'm trying to running UMS but with no success.
As mentioned in the subject, I downloaded the lastest ums version (6.1.0) for java 8.

Here my system info:

Code: Select all

sw_vers 
ProductName:	Mac OS X
ProductVersion:	10.11.3
BuildVersion:	15D21

Code: Select all

java -version
java version "1.8.0_73"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_73-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.73-b02, mixed mode)

Here the error I get:

Code: Select all

./JavaAppLauncher 
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.slf4j.spi.LocationAwareLogger.log(Lorg/slf4j/Marker;Ljava/lang/String;ILjava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Throwable;)V

	at net.pms.configuration.PmsConfiguration.<init>(PmsConfiguration.java:527)
	at net.pms.PMS.main(PMS.java:1166)

I've tried before with java 1.7.0_40 (my java jdk wasn't updated) but I got the same error.

Any suggestions? Thank you for helping.

Regards,

Riccardo

Please can you run "java -version" on a terminal and show me the output?

[mitchde]

GA-EP35:~ andreasm$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_07-b10)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.3-b01, mixed mode)
GA-EP35:~ andreasm$

6.1 running OK.

Uhmm this is weird, in your ums log it's clear it uses java 8, but the java running on your terminal is java 7 (and a very old release). So probably I need to understand from ums log which version ums is using. Unfortunately before the message error I don't have any useful information (like the java version called).
In any case thank you for your help mitchde.
Any addtional help from other users is welcome.
Bye

I too have just installed the latest version of UMS and are having problems to do with Java on Mac OS10.11.3

Completely uninstalled UMS

I then completely uninstalled ALL VERSIONS of Java.

I then installed the latest Java Version 8 Update 73

Installed UMS version 6 but it complained it needed Java 6SE

I uninstalled UMS again

I then installed OS X 2015-001 which installs the legacy Java 6 runtime for OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Installed UMS version 6

Now the error message is "The application “Universal Media Server.app” can’t be opened"

I then uninstalled UMS version 6 and installed UMS 5.2.2 and all works fine.

So there is a problem with UMS version 6

I posted the above in viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6074 I have since installed UMS 6.1.0 and still NO success with the same error message is "The application “Universal Media Server.app” can’t be opened"

I have changed my Security settings to "Allow Apps downloaded from: Anywhere" and still NO luck.

This problem wouldn't by any change have anything to do with El Capitan's new "System Integrity Protection (SIP) a new security feature introduced by Apple?"

This is all very annoying because I love UMS it used to work well with my Kiwi Panasonic Equipment.

Please find a fix for the latest UMS versions as I have had to revert back to 5.2.2

I'm having this exact issue. Also on 10.11.3 and when I open UMS it asks me to pick a language, then after I do, nothing happens.

UMS shows in tray but no windows, nothing. Java 8 installed.

UMS 6.2.1 java 8 doesn't work on os x 10.11.4 either. (using latest java 8 update 77 build 03)

Interesting that no one, moderators, UMS techie people have not really replied in these forums concerning this issue.
