Web Interface not working?

Post by phd21 »

Hello UMS developers and support staff,

First, thank you for this excellent media server application.

I have been using and recommending UMS for years now. I really do enjoy this application.

I upgraded to ver. 7.7.1 and I when I click the Web Interface button I get an error and no web interface. This used to work well. I tried Slimjet, Firefox, Konqueror. I delete the previous user configuration folder. Everything else works as it should.

FYI: I am using Linux Mint 19 and Linux KDE Neon both based on Ubuntu 18.04. I have only tried the web interface in KDE Neon.

You are right, but no log files seems to be generated by UMS.

= starting UMS in trace mode (also by terminal with root permission) no degub.log file is generated.

Pert.

To make it working (Web Interface and debuggin too), on Linux Ubuntu 18.04:

- Do not start UMS from java file (ums.jar) but from UMS.sh (make it executable).

-If error message appears download and install the Java 8 JDK: sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk

-Don't use internal java machine (remove or rename linux folder in UMS installation folder)

-Then try again to start UMS from .sh file

Now I can get into web interface and debugging function work properly
