Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
I'm having alot of difficulty replicating this issue you guys are having. I use a clean install of mavericks and am not seeing any issues. I will try to see if i can isolate the reason, I will install Xuggler and see if it happens for me.
Edit: I've tried building you a special version of UMS with the slf4j-API that Xuggler uses and it's throwing alot of errors. I'll try and isolate the issue and see if i can get around it.
2ndEdit: That slf4j version is so old that we've never used it in UMS, so it's very incompatible and will never work
But alas i will search this weekend and see if there is something i've missed
Duocycle, please open the Universal Media Server.app and view it's contents. Open the folder 'Contents" then MacOS' folder and launch JavaAppLauncher and post the contents. Thanks

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
I should mention that I'm using a Hackintosh, but it's working flawlessly in every regard except for UMS.

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
Looks like I found a soulution: A java program (xuggler) caused the problem. I tried uninstalling it completly (including environment variables) and I can now use UMS...

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
That program is a known issue as it uses an out of date slf4j library/api that UMS can't use. I think it's mentioned in another forum post, I forgot all about it. I will write a guide in the UMS Wiki to get users to check for it

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
I'm still facing the issue
Not sure how to find out which programs are Java based.
Would attaching a list of all of my installed Applications potentially help?

Re: UMS won't start on Mavericks
Sure, I can find out which use certain libraries that UMS uses that may cause conflicts. I'd like to help in any way i can
