Upgrade Notes:

For all versions:
Some configuration options for 3.x are not compatible with the 2.x releases, and a lot of them were renamed between 3.0.0-a1 and 3.0.0-a2, so it may be wise to make a backup of your configuration before installing.
It is recommended (but usually not necessary) to delete your UMS.conf file prior to installing this version. Windows users can choose the "clean install" option while installing instead.

Thx Subjunk. I just installed a4 over my previous a3 installation, and the following error msg appeared:
"Error: missing 'server' at 'C:\[path]\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll' Please install or use JRE or JDK that contains these missing components."

Anyone observing the same? Wolf.

Before any install, make sure your wrapper and java executables are stopped. Also if you have UMS running as a service, make sure that's stopped too.

Hmm, I'm running 64-bit Java on a 64-bit Win7 box, and a4 works as expected. I didn't get any Java errors. Watched 2 short shows with subtitles ok.

Edit: Concerning OP post below, I'm on 7u25, and do not have 6 on my machine.

Ok guys i had this problem, you have to uninstall any Java 6 JRE/JDK's you have. Then reinstall the java 7 JRE. Thats what fixed it for me, might not work for everyone.

Edit: This is related to something from a PMS commit and is something they use to run Java in 32 or 64 bit. The issue is when UMS (3.0.0-a4) looks into the registry it doesn't see what it needs (Java 7 etc) and defaults back to the other (JRE) version installed. In my case this was Java 6. My fix was to uninstall any JRE, all java 6 related JRE then reinstall the Java 7 JRE. Feedback would be helpfull.

I managed to make it work, I copied the jvm.dll from jdk I entered in "C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jdk1.7.0_25 \ jre \ bin \ server" and copied the file to "C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jre7 \ bin \ server", but I had to create the directory server, then it rebooted my Moden / router, I started the server and it worked.
