Optimus_prime wrote:The odd thing is that you can't use any version. I'm trying to isolate the issue, i hope i can find it

The original thread starter said he had no luck with UMS 4.0.0, we don't know if for example 3.6.0 works. Or if 4.0.2 solved the problem at least on Mavericks, like it did for me.

As about iamjohn and myself, 3.6.0 and 3.6.1 appear to be the last functional versions on Lion machines.

Let me know if there's anything to test to pinpoint the problem, I'd really like to update to UMS 4 on my media server machine (can run 10.7.5 max) because of the webinterface

There will be a new edition uploaded soon, could you please test and see if you have the same issue.
Also to help me out in trying to isolate this down, could you post the output of the following file:
Right Click the Universal Media Server.app
Show package contents, double click on Contents, MacOS, and launch JavaAppLauncher. Then post me the output so i can compare to my versions.
Thanks

waiting for it.

It's up on sourceforge, Subjunk will put the other releases up in the next few days and put the notice up on the forums after he gets back from being away

No luck!

Ok guys, thanks for the log's. Leave it with me and i'll see if i can track down the issue. One thing i'll note from the start, you will need to install either the JRE 7 or JDK 7 for java if you want to run the Java 7 version (If you already have it installed, reinstall them). Could you install those and see if that gets the java 7 version to work. Also the Java 6 vs Java 7 versions use totally different Java launching programs which makes them totally different in how they launch, which makes me suspect it may have to do with 10.7.5. But i'll see what i come up with.

10.7.5 Server in my case if that matters. Maximum OS for my media server.

For testing UMS 4.0.3 works fine on Mavericks machines though...
