Java Errors

[PieterB]

Since upgrading to the latest version, there are regularly Java errors; here's the log -I do not have any knowledge of Java:

Can you provide more details regarding your server? Did you upgrade SS or Java?

I upgraded Subsonic, and Java gets its regular automatic updates/grades.

The server is a XP SP3 workstation -very well maintained, getting it's data from a Linux NAS (NasLite 2.64).

After some years of Subsonic use, this is the first time I'm running into this kind of trouble.

What is misleading, is the fact that the tray icon is green, not red. So there is no visual sign that something is wrong.

I guess I was lucky and didn't have much trouble upgrading to 4.2 on my servers. I would suggest you might try stopping the Subsonic service, deleting the Subsonic directory, uninstall/reinstall Java then reinstall SS. I know that's not the easiest task, but it could fix things if you can't pinpoint the problem.

That is, of course, if you've already rebooted the server to see if that helps.

[PieterB]

That will be my last resort. The problem occurs occasionally, and restarting the service solves the problem.

I posted the log, because Subsonic (i.e. Sindre) asked me to. Being an obedient guy, I did.

Thanks for answering.
