Just tried to 0.2c but got the same error message.
Thanks for the quick update, though.

You are very welcome! Thanks for your confirmation that it works with the DS213+, I've already updated the first post .

Hi,

I tried installing 0.2d on a DS412+ (x86 Cedarview platform) and I get the message:

No bootstrapper available for cedarview

when I do the install.

Could you build a version compatible with cedarview?

Thanks.

Wow, that was quick! Thanks, it now works nicely.

I started hacking the installer.sh script and figured out that the architecture was reported as cedarview rather than x86.

I've updated the first post with version 0.3 of the Auto Restart package. Besides fixing an incompatibility issue with DSM 4.2, I've also removed the dependency on the MinimServer package. This dependency seemed to be more annoying than helpful, especially with the new quite restrictive (concerning dependencies) package center in DSM 4.2.
The package itself will take care whether the right MinimServer package is installed (0.63.3 or above) and will indicate in the log-file if it is not. If MinimServer is not installed, the Auto Restart package will refuse to start.

The Auto Restart package has been updated to version 0.4, please see the first post of this thread.
The most significant change is the new default setting for the 'restartBehaviour' property, which is 'forceRestart' now and results in a faster automatic restart process in some situations. This is possible due to the fact that MinimServer since version 0.7 writes to a temporary cache file when restarting and thus stopping MinimServer during a restart doesn't harm the original cache file any more (many thanks to Simon for implementing this improvement!).
Please note that the prior version of the Auto Restart package has to be uninstalled before installing 0.4 to apply the new default settings, because otherwise the package will adopt the settings from the previous installation.
