Yes the x86 download linked from that post gives grey icon.

And download linked from this main download page shows UTF-8 charset not available warning.

I downloaded from UTF-8 thread shortly before updating this post and I saw you said changed the UTF-8 fix minimserver package, so I believe it was the updated version. But I will give it a try again.

My DSM is the 4.3-3776, when minimserver worked for me fully my NAS was running 4.3-3776 as well that I have not touched the DSM udpate since gotten the MinimServer working. From the main download page, I downloaded a minimserver spk back on 20th Oct and it worked fine before my deleting of the "minimserver" account. Has the version been changed in the main download page been changed since 20th Oct?

The version on the main download page was last changed on 25th September.

Quote:P.S. Update, the minimserver spk gives the grey icon is indeed the UTF-8 fix updated version, I just downloaded again and install again with no luck.

Thanks for confirming this. This suggests that some change in the "UTF-8 fix" version is causing the grey icon problem. This is puzzling, as other users have reported success with this version. It's possible that these other users are not using the x86 download. Which model of x86 NAS do you have? Also, did you install Java using Java Manager or using the Java package from patters?

Please try installing the "UTF-8 fix" version and starting it using the DSM Package Center. When startup has completed, use File Station to browse to the folder

homes > minimserver > appData

In this folder, you will find the files minimserver.log and minimserver-out.log. Please attach both these files to a post here. Many thanks!
