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!

Please also reboot the NAS in case you have not already done so after deleting the minimserver user from the previous installation. There is a small chance that the Package Center is still busy and not working properly because of the deleted daemon user.
