If the Java logo was shown as orange, this is the visual indication that the JRE QPKG is enabled. I'm still not quite sure whether you saw this.

Did you by any chance download a different Java .tar.gz file as well as the file that you mentioned? If so, the JRE QPKG might have installed this other .tar.gz file intead of the correct file. In this case, the Java logo would show as orange even though a wrong version of Java is installed.

I think the best approach is to uninstall both MinimServer and the JRE from the QPKG Center and then reinstall the JRE followed by MinimServer. Before you reinstall the JRE QPKG, make sure that the only Java download in the Public share is the correct ejre-7u51-fcs-b13-linux-arm-sflt-headless-18_dec_2013.tar.gz file.

After reinstalling the JRE QPKG, enable it and make sure the Java logo is shown as orange. It would also be a good idea to login to the QNAP using putty (if you have a Windows PC) and run the command:

/usr/local/jre/bin/java -version

This will confirm whether the correct version of Java is installed. If this command shows the correct Java version, you should be able to install the MinimServer QPKG successfully.

I will look tomorrow, but I am 99.9999% sure that no other JRE has been installed. Certainly I have not installed one.
Yup I was looking for the logo to go orange but it didn't, but as I said the logfile said the JRE had loaded.
Why can't life be simple more often?
