the server relaunched automatically but I am not sure what you mean by 'server icon' .. the 'note' icon I think is from minimwatch. It disappeared completely.

disappeared completely.

Quote:Can you make the problem happen by doing a manual server update from the Packages tab in the Properties dialog? For example, if you manually replace update 21 by update 20 by typing minimserver-0.8-update-20 in the 'Other package' field and clicking Install, followed by clicking Relaunch after the install has completed, do you see the same problem?

doing a manual 'update' to 20 as you instructed works fine. Server restarts. Icon turns to yellow, then to normal (no bg colour).
But then the notification for the 21 update shows up and after doing the update to 21 I am running in the original problem. No icon. have to kill these two processes to be able to start minimwatch again.

Quote:Is it possible that some other program on the Mac is interfering with MinimWatch? See this post for an example of this kind of problem.

Possible.
I will have a closer look. At least I am now able to trigger the problem :) .. but not today, need to go to bed.
Thanks !
