Fixing TinyUmbrella 4.1.4 on Mac OS X Error

If you are having errors with TinyUmbrella on Mac OS X

Something is wrong:
You don’t have admin privileges or
You have something running on port 80 or
Your hosts file is not modifiable
Please check Anti-Virus software or shutdown Skype/Teamviewer/etc as these apps block access to port 80.

Try this method:

[bash]
cd Umbrella.app/Contents/Resources/Java
sudo java -jar umbrella.jar
[/bash]

The previous commands will run TinyUmbrella as root which is what the application is expecting.

Running the Umbrella.app by double-clicking it, or even via the Terminal with sudo open Umbrella.app, it will run the java app as the non-privileged user which is what is causing the error.

      Since you changed four directories with one command I have no way of knowing which folder is missing: Umbrella.app? Contents? Resources? Java? My guess is that you didn’t get the Mac OS X version and you dont have Umbrella.app

    Hello Chris,

    Thanks for posting this method. I can do the cd command to move to de directory where umbrella.jar is but when I run the sudo command I get this error:

    Any hint?

      Yes, sounds like your version of Java is not up to date. The error is UnsupportedClassVersionError
      I assume you are on Mac and the standard software update usually keeps your Java up to date. Have you installed Java manually, maybe an earlier version? Check your Java version and compare. Type :

      java -version

      Mine is 1.6.0_20

    2 sudo java -jar umbrella.jar

    Something is wrong:
    You don’t have admin privileges or
    You have something running on port 80 or…

      Check System Preferences -> Sharing

      and make sure that “Web Sharing” is not enabled. My guess is something already has port 80

    If web sharing is on, it will always give you the erro, if it is off it will start up fine.

    Thank you! This has been bothering me for weeks.

    Just so people know, they probably need to put the path to the file in the code:

    cd /Users/Username/Desktop/Umbrella.app/Contents/Resources/Java

    that worked for me

    Got same errors as all of you guys, did as you all did, progressed beautifully, but when it came to “web sharing” mine was disabled and TinyUmbrella still freezes on startups. Any questions?

      Java does not ship with OSX any longer. You have to go to Oracle and download and install Java JRE
