Force CrashPlan 3.6.3 to update?

[zfrogz]

Installed about a week ago. I've been trying to kick start the auto updater by restarting the service or restarting the jail. Backups are going fine but would like to get it up to the current version. Not having any other issues. Anyone know how to force the auto updater or manually update?

Were you able to figure this out?

I didn't find a way to force or manually update but it finally did on it's own. Now on 4.3.

wondering what version of freenas you're running. i haven't been able to get it to run on 9.3

I'm currently on FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201508250051. Was on build 201506292332 when I did the initial plugin install. What do your crashplan logs say?

was wondering if you were able to get it to work and runnin with 4.3 ~ please let me know if you did because I'm having issues connecting to the GUI

Yeah, everything is working for me but I did have to make some changes after the upgrade. You should find your answer by reading through this thread:

Just FYI. I noticed that the client GUI is where there pops up a message (can't remember exactly what it said) which forces the update. When I clicked a link. It initialised the upgrade on the FreeNAS server.
