Crashplan 4.3 Partically Operational/Broken

Apple released Java for OS X 2015-001 beta yesterday. It installs the legacy Java 6 runtime for OS X 10.11 El Capitan:

"This package is exclusively intended for support of legacy software, and installs the same deprecated version of Java 6 included in the 2013-005 release."

People have reported mixed results depending on the app in question.

Max108,

First, thanks for link. Tired it via another forum post, and same result. Believe it has to do with Crashplan reliance on Java. It has it's own Java built into the application. The strange thing as shared, is the backups are still working from the taskbar/notification tray. However, when launch the UI to try to set configurations, modifiy UI settings, etc. it freezes and you cannot select anything at all. The UI is completely unresponseive. I'm interested to see what Apple/Crashplan have to say. As shared, submitted incidents with both for futher investigation. I'm surprised Crashplan wasn't doing some preliminary testing with Crashplan 4.3 and DP1 of El Capitan seems to me someone might have dropped the ball. We'll see.

Well... was hoping the supplemental updated was going to resolve the issue with Crashplan but no... bummer! Will have to wait for another update from either Apple and/or Crashplan. Crashplan pretty much said, they're doing testing but won't have compatibility until General Availability of El Capitan. Maybe, PB4 or supplemental update will resolve the issue. One can only hope.. This is really the only app (for the moment) giving me heartburn. But you get sand in your shoes, and other places when you play in the 'sandbox'. 😁
