Having similar issues after attempting to restore from a 7.9.9 version to bring my projects in… Install didn’t like the upgrade, but clean install seemed to work better. Are we just being impatient on the upgrade? How long should it take to go from 7.9.9 to 8.0.0? Also as seen in previous posts, on the host machine it doesn’t get past the “starting” screen when I just leave that window up. Also at upgrade, with a remote connection, I get the “gateway shutting down” and then the “gateway status unknown”, this window also never transitions. On either the host machine or remotely, if I try to connect with another tab, I get the “can’t reach this page” message… I pulled logs from after the successful install of 8.0.0, including a license activation, and after the attempted gateway restoration…[wrapper.log](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/7/7f3493cedb815115f09eb073220f449d71bc6e2d.log) (54.0 KB) Win10, Using Microsoft Edge for the browser Microsoft Edge 42.17134.1.0 Microsoft EdgeHTML 17.17134 ---

All wrapper.java.additional.# parameters or just that specific one? ---

Sorry, I just saw your comment about “any”… guessing I should restart the gateway after the change? ---

Go ahead and post what your parameters are - at least one is probably necessary, but any garbage collection related ones can be removed with embedded Java 11. And yes, after modifying the .conf file you’ll need to restart the service. ---
