Okay… so… basically, there is no way to have Kopia on the Mac run without the KopiaUI? See this thread about Kopia binary just crahing when trying to load an existing config file using the --file parameter:
Running kopia repo connect from-config throws invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
Btw, I tried that on my Linux servers as well, which don’t even have a GUI, and that caused the same error… it’s rather confusing as I thought that Kopia and Kopia server, would somehow be the same binary.
