If you are running an Ubuntu or Debian server and mono version 3.10 or older or 4.0 or newer and are experiencing random crashing of Emby with no errors in your logs, you might be experiencing an issue related to a bug in the kernel. Finally one of the Sonarr devs popped in and helped us figure out a possible solution to the problem. (that quote is from http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/19955-emby-crashing-ubuntu-server/page-5&do=findComment&comment=207271) Once users started upgrading their kernels to as new as 4.0, they reported that the stability of Emby has greatly improved. Here are some instructions on how to upgrade your kernel without having to do a distro upgrade: http://askubuntu.com/questions/119080/how-to-update-kernel-to-the-latest-mainline-version-without-any-distro-upgrade Also, a few users reported that they were still experiencing crashed even though they weren't running Emby in a VM. Many of them also reported that a kernel upgrade actually fixed their problem. If you are still having issues with Emby crashing after a kernel upgrade and you don't know why, please let us know.
