neneland 2 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi, Nice to meet all of you. Sorry my bad english ... I have just installed emby in my Synology NAS DS216J. I have DSM 7 installed. When I install Emby Server the "embysrv" user is not created in DSM, so I can't give the right permisions, so I can't add my videos folder to a new library ... Can anyone help me ??

ice00m8n 1 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 @Luke Evening Luke, So I decided I wanted to reinstall Emby because I wasn't able to access it outside of my network even after doing I think everything right via Port Forwarding. Anyways so I decided to reinstall Emby and deleted also the user etc only naturally I left all my movies etc. So now I have the next problem I can't seem to figure out that I get a automatic "Forbidden" when I specify the 192.168.1.1**:8096 (from a pc in my network) I think I botched it as soon as I deleted the emby home user/share. What can I try to get this fixed?? Heeelp THanks in advance.... Ger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally the .1 address is your router. You would instead use the IP of the host Emby is installed on. So if your Synology NAS has the IP of 192.168.1.10 you could access Emby Server as http://192.168.1.10:8096 That IP is also what you would need to use to setup port forwarding as well. Give that a try and let us know how you make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice00m8n 1 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Dear Cayars, The IP address is actually "192.168.1.173:8096/web/index.html#!/home" and this is giving.. Forbidden Kind Regards, Ger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forbidden Kind Regards, Ger Best guess is you've configured Emby Server network settings/restrictions to cause that. You may have to edit the server config file manually to dig out of that hole. @cayars this probably deserves a help article so that we can just point people to it. Thanks.

Or would you rather try to figure this out here in the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice00m8n 1 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) Dear Cayars, Please if you could that would be REALLY really appreciated. I live in Haarlem, The Netherlands in regards to time difference. Kind Regards, Ger Edited December 1, 2021 by ice00m8n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37058 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Best guess is this is being caused by emby server network settings. @cayars please add this to your list to create a help topic on this so that we can just point users to it. You will probably need to edit the server config file to loosen up whatever restrictions were configured that is preventing your access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice00m8n 1 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) @cayars Thanks so much again for remotely connecting and helping me sort this one out. Couldn't have done it without you!! Edited December 3, 2021 by ice00m8n 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37058 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 what was the solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice00m8n 1 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Dear Luke, From what I saw @cayars had made a number of changes in the config file that seemed stuck from the previous version of Emby. The main things I noticed that he had adjusted where the following: 1. After turning off the Emby Server it was still noted in the config file to be online. (done via ssh) 2.So he adjusted this to false while the server was stopped and saved it. Oh yes and from what I noticed he had adjusted the local IP address too at one point. Not sure though to what extent that helped/did. @cayars could you please specify more what you'd adjusted? Oh yes and Cayars was so helpful that he even helped with getting my port forwarding sorted :) And again thanks goes out to your amazing support team @Luke @Cayars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The issue was actually one line in the system.xml file where you assigned the server IP to the blacklist. So you essentially banned Emby from talking to itself. The safe way to do this is to first shutdown Emby if running and make a copy of the system.xml file just in case you mess up or want to revert back to it. Then you edit the system.xml file (nano is good for linux) and basically want to remove all traces of IPs, domains, certs. Save and restart Emby and try again. I'm going to be documenting this for a KB article this weekend as well as include a sample system.xml file there for reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
