Series cannot be added or deleted

[dylan62370 6]

Hello,

When I add and delete a series in the media library I've named Series, it doesn't get deleted in the Emby.

The same is true if I delete the series folder directly from the Linux server.

However, the series I add is still present in the Linux server folder

For example, I no longer have a Harry Potter folder, yet it's still displayed on the Emby...

I've tried clicking on "Update media library files" but nothing changes...

Hi there, what makes you think that it’s stuck? I would just be patient and allow it to finish. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Hello,

I left it running for over 1 hour and it stayed at 2.2%

Hello @Lessaj !

The embyserver.txt file ?

After the scan, I have find the error in the log file.

But I can't see which right it's missing, because on the /var/SAN01/Serie folder I chmod -R 777

A lot of the right stuff was missing from the dossier, but now everything works!

/var seems like an odd place to use to put your mounts but I guess there's nothing really stopping you. chmod 777 is kind of dangerous and not the right way to handle permissions. There's various methods you use between file/folder ownership and groups but if you want to be sure that the emby user has permission to the location you can:

sudo su -s /bin/bash emby

touch /var/SAN01/Serie/afile
