okseby 1 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) So I setup a new server recently and restored from a backup using the plugin from the old server and rsynced over all the media. And I'm having a weird issue where the Movies library detects no items after a full scan, I have to do a refresh metadata on the library for the movies to appear but then any subsequent library scan wipes them all out again. What makes this odd is that the issue didn't exist on the prior server and all the files are the same. I have the files inside the Emby users home folder and I already did chown emby:emby on all the media. I don't have anything related to Over the Garden Wall in my movies folder or any folder/library so I suspect this is where the issue stems from, especially since this library has a content type of movies so idk where its getting any sort of season info from. 2024-04-26 18:36:09.489 Info App: Deleting path /var/lib/emby/metadata/library/f2/f278045193cbf5271bf75805b18ed6ea 2024-04-26 18:36:11.797 Info LibraryMonitor: Over the Garden Wall (/home/emby/media/movies) will be refreshed. 2024-04-26 18:36:12.251 Info App: Removing virtual season Over the Garden Wall 1 2024-04-26 18:36:12.251 Info App: Removing item from database, Type: Season, Name: Season 1, Path: , Id: 118306 2024-04-26 18:36:12.267 Info App: Deleting path /var/lib/emby/metadata/library/68/6811d26dc3b59c91b1ae6de89d9bd1d1 2024-04-26 18:36:12.267 Info App: Removing virtual season Over the Garden Wall 20 2024-04-26 18:36:12.267 Info App: Removing item from database, Type: Season, Name: Season 20, Path: , Id: 118307 2024-04-26 18:36:12.733 Info App: Deleting path /var/lib/emby/metadata/library/92/92640788442edc6ad13a27d245c84880 2024-04-26 18:36:12.733 Info App: Removing virtual season Over the Garden Wall 3 2024-04-26 18:36:12.733 Info App: Removing item from database, Type: Season, Name: Season 3, Path: , Id: 118308 2024-04-26 18:36:12.761 Info App: Deleting path /var/lib/emby/metadata/library/53/533fd88c63c563908f0903681177c873 2024-04-26 18:36:12.761 Info App: Removing virtual season Over the Garden Wall 19 2024-04-26 18:36:12.761 Info App: Removing item from database, Type: Season, Name: Season 19, Path: , Id: 118309 2024-04-26 18:36:12.856 Info App: Deleting path /var/lib/emby/metadata/library/10/1042beeeb57962a2ec8fd61660455d51 embyserver.txt Edited April 26 by okseby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okseby 1 Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 I also have a single show in my TV shows library that for some reason is detecting a bunch of files from a completely different folder that the library nor any other is configured to scan.

sa2000 7 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Are all the media folder paths exactly as before ? and is the directory structure exactly as before? What backup settings options did you have selected on this screen in Backup & Restore settings and do you happen to still have logs saved from the first launch after the restore? Do you have any old server database backups that we can compare the current database with - to do spot check on media paths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okseby 1 Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 I ended up just deleting the entire /var/lib/emby path to rebuild the server manually, the backup seems to have messed everything up as after that the issue was resolved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
