thefirstofthe300 291 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 The Emby server package is now in the community repo so you can install with pacman. The beta package was renamed to emby-server-devel. The git package is the same. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alucryd 216 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 @lockheed: Sounds like you upgraded from an earlier version and didn't read the upgrade notes during installation. The emby user is now created with UID:GID 422:422, but existing emby users are left untouched, it appears you merged the conf changes so /var/lib/emby doesn't have the right permissions. If you don't care about your existing library, either chown emby:emby -R /var/lib/emby or delete the emby user and group and reinstall any of the emby packages. Or if you already have a library, either follow the instructions from the install message or point emby to your old programdata folder, /var/lib/emby-server.

Guest Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) I never installed emby before. All I did was follow a guide which comprised of two steps: sudo useradd -r -s /bin/false emby pacman -S emby-server Edited September 23, 2015 by lockheed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alucryd 216 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Well, don't follow shady guides, delete that user and reinstall emby. The official guide says nothing about creating the emby user yourself, every package on arch takes care of creating its user(s) anyway, there's never been a need for manual creation.

_010101_ 0 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) I have registered more changes, than just what was stated after the installation. I set up Emby after the name change from Mediabrowser with the AUR-Package a few months ago. After the last update, emby-server wouldn't start. What happened was, that there are two files in /etc/conf.d/ /etc/conf.d/emby-server /etc/conf.d/emby-server.conf The first file came with the update… and only the changes there, will let you keep your old database! $ cat /etc/conf.d/emby-server MONO=/usr/bin/mono FFMPEG=/usr/bin/ffmpeg FFPROBE=/usr/bin/ffprobe PROGRAM_DATA=/var/lib/emby-server With that I got emby running again. But the migration-script doesn't work for me. When I run sudo emby-migrate-database /var/lib/emby-server /var/lib/emby I get Usage: emby-migrate-database {-u user} {-g group} old_path_full new_path_full Default user: emby Default group: emby and nothing is copied. Adding emby as user and group in the line gets the same result. Maybe the first part of the post helps some users, who also ran into trouble with the update.

alucryd 216 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Will this fix my issue too, where I can't get emby-server to properly start after a fresh install? No, the problem was with an optional script. A fresh install should work in all cases, provided you followed the official instructions. I'm assuming you did not, then you can run the server manually as emby to get some terminal output, it should tell you what you did wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrkerr 1 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Official instructions are just the three steps at https://emby.media/downloads/linux-server/ , correct? # pacman -S emby-server # systemctl start emby-server Visit http://localhost:8096 Starting the server with systemctl seems to be failing (per the output I posted above). I'll try running the server manually tonight when I get home. I'm assuming you mean just run # emby-server ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting the server with systemctl seems to be failing (per the output I posted above). I'll try running the server manually tonight when I get home. I'm assuming you mean just run # emby-server ? Not exactly, you're supposed to replicate what the systemd unit is doing.

If I want to start over with fresh permissions, could I just uninstall emby-server, remove the emby user and group, then reinstall?

Just a thought, have you tried deleting that file and running the upgrade again? The file might have just not downloaded correctly. If that doesn't work, let us know and I am sure alucryd will fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
