Emby: 3.1.2-12.1

Debian: 8 w/Openmediavault 3.0.59 (Erasmus) 

 

I do not know why it won't start. Only thing I can think is because I removed the test flash drives from the machine and it can't mount the drives.

go to

/var/lib/emby-server/root/default

and remove the folders for libraries that are no longer valid.

Okay.

So, if a hard drive fails this can happen? Or is it because 100% of the mountable items are missing?

We have updated the server to better handle this for the next release but in the meantime you will need to do what i described above. Thanks.

Am I removing the entire directory Movies / TV  or just the mounts within the option.xml and Movies.mblink?

if all mounts are no  longer valid then delete the entire folder, otherwise you can just remove the individual mounts.

Did as you said and removed the folders as those were only test mounts. Still won't start.

I noticed in the log it is still looking to /media/8..

Even after I removed the directory. As seen above by the ls command.

Yea it might be due to info stored in the database. Those folders will contain option.xml files. For all of them, open up those files and disable the realtime monitor by setting EnableRealtimeMonitor to false.

The files don't exist anymore. I deleted the folders that had options.xml and movies.mblink

There are no folders under root/default - Those were Movies and TV but I removed them both as the drives that it was using were removed.

You have a few options:

  • Temporarily restore the dead paths so that the server can start and you can remove them
  • Update to the beta
  • Remove your library.db database file and start again. Please note, this now contains watch data so if you go this route, hopefully you've been using the backup plugin to backup user data on a regular basis.

I know the logs work at one time as I cleared the log folder to make it easier for myself to read a clean one but now it doesn't seem to be producing any logs. I am looking in /var/lib/emby-server/logs/
 
FYI - I enabled SSL and report wan. Rebooted server after that and now that is where I sit.

root@Tictac-PC:/var/lib/emby-server/logs# /usr/bin/emby-server start

env: /usr/lib/emby-server/x86_64-linux-gnu: Permission denied
 

 

Should I be able to run this? 

 

(Talk to me like I am two year old on this matter as I am very new to linux)
