emby server crash Ubuntu 16.04

[nurgle 3]

Hi hope you can help,

 

For the last 2 nights my emby sever has crashed during the night so wake up the next morning to it not running. After the first night I setup Monit to try and make sure it's restarted if it crashes but this hasn't worked either. From last nights crash:

Monit also failed to restart it after the crash and gave up after 5 attempts.

 

It's been rock solid for such a long time, I always keep the server updated and don't have any plugins installed. The server is used as a back end for Kodi. Logs attached, any help would be apprecited!

 

Cheers,

 

David

Hi, try rebooting your system and then I think it should start up fine. Let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Hi Luke, I got the server running again its just that it's crashed 2 nights in a row so I'm wondering if a recent update is the cause or if you can see from the logs why it crashed.

 

I'll see how it goes again tonight.

 

Cheers

@@nurgle I would suggest trying disabling the realtime monitor for your emby libraries. 

 

Apologies for the disruption. Try to hang in there. We are in process of dumping the mono runtime in favor of the smaller and faster .net core runtime from Microsoft. I've yet to see anyone report a crash of this nature using .net core. Hopefully in the not too distant future our ubuntu package will be switched over. Thanks.

Excellent thanks look forward to it! Server didn't crash last night so hopefully be stable until the new builds arrive.

 

Thanks again

@@nurgle Give the new Emby Beta a try, you won't regret it! I've been using it since the beginning and had zero (literally zero) crashes. Check my guide https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/50198-step-by-step-ubuntudebian-installation-for-testing-emby-on-net-core/page-1
