Fratopolis 62 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Almost the same thing happened to me, as one person said I would update then the server would not restart. When I manually restarted it would be on the previous version. i basically did what Luke suggested. I downloaded the latest portable version, extracted, then laid it over my installed version. And it was working fine again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nagetech 66 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Howdy! Just started noticing this recently since upgrading to Version 3.2.36.0. The server seems to crash an random/unexpected times. I've followed all updates religiously and server has been rock solid for months now, until now I am running windows server 2012 r2 and literally nothing else has changed on the server besides the update. Including the log file hoping you can figure it out @@Luke Thanks ahead of time server-63645387998.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8282 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Since there are lots other topics with a lot of "Me too" and the same problem, and a suggestion of reinstalling from the download page and it working. Why not give it a try. Like this one. Edited November 5, 2017 by Happy2Play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexisdude 133 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Would like to inject this ; as I too had server side crashes - with no real instance in the logs that suggested the reason. Manually installing from the DL page did not correct it.. why would I along with a bunch of other people be receiving botched up updates unless there was something really wrong? 3.2.34 worked for me ; all plugins included.. and now plugins are culprit? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/47386-extremely-slow-web-ui-performance/?p=507436 Edited November 5, 2017 by lexisdude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it is due to a third party library that was updated and is having some issues for certain users. That's why installing the latest over the top resolves the issue. Thanks.

lexisdude 133 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Perhaps my issue is entirely different then - as the crashes occur with visual artifacts on the webui.

Sorry, that's what I meant to say I had run - I clicked on the Stable Release button and went through that installation (it downloaded setup.exe, which I then ran).

Luke 37071 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Ok, the reason why I mentioned that is because based on your log it doesn't appear that you've actually done this. Perhaps the install may have had an error. Try doing it again but this time make sure you've shut down emby server first. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT 2: I am just waiting for the server to fully re-scan my media library, but so far, I don't seem to be having the crashing issue any longer - the crashing is back - it seemed to start when I asked the "Auto Box Sets" plugin to refresh my collections - I'm not sure the Auto Box Sets plugin is to blame either now Edited November 6, 2017 by stuclark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfir3 114 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Just crashed after the server finally updated to 3.2.36.0 (it was stuck on 3.2.35.0 for a day or two since every time the emby process was restarted the installation wouldn't complete properly). Last night the server updated to 3.2.36.0 and this morning around 11:30 AM the server process crashed and I had to manually restart it when I got home 6 hours later. Hoping this won't happen again, but based on the feedback in this thread I'm not terribly optimistic. Good luck resolving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfir3 114 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Try installing from the website on top of your existing version. Thanks ! This option was proposed to other users in this thread without success. I will wait for an actual fix in a new build of Emby or until the problem is pinpointed and resolved. The sad thing is that I didn't even want auto-updates on. I turned it off after installing the latest server version about a month ago. About two weeks later I wanted to update to 3.2.34.0 so I performed a manual update. Now I realize that since performing that manual update, Emby decided to change my auto-update settings and turned them all on. It's a drag, but I will have to be more vigilant about checking for this bug whenever I perform manual updates in the future until it has been resolved.
