Ceten 27 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 HiI'm just going through the setup of a new Emby server on my Synology DS918+.The package installed just fine but while going through the setup wizard I noticed the dropdown for adding a folder to my media library didn't work.After selecting one of the folders on my NAS it just closes the dropdown without selecting the chosen folder. Not a big problem as I could just enter the path manually but I thought I'd let you know
Luke 38498 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 Please attach the emby server log, thanks.
Ceten 27 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Posted December 28, 2017 Please attach the emby server log, thanks. When proceeding I noted Emby did not find anything in the shared folder due to missing permissions. I tried again to add a folder after giving read/write permissions and now it works without any errors. The log also shows an access denied error so I guess we can blame this on me not setting the correct permissions before trying to add the folder: 2017-12-28 15:10:38.622 Error HttpServer: Error processing request *** Error Report *** Version: 3.2.50.0 Command line: /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/server/MediaBrowser.Server.Mono.exe -package synology -programdata /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/var -ffmpeg /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/ffmpeg/bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/ffmpeg/bin/ffprobe -restartpath /var/packages/EmbyServer/scripts/restart Operating system: Unix 4.4.15.0 64-Bit OS: True 64-Bit Process: True User Interactive: False Mono: 5.2.0.224 (tarball Mon Sep 25 18:34:32 CST 2017) Processor count: 4 Program data path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/var Application directory: /volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/releases/v3.2.50.0 System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '/volume1/Series' is denied. ... Maybe it would be an option in this case to show a message pointing to the wiki (https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Synology-:-Setting-Up-Your-Media-Library-Share) which helped me solve this? It might help people who are new to Emby/Synology.
Luke 38498 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 Yes that is a good idea. Thanks for the feedback.
