schogobong 3 Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) Hi everybody, I am pretty happy with my QNAP-Emby-Kodi combination and after some initial I got most of it to work just fine. There is just one issue that I still was not able to find a solution to. I have regular restarts scheduled in my QNAP power schedule - every Sunday morning at 2a.m. It seems that everytime after my QNAP restarts, I am not able to reach my Emby server and I have to manually stop and start emby in my QNAP App Center. This is not the biggest issue out there but it sure is annoying to do that every week. It seems that similar issues also show up with Plex (e.g. https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/137659/plex-server-wont-start-automatically-after-nas-boots-after-power-failure ). Unfortunately I am not sure, how I am able to transfer the knowledge from Plex to Emby or if it is even the same issue at all. Does anybody have any ideas why I have to manually restart my Emby server everytime I restart my NAS? Thanks for your help! schogobong QNAP TS-431P Most current Emby version from the QNAPClub store Edited February 4, 2018 by schogobong
Luke 39835 Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I guess you would need to configure the app to autorun on startup, right?
schogobong 3 Posted February 4, 2018 Author Posted February 4, 2018 Thanks for your reply Luke! The thing is, the app is actually running,the server just doesn't seem to be. Or at least it can't be reached. I literally have to shut down the app manually first so that I can restart it.
Luke 39835 Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 It sounds to me like you might be trying to start the server before the QNAP's network services are finished initializing. That prevents Emby's http server from starting and therefore you have to restart it. Does that sound right?
schogobong 3 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Posted February 16, 2018 I actually wouldn't know to be honest. It is just a normal restart. Is there a need (and if so a possibility) to delay the start of certain "applications" such as emby?
Luke 39835 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 There needs to be some minimal network stack available in order to bind the http server, so from that standpoint, yes.
schogobong 3 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Posted February 16, 2018 Is there any way to delay the launch of emby?
Luke 39835 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 how are you configuring it to automatically run?
schogobong 3 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Posted February 16, 2018 Not at all. All I did was install the App, which just starts whenever my QNAP starts up. It always says that Emby is running.
Luke 39835 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Ok I've filed this on our internal issue tracker as something we will review in the near future. thanks.
schogobong 3 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Posted February 16, 2018 Great, thank you! Hoping for a solution. Other than that I love it!
Solution lcutts 1 Posted April 9, 2018 Solution Posted April 9, 2018 I solved an issue like this on my TS-451+ by running Sort My QPKGs 1
schogobong 3 Posted April 10, 2018 Author Posted April 10, 2018 Hil lcutts, Thanks for your info! I installed the application on my NAS. When opening it it takes me to NAS:8080/SortMyQPKGs.log Is there anything that I need to do other than installing it or does it take care of the sorting itself in the background?
OneCD 10 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) Hi @@schogobong, I decided to sign-up here and answer your question myself. Is there anything that I need to do other than installing it or does it take care of the sorting itself in the background? It's completely automated, so there's nothing you need to do. The package icon 'open' button in the App Center just shows the last 10 logged operations (I had to provide a way for people to see what was going on in case they needed assistance).

schogobong 3 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Posted April 22, 2018 Hi OneCD, Thank you for your reply and for writing that app! Now I can finally re-enable my power plan All the best, shogobong

PenkethBoy 2066 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 @@Luke Not sure what "this" is do i use OneCD SortMyQPKG - no - mainly because i have very few other packages on my NAS - so its essentially a file server and Emby and have no need of it. Others who have lots of packages will need it to order the start up of packages as the default setup can be a bit random on what order it loads packages in. Just restarted my NAS and Emby starts up fine and works as expected (this is with .51 as behind on updating)

I pretty much only use Emby, QVPN, Download Station, and Emby (+ Qmono + ffmpeg). But I still experienced this issue.
PenkethBoy 2066 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 QVPN and Download station might be your problem as i dont have them on my NAS
