Cannot add libraries in NFSv4 mount

[JeffWScott 2]

I have my main server that has an attached file-system from another ubuntu server which houses the media files.  The mount point is /share/media.

 

When I try and add my /share/media/TVshows to my emby  TV library I get "The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again." ..  I can browse from the emby web client to the directory, so it obviously exists..

 

I'm not sure where to start because I didn't have any problem adding this location into Plex...  it just worked.

 

I added the emby user to the group that has access to the directory and I also switched to the emby user and validated that the user can browse the folders.

 

 

Where do I start here?  Very new to emby.

 

if it helps my connection string in /etc/exports is:

 

/share/media  192.168.1.76(rw,sync,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.79(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

What's the output of:

ls -hlpa /share/media/TVshows

?

?

 

Switched to emby user using "sudo su -s /bin/bash emby "

 

ran "ls -hlpa /share/media/TVshows"

 

and I get a listing of the TVshows directory, as I would expect.  

 

permissions on the directories is "drwxr-xr-x"

Right, 

 

Yeah that looks fine then - have you restarted the emby service since adding the emby user to the group? That type of change requires a fresh session.

No, but I'll try this tonight and let you know.

Works now, thank you!!

 

Also the buffering issues I was having with Plex went away!!!
