Scrat 0 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 See my last posted image. That Hooked folder should show up inside other if I do "ls", right? It doesn't. Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRobi 159 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 @@Scrat Hmmm that is definitely an odd one. It may have something to do with mounting in the GUI and as @@makarai suggested each folder may need to be mounted individually if done that way. You seem willing to use shell which is a good thing. Mounting a dataset through the terminal is a very simple command and we know this method works 100% because it's what most of us use. First, unmount everything you've mounted from GUI. Then do this in shell from root (aka before you go into the emby jail using the console command) iocage fstab -a emby "/mnt/databank01/media /media nullfs rw 0 0" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrat 0 Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 What does that command do? I'll be home around 18h00 CST. FreeBSD 11.2 beta 3 don't let one simply delete a mount point from within a jail, so I'll likely have to redo the Emby jail like the other day.

makarai 108 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) @@Scrat, i am not sure if you understood me correctly or if i might be misunderstanding you. the media folder in the jail itself is fine but instead of linking /mnt/databank01/media/ -> /mnt/iocage/jails/emby-server/root/media please link /mnt/databank01/media/Movies -> /mnt/iocage/jails/emby-server/root/media Alternatively you should log into your jail, go to the rootfolder where you find the /mnt and /media folder and do the following mkdir Movies then you have another folder to mount into exit the jail specific shell and open a freenas shell and type iocage fstab -a emby-server "/mnt/databank01/media/Movies /Movies nullfs rw 0 0" Edited October 3, 2018 by makarai 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk fstab stands for file system table and -a is for 'add'. So what this command does is mount the file system at /mnt/databank/media to whatever directory you choose inside your jail such as /media or /movies, /tv etc.. There's a known bug in the new FreeNAS beta when mounting a file system to a folder that doesn't already exist. The /media folder does exist, but I'm not sure if that bug extends to folders that don't exist inside the media folder (ie: /media/Movies or /Media/Music). Using fstab through shell we know 100% works and will help us eliminate the possible bug as a source of your issue. Follow @@makarai 's steps above and try mounting just your Movies folder and then go into Emby and load those into your library and see what happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrat 0 Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) Gotta delete Emby to hopefully get things working. I can't edit a mount point with it creating a new one and not letting me delete the other. Edit 1) Well curse whatever happened.. but Plex sees the 'Movies1' folder I made in terminal under root. Edit 2) Now Emby sees it. Looks like my pet project will be creating folders in shell. Edit 4) @@makarai - Looks like that last snippet of code you gave me to run, made my files invisible in Finder.

The three I added previously are.. but they got moved. /mnt/databank01/media/Movies1 - where the original three wereI log into the Emby console, and go to.. /media/Movies1 - my original three got moved hereWhat gives?

Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk i am confused, why you say finder what are you exactly talking about? And what do you mean by they moved? nothing should be moving. Emby is like a virtual machine with its own root folder so when you type the command in that i gave you you link the one folder from your nas into the virtual machine from emby, nothing is physically moved. this is your nas location : /mnt/databank01/media/Movies1 this is your emby location /media/Movies1 Edited October 4, 2018 by makarai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrat 0 Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 If nothing should've moved, why are the original three movies not in the folder I put them in? I'm using a Mac..

Finder is like Windows file explorer. Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk They definitely don't move. Emby runs in a jail, which is it's own little self contained environment. When you mount a folder using the commands, it creates a symbolic link in the area you define. So when you're in your emby jail and go to /media/Movies in the background what's really happening is it's bringing you to /mnt/databank01/media/movies So no files are moved at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrat 0 Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 I know that's how it should work.

MRobi 159 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Yes Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk My suspicion is that when you created the Movies1 folder it must have been inside the Emby jail and you unintentionally transferred the files into the jail instead of linking the directory. Only thought I've got if they show inside /media/Movies1 in the jail but not in the main dataset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrat 0 Posted October 5, 2018 Author Share Posted October 5, 2018 Maybe I'll have to wait till RC1 and see if things work better. Honestly, I made the folder in both places. I have yet to transfer files through shell. I did see the command a few days ago, but I don't remember it. Steps in order: Make Movies1 folder in /mnt/databank01/media Make same folder in /media inside Emby jail Ran that command above ending with '..0 0"' Opened Emby, scanned library Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
