dolphin 17 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I'm running FreeNAS 11.2. I've created a jail with command iocage create -n emby -r 11.2-RELEASE ip4_addr="lagg0|10.0.0.6/24" boot=on mounted my media folder iocage fstab --add emby /mnt/zpool/media /media nullfs rw 0 0 fired up the emby jail console iocage console emby followed instructions and installed emby-server stable > https://emby.media/freebsd-server.html then enabled it as a service to start at jail boot-up and eventually started it sysrc emby_server_enable="YES" service emby-server start Service gets started, everything seems to work just fine, but whenever FreeNAS gets rebooted, all of my 6 jails are auto-started and so are all their configured services except for the emby server. So I ran iocage console emby to open a shell inside the emby jail, ran ps aux to show running processes and emby is not there. Starting the emby service manually returns the following, wierd, error. root@emby:/root# service emby-server start Starting emby_server. term: Undefined variable. But if I exit to the FreeNAS shell and run root@freenas:/root# iocage restart -s emby Soft restarting emby (emby) the emby server does get started! What would you do?? I'm at a loss! Thanks.

makarai 108 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Hi, tbh, i would use the normal jail creation in DHCP mode, change from DHCP to Static in the gui, if you need to. (I just force my router/firewall to give the jail a specific ip, and stick to dhcp). This creates a virtual adapter that attaches to your lagg0 device, and creates a full functioning network stack, imporant if you want to use mutlicast (for live tv) EASY :Start a new Jail with: cd /tmp wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ma-karai/iocage-plugin-emby/master/emby-server.json iocage fetch -P dhcp=on vnet=on bpf=yes allow_raw_sockets=1 -n emby-server.json --branch 'master' MORE COMPLICATED: If you use the Freebsd installation instruction for a jail you need to do some other things as well, i.e. Your start parameter needs to be defined with boot=on and some other things. iocage fetch -P --name emby-server.json ip4_addr="vnet0|192.168.0.112/24" defaultrouter="192.168.0.1" vnet="on" allow_raw_sockets="1" boot="on" host_hostname="emby" host_domainname="" and maybe: # Enable the service sysrc -f /etc/rc.conf emby_server_enable="YES" # Start the service service emby-server start 2>/dev/null Edited April 26, 2019 by makarai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makarai 108 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) What freenas version? Latest i suppose? Can you create a normal jail, with the GUI Jails > Add > fillout name > 11.2-release > next ? DHCP ticked vnet ticked next -> submit start the jail enter the jail shell sudo pkg install mono libass fontconfig freetype2 fribidi gnutls iconv opus samba48 sqlite3 libtheora libva libvorbis webp libx264 libzvbi libraw pkg add -f https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.0.1.0/emby-server-freebsd_4.0.1.0_amd64.txz sysrc -f /etc/rc.conf emby_server_enable="YES" service emby-server start 2>/dev/null restart jail if it gets an ip address add port and check Edited January 27, 2019 by makarai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolphin 17 Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Thank you makarai, this worked! So as far as I can understand, by diffing this new jail's properties over my previous broken emby jail, these are the properties that make all the difference: dhcp=on bpf=yes vnet=on All my other jails work just fine with fixed IP addresses so I never bothered but emby is different!

Thank you for helping me figure this out! You can run it in static mode, but if you want a full networkstack (needed for livetv) you have to use a virtual interface (vnet0 or similar) if you direct attach the jail to em0 or igb0 or so some things just dont work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makarai 108 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) Right, I get it. Thanks! Sorry for being a little to assertive. I always loved static ip addresses but always run into some problems, so i just went to DHCP everything and let the firewall push the static addresses to the clients, and it works flawelessly.

dolphin 17 Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 One last thing: since I'd rather give my servers fixed IP addresses than create static DHCP leases for them on my pfSense router, I modified slightly your jail creation command as follows (might help others): iocage create -r 11.2-RELEASE boot=on vnet=on bpf=yes ip4_addr="vnet0|10.0.0.6/24" defaultrouter="10.0.0.1" -n emby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dolphin 17 Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 Thank you, that is helpful! One more question: can you please clarify in what way Emby needs to allow raw network sockets? I've read the iocage man page and wikipedia so I've learned more or less what they're for, but I don't understand why you recommend allowing them for Emby server. For Live TV? For multicast?

Solution dolphin 17 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Solution Share Posted January 31, 2019 Just to follow up on myself, I eventually understood why I was getting that wierd term: Undefined variable error! I had made some wierd modifications to root's .cshrc .... nothing to do with Emby!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had made some wierd modifications to root's .cshrc .... nothing to do with Emby!! this is why it's generally advised not to diddle with root, and if you need a customized environment (shell swap most often) that you use the toor account to do this. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
