sfatula 185 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 So, came back from a trip, before the trip, Emby on Mac worked fine, had been working, no new content, nothing had changed. Except, when running Emby, it is starting over asking me to config it. In digging a little deeper, it appears the location of the emby-server directory was in the home folder, in my case, /Users/sfatula/emby-server. However, Emby is now (for some unknown reason) looking in /Users/sfatula/.config/emby-server This machine has never ever had this folder prior to today when I rebooted the Mac after an update. When running Emby, it created the folder and asked me to set it up. Why would the folder it is looking for change? As far back as my backups go, it was not underneath .config for 3.5.3. Would hate to start over, any explanation? Could I copy the contents from the original folder to the new folder perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfatula 185 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Adding a symbolic link from /Users/sfatula/.config/emby-server to /Users/sfatula/emby-server seems to work and get 3.5.3 back up. Curious as to what is going on with Emby Server on Mac with 10.14.3? Apparently I should not update to 4 right since there appears to be some sort of bug?

Luke 36997 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Hi, at this point I'm not sure why you're running into this. Nobody has reported it before and I haven't reproduced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfatula 185 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Ok, so, what directory is emby-server supposed to be in? Looking back at a year of Time Machine backups, it was never in ~/.config/emby-server, it was ~/emby-server, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I think it's been .config for a while, for fresh installs at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfatula 185 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Ok, I will then move it there since that's where 4.0 wants it. I see messages about 4.0.2 and Mojave not starting, is it just that person? Is it "safe" to install emby 4 on Mojave on MacOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I have not been able to reproduce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfatula 185 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Updated to 4.0.2, let it upgrade, and, all seems fine. Thanks. I notice it still doesn't shutdown right, i.e., clicking restart emby on the server dashboard doubles the number of processes to: ps waux | grep -i emby sfatula 928 0.0 1.2 6918900 298316 ??

Luke 36997 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Yea this is a MacOS-specific issue we're still trying to chase down where shutdown doesn't always shut everything down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
