crashkelly 62 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Have been testing some more and have got my "TV Shows" library back now I looked through my existing libraries and saw that the ones that were still loading properly were in the form of "\\SERVER\Library" and the ones that were not were in the form of "\\SERVER\Library\" (trailing slash) I have attached the latest log file and am going to try another library right now but it will take awhile to scan Will update again after Thanks embyserver.txt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6771 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 @@Luke Just checked a friend's server that updated to Stable 26 and although it updated OK, it wasn't an unattended update, as it needed to install the C++ update that others have mentioned. If you change something that requires this sort of intervention, then you need to publish this information before you release it, otherwise automated updates will take Emby down and it will be unusable. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8296 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Did a test updating 3.5.3.0 (oldest available I could find) to 4.2.1.0, then to 4.3.0.26. The test system already had updated C++. Had one database only library, 121 dummy movies. Upgraded from 3.5.3.0 to 4.2.1.0. allowed plugins to update and restarted again. No apparent issues. Did not look at or configure any setting, only a library scan. Then upgraded from 4.2.1.0 to 4.3.0.26, no apparent issues. Library folder was not lost. Then I did a 3.5.3.0 to 4.3.0.26 test. Library folder was lost. Library scan added folder and re-fetched everything. So I would guess there could be a situation in previous installs this could happen. Only tested on Windows. Did not do any Restore testing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Thanks for doing that. Yea if someone is coming all the way from 3.5, they will need to run a scan to restore some things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremas 106 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Thanks for the info. The patched version should prevent others from having a problem once the update is re-released. So, I found out last night that I'm getting bit by this one too. It seems to be only one library (TV) as the others were more recently moved/edited. Unfortunately, my TV library has the most custom content (edited text in the metadata manager for specials) so I'm really hoping I can get it all back. Other than doing a scan I haven't done anything to try to fix it yet, but am unsure where to start. It sounds like some of the others who have tried to add back the directory had some issues. Is there a re-released update on the way, or should I just dive in and apply the patch? I'm on Windows FWIW. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesponty 1 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) Quick post just in case it helps someone else, I still had issues through 4.3.0.26 with paths such as \\x.x.x.x\movies\. Folder count was zero even after rescan. Changing the path to \\x.x.x.x\movies allowed everything to start working again. The trailing "\" in the path seemed to be an issue for me.

crashkelly 62 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Ok, so I hope this can help out as I was able to replicate the issue on one of my smaller libraries. Prior to replicating, I had gone through the non-working libraries, removed them completely, and then readded using paths without the trailing slashes and all were working as expected. What I did: 1. Turned on debug logging 2. Turned off Emby Server 3. Removed all existing logs 4. Started Emby Server 5. Removed my 3D library completely 6. Let the resulting library scan complete 7. Added the 3D library with the path "\\EMBY-SERVER\movies_3D$\" 8. Let the resulting library scan complete 9. Checked the library and found "No items found" 10. Removed my 3D library completely 11. Let the resulting library scan complete 12. Added the 3D library with the path "\\EMBY-SERVER\movies_3D$" 13. Let the resulting library scan complete 14. Checked the library and found that all movies existed as expected 15. Turned off debug logging Would be happy to test anything else if it would assist. Cheers EDIT: In both cases the library scans took the same amount of time so the path was being accessed as part of the scan so the issue may reside in the display of the titles that are part of the library as opposed to the scanning or the library itself. embyserver.txt Edited November 23, 2019 by crashkelly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8296 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 So it would appear .25/.26 has a trailing slash path issue no matter the path type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgriffith 65 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Well, bit the bullet and upgraded to .26 from a REALLY old original Mediabrowser install and had no issues. I did check my paths for trailing /'s beforehand just to be sure and there were none. So all seems ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnyhunter 5 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Don‘t receive 4.3.026 through autoupdate. Is it because I patched it with the fix for 4.3.025? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoclay 0 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Same problem here with Qnap x64. Upgraded from 4.2.1.0 to 4.3.0.26, long time lifetime premiere user. In my case the TV library path still shows in the console, but no shows, scans take hours. Edit: Even though the upgrade was performed, And I have the 4.3.0.25+ Bug, in the dashboard it still shows 4.2.1.0. Interesting...

unibeta 7 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 In my case, I can now report a success.Setup: Ember Server on a virtual machine with Windows 10 Pro - Library on a Synology NASI had previously entered "\\NAS\video\" as the path.Deleting and re-entering immediately did not help.I had also mapped the paths in Windows and now entered the drive letter "V:\" instead.Now the library fills up again.I had previously installed the patch from this thread and can't tell if it would have worked without it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wavecrest 4 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I can also confirm that following an 4.3.0.26 auto-update, removing the final slash in the folder path cured the problem for me. I didn't see any way to simply edit the existing path, so I removed the folder and re-added it, at which time I was able to delete the slash at the end. Pretty easy fix.

AxeMan 22 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 It affects users who created their libraries in a version of Emby Server prior to 3.5, and never changed library paths in any version that came after that. So essentially setup the library paths and left them untouched for a long time. This could also have happened if you created the libraries on 4.X by restoring from a backup created by a very old version of the server. So I apologize but I missed this as part of the upgrade procedure into 4.3. Beta users are generally more willing to reinstall fresh every now and then. You've probably done that with your beta install at some point along the way and that's why you never ran into it there. @@Luke - thank you for the quick fix. I installed the patch and got my libraries back, somewhat. Ran a scan, and rebooted for good measure. But for some reason, it's still reporting zero items. My default/system/admin user see the items (like TV Show library - Show but no Seasons or items below that. Other users just see the library name, but no items. But, at some point things eventually started flowing back in. Thanks again for your quick attention to this. I too had server installed back when this was MediaBrowser... so definitely from the old era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
