wbravin 3 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 HI all just an update in fiddling with this today and reading pdf, emby documentation and emby forums i feel that all i did in emby is correct and the only issue may be permissions. I reviewed all the permission and the look like this; i have the following users in freenas wbravin uid 1000 part of group media wheel wbravin gid 1000 emby uid 1101 part of media wheel and emby gid 1001 the pool shares ( /mnt/media/movies) are owned by UID wbravin GID wheel, there i have an acl instance for uid emby with full controls the shared mount points ( /mnt/media/movies) are owned by uid wbravin and gid wheel here i have an acl instance for uid emby with full controls the smb shares are owned by UID wbravin with gid wheel here too i have an acl instance for uid emby with full controls i also tried to enter the following in the jail shell (this is something makarai wrote service emby-server stoppw groupmod emby -n emby -g 1101 i substituted 1101 with 1001 which is my emby igdpw usermod emby -n emby -u 1101 -g 1101 here i went -g1001 which is my emby gidchown -R emby:emby /var/db/emby-serversysrc 'emby_server_user=emby' for what ever reason this line did not workservice emby-server start i think i covered all the basis and i do not know what else to do thank you all for being so patient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRobi 159 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 in fiddling with this today and reading pdf, emby documentation and emby forums i feel that all i did in emby is correct and the only issue may be permissions. This is why the screenshots. Ruling out the small and easy things first. I agree your settings in Emby now look correct and your mount points look correct as well. Next test is another simple one. Back into FreeNAS Go to Jails Click your 3 dots for the emby jail and click on Shell (this will open up a shell inside your emby jail type in: cd /media/movies The shell will now be in your movies directory type in: ls Is it giving you a list of all your movies?

wbravin 3 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 hello all SUCCESS Being fairly confidant that i did all correctly, I tried to rebout the server with no joy, then i decided to delete the shared in the pool (/mnt/media/movies) and repopulated the files from my backup. once this was done, I scanned thew movie libraries in emby and it loaded all the movies. I needed to perform the same process for the music and the tv shows library what cases it i have no clue I did not change the shares mountpoints or the jail mountpoints or any of the permissions thank you all for your patience and help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRobi 159 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I'm happy you got it working! I'm not seeing how it is based on the permissions settings I'm seeing, BUT in 11.3 the new ACL manager should in theory make plugin permissions very simple so it's likely something you've done in there that's allowing it vs one of the traditional methods. Regardless, happy it's working for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbravin 3 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 thank you for your help acl manager is complex (i know it's because of my lack of knowledge)I have movies and music running correctly and having trouble with tv shows share. the issue is not with emby but with my freeenas permission. although i have identical setting in music and movies to tv shows for the live of my i cannot figure it out oncve again thank you for your patience and help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can then filter out the unwanted stuff by selecting the right folder inside of Emby. This way you don't need individual mounts for each folder. Is it possible your permissions are different with the different folders on your dataset? Some could be group readable while others may be only owner readable?

wbravin 3 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Are you entering the port when you try to access your jail? You need to go to http://192.168.1.134:8096. Without the :8096 you won't be able to access Emby. As for why you can't configure vnet, without knowing exactly what you're doing and typing in to try to configure it, or what you've setup for your network configuration in FreeNAS, it's hard to try to troubleshoot. hi mR0bi yes i did enter the port Are you entering the port when you try to access your jail? You need to go to http://192.168.1.134:8096. Without the :8096 you won't be able to access Emby. As for why you can't configure vnet, without knowing exactly what you're doing and typing in to try to configure it, or what you've setup for your network configuration in FreeNAS, it's hard to try to troubleshoot. vnet was a dead end so i left it alone. I was trying to establish a static route. instead i ended out setting up the static routes via the router. I got most of it running now i still cannot load the tv shows into emby. when i go to add a new library iin emby and the add the folder i enter /media/tv shows i can see the shows listed below to be selected.. Hence emby sees them. however it will not scan the shows into the new library thank you for persisting and your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbravin 3 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Thank you all for your responses so far i deleted the tv shows on my main freenas box (where i had the problem) and copied and paste fro from my freenas2 (my backup server) and when folder to the tv library in emby I pointed it to the mapped drive in my windows machine and its working. It is in the middle of copying all the tv series and it still has 11 hours to go. Once this is complete I will try to change ownership to nobody with full control once again thank you for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbravin 3 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Hello all after reading all of this post and after tinkering with the acl, I found the source of all of my problems It was the permission in freenas the issue was that with music and tv shows both music artist and tv series have sub folders therefore in the freenas permissions when editing the permission do not forget to check the apply recursively box once again thank you for your patience time and help in this matter. I was greatly appreciated you can mark this one as solved yuppie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
