Cooter 0 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I was running version 3.5.3.0 on my headless Ubuntu server. Uninstalled it, and installed version 4.3.1.0, and I get no web GUI, htop shows no emby running. 'service emby-server status' gives me this: Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/emby-server.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: core-dump) since Mon 2020-02-24 22:11:50 PST; 5min ago Process: 18191 ExecStart=/opt/emby-server/bin/emby-server (code=dumped, signal=ABRT) Main PID: 18191 (code=dumped, signal=ABRT) Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles.SafeFileHandle.Open(String path, OpenFlags flags, Int32 mode) Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOpt Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize) Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at Emby.Server.Implementations.Logging.FileLogger..ctor(String path) Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at Emby.Server.Implementations.Logging.SimpleLogManager.ReloadLogger(LogSeverity severity, CancellationToken cancellati Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: --- End of inner exception stack trace --- Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.WaitAllCore(Task[] tasks, Int32 millisecondsTimeout, CancellationToken cancellationToken Feb 24 22:11:50 server emby-server[18191]: at EmbyServer.Program.Main(String[] args) Feb 24 22:11:50 server systemd[1]: emby-server.service: Main process exited, code=dumped, status=6/ABRT Feb 24 22:11:50 server systemd[1]: emby-server.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'. There are no log files in /var/lib/emby-server/logs If I reinstall the older version, it runs fine again, (but my TV doesn't like the old version.) Where do I go from here?

Luke 36997 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hi, that looks like the server doesn't have write access to it's own data folder. Was there already a system user in your OS called emby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooter 0 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 I believe so, from the older version. Just uninstalled, deleted the user 'emby', and reinstalled the latest version. Still the same status output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 36997 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 As a test can you try once running as root? I just want to know if that allows it to start. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
