ThierryD 2 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Hi! I must have done something wrong migrating to DSM 7 RC and then migrating to Emby 7 4.6.2.0. I lost users, libraries etc... reCreating users is OK. reCretating a new library fails : "The Path could not be found". I did an uninstall/install a several times but it changes nothing. Maybe a right access problem but I deleted emby_pkg_ user during one of uninstall/reinstall session and this user isn't recretaed during a new install. Is there a way to uninstall and clean completely all configs files to make a fully cleany install? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThierryD 2 Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 Hi, I saw this post after installing Emby 7, so did not follow the steps and thi is why I assume I did something wrong . For some steps It's not clear for me : Move anything that users may have created in the old emby share elsewhere => not clear for me. Libraries? Install the DSM 7 package : Ok Delete the old emby share => not clear for me Delete the emby__PKG_ user => Ok Delete the video group => not clear for me At this point, my opinion is that the simpliest way is to do a clean install and recreate my libraries, but when I reinstall the "corrupted" configuration is used.

Carlo 4330 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Hi, the answers to your questions should be in that thread. If not just ask for clarification on any step you don't understand in that thread so those familiar with the steps can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37096 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Hi @roots89, why the confusion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roots89 2 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 @Luke Because I have added how to reach the "internal users" for the other people which are checking this post. On my side it took a while to find that and I thought I can help the community with this info. I don't understand the answer from @cayars which has nothing to do with my reply.

Carlo 4330 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 My reply wasn't to you but to anyone having trouble with the upgrade of DSM 7 and Emby Server for DSM 7. It also shows what you mentioned in the video. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocksmith 0 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) Ok. Never saw this thread before synology 7 upgrade. Installed emby 7 beta upgrade and updated. Now emby opens with new setup , no existing libraries or users. Thought ok ill just start afresh (Even though this will take time). Well paths not found when trying to add folders ect. Cannot even add a thing. Is there a work around for this or save / or access my existing data , user settings ect... instead of a fresh install as a last resort. Is There a clear step by step guide to use existing setup? Thanks Edited July 1, 2021 by Rocksmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only have a look at the video mentioned by @cayars Spoiler: the emby folder must be moved somewhere inside the system. System folders are accessible only through ssh (terminal). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can also use free app WinSCP with easy to use GUI to manage folders and files. It also has a command line by pressing the icon in the app to run linux commands. I login as root in WinSCP app, as I had already changed its synology password via SSH (google for that). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 WinSCP is more an FTP program but is a nice tool to have for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard many times about WinSCP I never checked it. As I use total commander and mobaxterm in some cases WinSCAP will be usefull. Thanks for the hint.
