Missing user and group when installing Emby 4.6.4 in DSM 7

[anon123 2]

Hi all, 

hope you are fine?

Have the following issue:

Had a previous version running on DSM 6 and updated my Synology to 7 (but didn´t read the forum regarding the migration path...).

I´ve had a look in my SSH connection but didn´t found anything within /volume1/Emby as long as the Emby folder is still not there.

Right now I have the issue, that the Emby 4.6.4 installation didn´t create the emby user or any other group on my Synology.

I think that´s the reason why I´m not able to create a new content library and start out of scratch right now because there is no user i can give permissions to my content.

Any suggestions?

Sounds like you missed the last section of the guide

 

Emby is now a System internal user under DSM 7.  The pic below is how your media shares should be setup

Hi FrostByte,

but that´s exactly my problem, there is no "emby" user.

You need to use the drop down and change to System internal user.  See my pic

You´re completely right. Missed this drop-down.
