Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 Hi, regarding the port mapper, it’s not guaranteed to work with all routers. If it doesn’t work with yours then you can always disable it and configure port forwarding in your router manually.
Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 Regarding the library can you please provide a specific example? Thanks.

I'm not sure why it would fail all of a sudden?
Macca500 6 Posted January 15, 2024 Author Posted January 15, 2024 Any new file that is added is not scanned onto the server. examples are Napoleon (2023) and Boy Swallows Universe. I have tried to follow the guide re corrupt database however neither the library.gb-shm, library.db-wal or activity files exist within the IOS files
Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 Ok please run a library scan and then once it finishes please attach the emby server log. thanks.

I tried to go further with the DB Browser however have no idea what I'm doing and am unsure how to run a integrity check without the library.db file

Ok. I've tried to create a database on the DB browser however there are no files within the emby files that the program is able to open.

If you're going to skip over the recovery steps, then the next step is this: Steps to Reset Library Database & Load Fresh Shutdown Emby Change to the database location found above containing your database files Rename library.db to library.corrupt Restart Emby Run a Full Library Scan

If you didn't delete it then you might be in the wrong folder. Anyway if it's gone now then you can just start the server and go from there. You'll have to reconfigure quite a bit, but once complete you should be good to go.

Do i need to remove my library on emby and restart?
Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 The library.db file is always there. You must be in the wrong folder. What folder are you looking in?
Macca500 6 Posted January 15, 2024 Author Posted January 15, 2024 Just now, Luke said: The library.db file is always there. You must be in the wrong folder. What folder are you looking in? So i followed the instruction re the three dots and seeing what the first folder was called. mine is /config . I then shut down the server and have opened the usb containing the files and opened the config folder. There are a number of folders and files none of which are called library. I have also looked in every other folder on the usb to be sure i havent missed it
Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 What is the full path to the folder that you're looking in? Based on your log file it should be /config/data
Macca500 6 Posted January 15, 2024 Author Posted January 15, 2024 Just now, Luke said: What is the full path to the folder that you're looking in? Based on your log file it should be /config/data Under config there is no data folder. This is what is under config
Luke 42079 Posted January 15, 2024 Posted January 15, 2024 That's not the right folder. The /config folder that the Emby docker container sees is a virtualized folder that maps to a real folder somewhere in your unraid data folders. I don't know where exactly that is for you. You should probably check unraid settings and see where you have it configured to store data. Once you've located that, then it will have folders for all of your unraid apps, including emby server.

Thanks for the help. This all appears to be above my knowledge base so i'll need to find someone to physically look at it all for me as I have no idea. Cheers
Luke 42079 Posted January 16, 2024 Posted January 16, 2024 Please let us know how this goes. Thanks !
