Emby will not start after power interruption


Recommended Posts

Just a little while ago I was watching a show through the Emby Roku app. We had a temporary power failure and now I cannot get Emby to open again.

I have clean junk files from the system and rebooted the system before and after rebooting.

System is Windows 10 (I know needs upgrade but that takes money. I have thought about replacing Win 10 with Ubuntu, but that would take away on of the systems I use to rip DVDs, anybody have a suggestion for a Linux program to that with)

16 gig ram

AMD FX-8320 8 Core

Nvidia GT 730 video card

Emby will not start even if I click on its icon in the start menu.

Any suggestions what I should do next?

PS I have a UPS but it needs a battery, which I will now be replacing in a couple days when I get paid.

@tesla1886this depends on your setup entirely. 

Are you running via "Startup" or as a "Service"?

Start up, but I'd prefer service. Just don't know how to use service, installation didn't give a choice.

Hi, first we have to learn what happened. If you still have the server log files from when this happened, that might tell us something. 

Also windows event viewer.

This is after, I made the first post at 1407, everything in the log is after that.

The only other logs that would have anything are attached. There are logs at 0714 but I wasn't watching anything then. I didn't attach them because everything was fine the power failure. I thought what ever was preventing the program to run would be in the previously attached files. I am not sure this file will have anything either, unless it would have been updated after I rebooted. When the power failed there was no time to write to the logs

OK thanks for the info. I think something must have become corrupted due to the sudden shutdown.

How do I get Emby to run as a service? I do not want to have to log in to get Emby running.

I use NSSM (Non Sucky Service Manager), very simple.
