I've been doing this in a terminal window (think I saw it in the original Raspberry Pi thread)

cd
cd emby-theater-pi
git pull

;)

This is how you update the emby-server?

I don't think that is right. 

 

Can anyone else help?

 

Running Emby server on Raspbian and i need to update to the latest server.

Apologies, you are correct. I added the command for theater!

 

Luke will probably see this again and let you know. I think he thought it was theatre too as he liked my post.

Well assuming you followed our installation instructions it would just be a regular apt-get update.

Sorry but i am very new to Linux.

So these are the commands i input to install Emby server.

 

wget -qO - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:emby/xUbuntu_14.04/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/emby/xUbuntu_14.04/ /' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/emby-server.list"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install emby-server

 

It works great!

 

Now when I try to upgrade to the latest version of the server however i input the following command.

sudo apt-get update

 

But when i restart the server, i still get the "Please shutdown the server and update manually" message. I must be missing something. 

 

I am currently at version 3.2.10.0 but it is telling me to update to 3.2.12.

After doing sudo apt-get update

 

I think you need

 

sudo apt-get upgrade emby-server

 

or just

 

sudo apt-get upgrade

 

to upgrade all available packages

 

EDIT: It's possible you may need to stop the server service before doing the upgrade. Probably best to anyway if you can.

@@Luke and @@Strudo76,

 

I'm sorry, it's not clear to me how to update.

Same issue, installed emby-server on a Pi3 using official instructions: https://emby.media/c...l-instructions/

 

I shut down the service and sudo apt-get update When I turn the service on again  i still get the "Please shutdown the server and update manually" message. 

Also tried shutting down, sudo apt-get update  then sudo apt-get upgrade emby-server and I get:  Running apt-get upgrade on your system can cause adverse effects on your system Use apt-get dist-upgrade, which is the proper way to administer a Debian / Ubuntu system

 

Tried  sudo apt-get update emby-server, but again nothing happens.  :huh:

 

Is there a step by step guide on how to update on a pi3?

 

Thanks

i always just go to the github and get the version for my pi this is what i do for the pi zero 2 W with os lite 32 bit

first stop the server with this command:

sudo systemctl stop emby-server
 

then download the update for your pi from the github this is my version, put the command in the prompt :

wget https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.8.11.0/emby-server-deb_4.8.11.0_armhf.deb -O emby-server.deb

install the package:

sudo dpkg -i emby-server.deb
sudo apt --fix-broken install -y
 

restart the server:

sudo systemctl start emby-server
sudo systemctl status emby-server
 

and your done change the deb file with your version you can get the newest version at https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases that is how i have done it
