Emby Server crashing randomly on OMV 3

[hsran 0]

I have installed Emby server on OMV 3 using the debian method but it has been really unstable.Crashes randomly few times a week and has been pretty unreliable as a media server.

 

It's been going on from the last month and I have gone through a few version changes.

 

 

Version: 3.2.33.0

Operating system: Unix 4.9.0.0

64-Bit OS: True

64-Bit Process: True

User Interactive: False

Mono: 5.2.0.224

 

 

This is unhandled log text created when the server went down.

Hi, I notice you are running mono 5.2. We officially support up to 4.8.1. Can you roll it back? Thanks !

Tried rolling back to 4.8.1 but too many dependencies are missing.Tried building it from source code and emby requests for mono-devel.

5.0 is the minimum that installs without any issues on Jessie

5.0 will definitely crash and burn, fyi. You might want to look at our new .net core based packages that no longer use mono:

They will soon replace the current packages. Thanks.
