Removing folders from library, manage folders error

[Rumbaar 13]

Hi,

 

I have version 3.2.60.0, and I went to delete a folder from my TV library.  Folders as per below.

• \\networkshare1\TV
• G:\TV
• \\networkshare2\TV
• \\networkshare3\\tv

I pressed on the remove button on the G: entry and it prompted with the warning and I confirmed and migrated out of that section.   Then I went back in later after a library scan to notice that the first entry had been removed and the G: entry was still there. I then clicked on the G: entry again and 'removed' it and found that the network entry below it was removed.  I couldn't get it to delete until I removed all entries and it was the last one.  Then I had to add all the network paths back in.

 

Not sure if this a bug?

I'm not a dev or anything but, out of curiosity, was your G path still valid? I mean was stuff still reachable following that path?

 

I had the same issue before and my hunch was that when an invalid path is deleted, emby deletes the first valid path in the list.

 

I raised it on the forum but i never found out if that was right. I just resorted to not deleting invalid paths via the interface.

 

I might be wrong though...

It was now an empty folder, but the path G:\TV was still valid and accessible.   Good thought though.

This is a bug affecting installations of a certain age or greater, and we're still trying to track it down. It won't happen anymore on a brand new server installation. thanks.

I'm in the process of migrating my current Window 10 server install to an Ubuntu VM, so will not longer have an old installation.   If I can help in testing of the current install, I'm happy too.
