Can't find media folders after upgrade to 3.4.1.0

[everydayevil 6]

Since upgrading to 3.4.1.0 Emby is throwing an error whenever i try to scan or add media folders.

 

the error it is giving is as follows...

 

Could not find a part of the path '/var/lib/emby-server/root/default/Movies'

 

The actual path is '/var/lib/emby/root/default/Movies'

 

I have copied the emby/* path to emby-server/ and everything is working again.

Not sure why this changed and didn't update the file path on disk.

Actually the original path was /var/lib/emby-server/ and the new install updated the file path on disk to /var/lib/emby/

however internally it was still looking for everything on /var/lib/emby-server/ and not /var/lib/emby/

I saw the same thing... just to be on the safe side, I symlinked /var/lib/emby-server to /var/lib/emby...

I noticed this too, the server starts when i symlink it.  However once the server is running, i have issues.  I can't play anything on an android device, as well as getting constant "Do you want to accept the SSL certificate?" prompts on android.  Not asking for help in this thread, just wanting to point it out in case it's not just me.

Switching between our older install package that updated using apt-get update, and our new .deb based packages is something that wasn't really intended. They are currently not compatible.

 

The best approach would be a fresh install of the new package, or a rename/symlinks of certain folders based on what this user did:

To fix your problem you only have to do

 

```

#> ln -s /var/lib/emby /var/lib/emby-server

```

not to intrude on the thread but can I move the default folders from "/var/lib/emby/data/"  to my own location?

 

I am building Emby server on Proxmox  LXC container and want to bind-mount my data drives to it.

since I already setup my Media folder on the drive I just want all to go there.
