Guest Arg Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 (edited) Hi, I have just upgraded my emby server but it doesn't start anymore. I noticed it wasn't updating automatically to the new version, so I did : $ yum install https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/3.4.1.0/emby-server-rpm_3.4.1.0_x86_64.rpm Loaded plugins: fastestmirror emby-server-rpm_3.4.1.0_x86_64.rpm | 55 MB 00:00:03 Examining /var/tmp/yum-root-xC7bY2/emby-server-rpm_3.4.1.0_x86_64.rpm: emby-server-3.4.1.0-1.x86_64 Marking /var/tmp/yum-root-xC7bY2/emby-server-rpm_3.4.1.0_x86_64.rpm as an update to emby-server-3.3.1.0-68.1.x86_64 Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package emby-server.x86_64 0:3.3.1.0-68.1 will be updated ---> Package emby-server.x86_64 0:3.4.1.0-1 will be an update --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ==================================================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================================================================================== Updating: emby-server x86_64 3.4.1.0-1 /emby-server-rpm_3.4.1.0_x86_64 179 M Transaction Summary ==================================================================================================================================================================== Upgrade 1 Package Total size: 179 M Is this ok [y/d/N]: y Downloading packages: Running transaction check Running transaction test Transaction test succeeded Running transaction Updating : emby-server-3.4.1.0-1.x86_64 1/2 Warning: emby-server.service changed on disk.

It seems that some directories changed of name. I restarted emby-server, but nothing happened... After having a look at the forum, I tried symlinking the /var/lib/emby-server to /var/lib/emby but it didn't solve the issue $ sudo ln -s /var/lib/emby /var/lib/emby-server $ sudo service emby-server restart $ ps -e | grep emby But it's still not running ... EDIT : I have done a yum downgrade to the 3.3 and it works again Edited May 31, 2018 by Arg
Luke 42077 Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 Hi, it looks like you're using our legacy installation package. Please see posts #3 and #4 here for instructions on how to manually update: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/58613-question-about-my-32-bit-upgrade/?p=574032 In order to use our new package on the website you'd have to first do a complete uninstall and purge. Thanks.

There is no such thing as purge on CentOS. I removed the old version of Emby, installed the new one : same problem. Should I delete manually the /var/lib/emby-server before the installation then ? Or do you mean I shouldn't use that rpm from my example ? But a tarball ? Where could I find this new installer ? Edited May 31, 2018 by Arg

The link i have you is a manual update. You won't need to purge or uninstall anything. Does this help?
Guest Arg Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) The link i have you is a manual update. You won't need to purge or uninstall anything. Does this help? Well, the link you gave me is about some Debian user who has some issues with CoverArt. He mentions how he updated mono manually and gives the link of a debian repo for Emby called Debian_Next I still don't understand how to do the manual upgrade on CentOS... Is it a tar.gz that I should download somewhere on this Debian_Next repo ? EDIT : OK what I thought to be a .tar.gz with Mono is in fact Emby Server. Edited June 5, 2018 by Arg
Solution Guest Arg Posted July 19, 2018 Solution Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) I've done : yum remove emby-server ln -s /var/lib/emby-server /var/lib/emby yum install https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/3.5.0.0/emby-server-rpm_3.5.0.0_x86_64.rpm EDIT : It seems emby is unable to scan the library anymore and I've lost all the manually downloaded covers. EDIT 2 : That was because I moved the emby-server folder instead of symlinking it. Now it works but I hope the next updates will be easier to manage. Edited July 19, 2018 by Arg
