hello I delete emby/sync folder now my libraries section in server dashboard is empty

[WhoDis 1]

What can I do to reverse this?

 

or do I have to start over?

 

the actual libraries and the metadata on app.emby.media seems to be fine so far

Hi there, can you please describe the problem a little bit more? I don't quite understand this. Thanks.

hey

 

So basically I looked at why my server was out of space

 

in my diagnosis found emby/sync to take all the space

so I in my panic did rm -r * on emby/sync folder

 

it freed up all the space 

 

I restarted emby after that

 

and while everything works

going to server dashboard I see there are no libraries set to monitor anymore they were obviously there before 

 

it only has add to library option

luckily however

 

it seems the libraries on emby are still intact

all these libraries are functional with metadata

 

my question is how to

restore my ability to add and scan for libraries again on this screen

without doing a full scan again because I dont want to redownload and rescan everything again it'll take ages

What version of Emby Server? Did you try adding a new library?

Version 4.3.1.0

 

added all libraries again everything has to be scanned again

Thanks for the feedback. I still don't fully understand what you did so I'm sorry I wasn't of much help. @@Happy2Play what do you think?

Unless the layout is different on this OS.  I had no issue deleting the \Emby-Server\programdata\sync folder.
