You likely have to delete or rename the database files and start from scratch. You can't recover from this without a backup.

Okay, what’s the best way to do and where is that database located
RE: Failed to start jellyfin.service - Jellyfin Media Server. - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-02
/var/lib/jellyfin
library.db and jellyfin.db. Just rename the files to library.orig and jellyfin.orig. When you start the jellyfin service it will create blank db files and you will have to start over.

Anything in /var/log/jellyfin/ or with the journalctl command?

Same issue. Is your disk still full? Delete the new DB files, delete /etc/jellyfin/migrations.xml, try again.

RE: Failed to start jellyfin.service - Jellyfin Media Server. - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-03
I have no idea why that keeps happening. At this point I want to purge Jellyfin on your system and start from scratch. There are a couple steps to ensure we start clean.
Are you ok with that?
