RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - Blaze - 2024-09-09

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount grep exFAT
mount: exFAT: mount point does not exist.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount grep ntfs
mount: ntfs: mount point does not exist.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

I realized I also have an exFAT drive which should mount the same

Here's the disk

Turns out the NTFS drives stopped being seen by my device completely and even my bios isn't detecting so I'm gonna need to reseat them and the cables and figure out what is causing those to be an issue but the external drives have a lot of media on them I care more about then the other internal SSD's anyways and if I just mounted improperly somewhere that Should be the same process regardless and if needed nothing important is on the internal drives as it's all been backed up to my NAS anyways so I'm not terribly worried about them

RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - TheDreadPirate - 2024-09-09

You need to put a pipe between mount and grep.

Code:
mount | egrep -i "exfat|ntfs"

RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - Blaze - 2024-09-11

So I found my BIOS no longer was accepting GPT partitions which is why my internal drives weren't showing and got that fixed, and I also gave full permissions to the jellyfin user and this is the output from that grep

blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$ sudo chmod -R 666 /home/blaze
blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$ data dir
Command 'data' not found, did you mean:
command 'dat' from deb liballegro4-dev (2:4.4.3.1-4)
command 'date' from deb coreutils (9.4-2ubuntu2)
Try: sudo apt install <deb name>
blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$ --datadir
--datadir: command not found
blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$ mount | egrep -i "exfat|ntfs"
/dev/sdc2 on /media/blaze/Media1 type exfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,iocharset=utf8,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)
blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$

Jellyfin has also been added to the sudoers and been given permsions from in the drives app but still is returning the same unable to locate error

RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - TheDreadPirate - 2024-09-11

Definitely don't add jellyfin to the sudoers.

Quote:blaze@blaze-B450M-DS3H-WIFI:~$ sudo chmod -R 666 /home/blaze

This is bad. Don't do this.

Code:
chmod 750 /home/blaze

chmod -R o-rwx /home/blaze

You will also need to remount your hard drive. If you don't have any data on /media/blaze/Media1, or have space to empty it, you should reformat it as ext4. exfat does not accept Linux permissions.

You should also read my Linux permissions primer, which also includes a guide for how to mount hard drives in /etc/fstab. It looks like you're currently allowing Linux to auto-mount the hard drive.

RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - Blaze - 2024-09-14

Working on these suggestions now but I still have about 15 hours on file transfers before I can reformat the drive thank you for all the help and sorry for the late responce work and college gave me back to back 17 hour days

RE: Jellyfin Fails to start and defers me to logs - Blaze - 2024-09-16

Power cycled the system and everything works despite the errors. No clue how that fixed it, but thank you for all the help along the way

I've been reading and working through the mounting guide, but I have gotten stuck on litterally the last step and was hoping you might be able to shed some light for me?

The fdisk command shows that sdc2's UUID is 4F2BB852-4E22-4A34-A814-E889FA93D2FE. Try using that.
