Seems your share name is not recognized or somehow wrong.
Please post the output of
smbclient -L 192.168.1.124
and
ls -la /mnt

in my pve shell i have the following
/mnt/Movies
/mnt/Shows
/mnt/Music
If i understand you correctly @TheDreadedPirate my syntax should be as follows
source //192.168.1.124/media/Movies and destination /mnt/Movies so all the folder in truenas Movies are mounted in /mnt/Movies in proxmox
Thank you all for your patience with me
RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-14
My recommendation was based on the info provided. The output of smbclients indicates it should be
//192.168.1.124/Movies
//192.168.1.124/Music
//192.168.1.124/Shows
RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - madsepperl - 2024-10-14
Hi wbravin,
we're getting closer now
First of all you should take care that you mount the remote filesystems within the LXC shell and not on PVE host.
Sometimes you post screenshots where you use "root@pve" and sometimes from "root@jellyfin". If "jellyfin" is your Jellyfin LXC then the following commands only have to be performed on that host, NOT on the PVE host.
first parameter in /etc/fstab describes the remote filesystem. So you can use everyting that "smbclient -L 192.168.1.124" shows. In your case:
//192.168.1.124/Movies
//192.168.1.124/Music
//192.168.1.124/Shows
second parameter in /etc/fstab matches directories on the local filesystem. You must create these local directories manually before mounting. In your case:
/mnt/Movies
/mnt/Shows
/mnt/Music
So /etc/fstab in your case could be something like (in the jellyfin LXC, not the PVE host!):
Code:
//192.168.1.124/Movies /mnt/Movies cifs credentials=/.smbcred,x-systemd.automount,iocharset=utf8,rw,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,vers=3 0 0
//192.168.1.124/Music /mnt/Music cifs credentials=/.smbcred,x-systemd.automount,iocharset=utf8,rw,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,vers=3 0 0
//192.168.1.124/Shows /mnt/Shows cifs credentials=/.smbcred,x-systemd.automount,iocharset=utf8,rw,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,vers=3 0 0RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - wbravin - 2024-10-15
Hello all for all your contributions and patience
I delete from the pve shell all the /mnt directories i created during this adventure. I also deleted all the subsequent entries created in the pve fstab file
I added user wbravin and root to the jellyfin lxc (user root already existed)
I created in the jellyfing lxc
/mnt/Moves
/mnt/Music
/mnt/Shows
I nano /etc/fstab (when i opened it it was empty)
I added the following line as per above
//192.168.1.124/Movies /mnt/Movies cifs credentials=/.smbcred,x-systemd.automount,iocharset=utf8,rw,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,vers=3 0 0
i get the following
root@jellyfin:~# systemctl daemon-reload
root@jellyfin:~# mount /mnt/Movies
mount: /mnt/Movies: permission denied.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
root@jellyfin:~#
I tried to add user= and pass= after /mnt/Movies and at the end.... not good
Once i get this sorted i will add the other 2
Thank you once again

This is a guide I followed for my unprivileged LXC, works well and I can move the container between hosts.
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/tutorial-unprivileged-lxcs-mount-cifs-shares.101795/
For moving the container between hosts you need to add "shared=1" to the mounts within the container conf file.

@GrumpyNick
Thank you very much for this suggestion.
I was following this recommendation on youtube from jim's garage.
As i am by no means an IT guy, i get vastly confused by the different ways one could achieve this integration.
I need to keep thing simple for example
I have in my truenas the following structure /mnt/poolname/datasets ....simple brilliant
In this thread there is a line groupadd -g 10000 lxc_shares and then mkdir -p /mnt/lxc_shares/nas_rwx can i replace lxc_shares with /mnt/media?
Can i replace lxc_shares/nas_rws and have mkdir -p /mnt/media/Movies? then replicate this for music and shows.
From what i understand, from jim's garage is when i bind mount, the mount code will automatically add all directories to /mnt/media, for movies, music and shows.
Which is different from what was said in this thread which was to first create the directories for each dataset in /mnt then bind mount each truenas dataset individually
I then would have /mnt/media/Movies, /mnt/media/Music etc
therefore
//192.168.1.124/Music/ /mnt/media/Music cifs _netdev,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=3min,noatime,uid=100000,gid=110000,dir_mode=0770,file_mode=0770,user=USER,pass=PASSWORD 0 0
in this case i would have to have such a line for each dataset (movies music shows).
This makes sense to me and i would understand that it should solve my permission denied issue... Correct?
Once again thank you all for this help
RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - GrumpyNick - 2024-10-15
In short yes, you can map the shares however you'd like that guide is just an example of how the author did their setup.
I also use TrueNAS and have a share for TV-Shows and one for Films so they require a mapping each.
If you add more than one share/mapping to an LXC make sure to increment the device so the example has 'mp0' if you add another you'd need 'mp1' and so on.
RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - wbravin - 2024-10-15
@GrumpyNick
Thank for the confirmation
I now deleted the LXC
re created the lxc anew
in the pve shell
created mkdir -p /mnt/truenas
nano /etc/fstab : this is the fstab
<file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/pve/root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
UUID=AA01-F313 /boot/efi vfat defaults 0 1
/dev/pve/swap none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
//192.168.1.24/Movies/ /mnt/truenas cifs _netdev,x-systemd.automount,noatime,uid=100000,gid=110000,dir_mode=0770,file_mode=0770,user=root,pass=bikerdude30 0 0' ; } | tee>
I only added the last line
saved it
mount /mnt/truenas and this is the output
root@pve:~# mount /mnt/truenas
mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 1 -- ignored
mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 6 -- ignored
mount: /mnt/truenas: can't find in /etc/fstab.
root@pve:~#
The line 1 error could be due ext4 ro=1 i do not know what line 6 error is
however i find strange the /mnt/truenas can't find /etc/fstab
once again thank you
RE: Jellyfin on proxmox - GrumpyNick - 2024-10-15
Try the following.
//192.168.1.24/Movies/ /mnt/truenas cifs _netdev,x-systemd.automount,noatime,uid=100000,gid=110000,dir_mode=0770,file_mode=0770,user=root,pass=bikerdude30,iocharset=utf8 0 0
