Run this command and share the output.

Code:
sudo journalctl -u jellyfin -n 200 --no-pager

Didn't notice this the first time.

What is in /usr/lib/systemd/system/jellyfin.service.d/override.conf?  Open that file and share the contents.  That is not part of a standard install.


RE: Issues Installing - Timer - 2024-10-15

i tried it and it said its an directory so i went to look what is in that directory and its empty


RE: Issues Installing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-15

What are the contents of /etc/default/jellyfin?

Ok. We are going to purge again and use an app called "plocate" to find any lingering jellyfin related files that may or may not be part of a standard install.

Code:
sudo apt purge jellyfin*
sudo apt install plocate
sudo updatedb
locate -i jellyfin

Share the output of the "locate" command. Your comment from yesterday makes me think there something on your system that is breaking jellyfin.

Here is the Pastebin
I've also got an error when installing plocate

RE: Issues Installing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-15

What is the output of these commands? It looks like apt is broken in some way. I also don't see apt pulling from the jellyfin repo.

Code:
sudo apt update
ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
cat /home/kelvin/jellyfin.sh
sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jellyfin.sources

And where did you get that jellyfin.sh file from? Is this like a portable jellyfin install?

So many questions......
