did i do it wrong?


RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-20

What happens if you just install "jellyfin"?

Code:
sudo apt install jellyfin

If that STILL fails, what is the output of this command?

Code:
apt search jellyfin



RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - Samantha Adamovic - 2025-03-20

this doesnt look right to me but idk


RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-20

That looks right.

Code:
sudo systemctl status jellyfin



RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - Samantha Adamovic - 2025-03-20

still not working


RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-20

It is working. "jellyfin permission" is not a thing you need to do nor is it a valid command. The status command is showing that Jellyfin is running.

If you haven't done so already, you need to open port 8096.

Code:
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow 8096

Then you should able to access Jellyfin from any host on your home network.

stupid question, but when i put in my ip the the :8096 it should just give a new start up screen like the one where you create all stuff for it right? because it didnt


RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-20

http://<insertYourIP>:8096 doesn't work? Does Zorin OS not use UFW for its firewall?


RE: Failed to start Jellyfin Media S…ver. - Samantha Adamovic - 2025-03-20

No it does ufw and nope it just take me to the page that’s for once you’ve already set it up
