Cannot get Jellyfin to access my media folder - smells-cilia0i - 2025-02-11
Hello,
I have tried over and over to my Jellyfin 10.10.5 to see the default Video folder on my Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS OS running on my Terramaster F4-424 Pro.
The file system is encrypted ZFS. I did the basic, non-docker install listed on https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/linux using the repository.
I can access the server, it is up, I can remote access it, everything seems to be good except the permissions.
My user looks like this: jellyfin:x:122:124:Jellyfin default user,,,:/var/lib/jellyfin:/bin/false
When I look at the logs in Jellyfin it shows: Library folder "/home/nas" is inaccessible or empty, skipping
The permission on the Videos folder are wide open: drwxrwxrwx 2 nas nas 4 Feb 11 03:46 Videos
I have tried every forum I can find and I am just not getting anywhere.
I completely reinstalled and started over to make sure I didn't make a mistake already.
If you can point to what I need to do, you would be my hero.
I am a noob to Linux/Ubuntu, but I really want to get better.

How did you mount the network share? Can you share the command? Or parameters you used in /etc/fstab?
