Jellyfin container crashes during startup - Dificator - 2025-02-28

Hello!

I'm trying to run Jellyfin in a container via podman, but it crashes immediately when I start it. The container status says "Exited (139) 14 minutes ago (starting)". Here are the container logs:

Quote:Process terminated. Couldn't find a valid ICU package installed on the system. Please install libicu (or icu-libs) using your package manager and try again. Alternatively you can set the configuration flag System.Globalization.Invariant to true if you want to run with no globalization support. Please see https://aka.ms/dotnet-missing-libicu for more information.

Here is the command I'm using to start the container:

Quote:podman run \
--detach \
--label "io.containers.autoupdate=registry" \
--name jellyfin \
--publish 8096:8096/tcp \
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) \
--userns keep-id \
--volume /home/jellyfin/cache: /cache:Z \
--volume /home/jellyfin/config: /config:Z \
--mount type=bind,source=/data/storage/jellyfin/media,destination=/media,ro=true,relabel=private \
docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest

My OS: Fedora Server 41
Version: The latest jellyfin docker image (10.10.6)

I'm not sure if it's important, but I checked, and I have "libicu-74.2-2.fc41.x86_64" installed on the machine.

When I try to run the same thing on my workstation (Fedora 40), everything works fine.

Has anyone seen this issue before? Do you know how to fix it?

Try installing libicu-dev and icu-devtools, if they aren't installed already. Both of those are installed on my server, in addition to libicu.
