jellyfin.service is masked - Frank - 2025-03-25
Recently updated Linux Mint 21 to 22.1 - after that Jellyfin won't start anymore.
I removed all JF files in ~/config, cache and local then
completely purged JF according to a thread I found here:
https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-completely-reinstalling-jellyfin?highlight=purge%2Bjellyfin
But anytime I try to reinstall via
curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash
I get this: ( also tried systemctl daemon-reload but did not help either)
Waiting 15 seconds for Jellyfin to fully start up.

I have no idea what else I can do ....
RE: jellyfin.service is masked - TheDreadPirate - 2025-03-25
Unmask the service
Code:
sudo systemctl unmask jellyfin
sudo systemctl enable jellyfin
sudo systemctl start jellyfinRE: jellyfin.service is masked - Frank - 2025-03-25
That did the trick ...
Thank you !
