Libraries not showing up, scanning stuck at 0% - Mastersarg - 2025-05-20

So...  I may have been up way too late and just wasn't thinking when I created another library...  I put the folder path as just /config (which obviously is wrong.  After clicking save, I quickly realized what I did and then changed it to the new created folder for it inside of docker just like my other libraries.  Now...  Jellyfin did not like that very much.

My libraries don't show up on the main page (however I can see them under the library section.  Their pathways are all correct.  Scanning now just stays at 0% for some reason.

I have since then:
Restarted the container
Removed and re-added the container and repointed the pathways
Restarted my NAS
Not sure if the metadata got corrupted or what's going on so any help would be much appreciated.

JF on container in Docker
Nas is Ugreen 6800 Pro
All media is still inside of the docker folder and perfectly playable.  Currently backing it up on a personal folder just in case I need to wipe that whole folder.

im having the same issue, although mine started after i added a new drive and tried to link it to jellyfin instead of an incorrect path.

im also only getting one error in the logs, here it is for reference.
