Deleting Cache - quarkrad - 2025-11-11
Apologies - 2nd day newbie! I'm spending hours trying to figure out why there are still files in my Jellyfin Server library even though I have deleted them from the actual physical media library and rescanned. I have also, on my travels, deleted the Jellyfin server from my ubuntu headless server (that is sitting in a qemu vm) and re-installed. Hmm... the files are still there(?). So I'm thinking not all the config files were deleted and there must be caches that contain these files/images so they are presented to my library. Is there a (linux) terminal command that will delete all relevant Jellyfin caches so if one removes everything from the physical media library then nothing appears in the Jellyfin server library? I have re-scan my library a number of times but these files (that are no longer physically there) still appear in the library.
