Server won't start - Mombius_Hibachi - 2025-12-07
Hi, I'm not sure what my issue is exactly, so haven't searched the forum. Since yesterday, my Jellyfin server won't connect.
- The version of Jellyfin you are running (e.g. 10.8.10)
10.11.4
- Your installation method and platform (e.g. Linux Docker, Debian repository, Windows installer, etc.)
Windows installer
- A brief description of the issue as your thread subject, using the description for additional important context only if required
When I try to open the server, I get an error (see screenshot).
- A full explanation of what is happening, versus what you expect to happen
The server doesn't start (either at startup or when I try to start it manually).
- What client(s) you are using and how the issue manifests
I am running Windows 11
- Any other context you might think is relevant
Been using Jellyfin for quite some time now (12+ months) with no issues. Happy to post a log; I just need someone to point me to the right file, as I am not very familiar with this sort of thing.

I tried starting Jellyfin again today (just to see if it would work) and got a pop up pointing to the Server Log, so I am pasting it here.
