Nightly scan searches for long removed folders - TheDreadPirate - 2023-07-08
Every night during the scheduled library scan, Jellyfin keeps trying to search for a few folders and files I have long since removed/moved/renamed. An example is below.
Code:
[2023-07-08 11:30:40.649 +00:00] [WRN] Unable to find linked item at path "/mnt/wdred/Old Time Radio/The Shadow/47.11.23_comicstripkiller.mp3"
[2023-07-08 11:30:40.392 +00:00] [WRN] Unable to find linked item at path "/media/library/Movies/Harry Potter/6 Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.mkv"I THINK for the Old Time Radio example I didn't remove the library. I just add the new folder within the library (from /mnt/wdred to /media/library) and removed the old one (I changed the mount point for this hard drive). For the Harry Potter file, I had renamed the file.
Is there any way I can tell Jellyfin to stop looking for these paths? Or do I have to remove the library and re-add it? Not ideal as I don't want to lose progress/completion data.

Hey @TheDreadPirate
this looks like a known bug that involves JF searching for items present in collections. JF 10.8.11 will have a fix for that.
