Reset password on Jellyfin - jngolds2 - 2024-01-07

I keep trying to reset my Jellyfin password however I get the following message "Forgot Password Please try again within your home network to initiate the password reset process." I'm not sure what this means. Does anyone know how I can reset my password using an iMac. Thanks.

Are you on the same network as your jellyfin server?


RE: Reset password on Jellyfin - jngolds2 - 2024-01-07

Yes I am.

Stop Jellyfin, find system.xml in Jellyfin's config directory. I don't know where that is on MacOS. In that file near the top is "IsSetupWizardComplete". Change that from true to false. Start jellyfin.
