Jellyfin and uptime kuma - jsnotlout1 - 2024-01-28

I'm trying to get a handle on being able to keep my devices in check. And I want to use uptime kuma to get notified if my services go down, But i cant figure out how to get it to work. I used the basic Https monitor and set up the authentication and it just times out. Has anyone even gotten jellyfin to work with uptime kuma?

Is Jellyfin also running in a container? If so, did you use the JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl environment variable. That is required for health checks by an external app/container.

I did not use the Jellyfin_publishedServerUrl. it isn't running in container, Cause i like pain and need everything all over the place.

Yes, all I did was resolve the URL. In this case I resolved the public URL, but I don't see why you can't just resolve the private network IP:8096 address

Oh my word i finaly got it working, Turns out im an idiot and was using my old servers IP. I'll just stick to the http resolve solution you gave, since jellyfin isnt a docker container on my server.

Unrelated. But can you point me in a direction so that I could safely share the status page to the server members without having huge security risks?

Setup a reverse proxy with Caddy. It's pretty straight forward, let me know if you need any help.

Can I use no IP? Or do I need a different domain name?


RE: Jellyfin and uptime kuma - TheDreadPirate - 2024-01-29

I used NoIP for a while with nginx and let's encrypt before I bought a proper domain.


RE: Jellyfin and uptime kuma - esjaysee - 2024-01-30

Yeah NoIP will work fine. That's also where I started before I bought a dedicated domain.

Can I use Nginx? It has a nicer UI. And as much as I love the terminal. I just want it easier sometimes
