Jellyfin can't access second internal SSD on Debian - matchajelly - 2023-07-23

I installed Jellyfin server on Debian 12,  and I have a second internal SSD on my computer. It is automounted at /media/myname/SATA and I've given it permissions using

sudo chown -R jellyfin:jellyfin /media/myname/SATA

as well as

sudo chmod -R 775 /media/myname/SATA

However, when I try to add a media library, Jellyfin does not see the drive. I can only navigate to /media/myname. What are my other options on how to solve this?

Instead of jellyfin:jellyfin what happens when you

Code:
sudo chown -R myname:jellyfin /media/myname
sudo chmod -R 770 /media/myname

TheDreadPirate I had the exact same problem and this fixed it for me. With a new Jellyfin podman rootless install on openSUSE tumbleweed.

For others maybe having the same problem, I will add that I had initially mounted the media drive in /home/myname/media and that wouldn't work but upon creating a new folder /media and mounting the drive there, then following the chown you suggested that fixed it for me. Thank you!
