Two instances running (mistakenly) - LH44 - 2024-02-21
I think I know what’s happening…just don’t know how to fix it.
On the JELLYFIN server…if i go to localhost:8096 I can get to my content, all users..everything.
If I go to (IPADDRESS):8096, I get to a different JF instance. This one does not have an Admin account, nor does it have my personal media account….yet still has all others.
What I think happened was a computer/domain username screwup in Windows Server 2019. (I’m the screwup)
Anyway, my theory is that one of these instances are coming from ProgramData….and the other is coming from USERS\AppData.
I have tried fruitlessly to determine which is which…or how I go about fixing this. As of now, I can access my server from DDNS/Reverse Proxy.
What logs/info is needed to help me fix this debacle? As of right now, it’s not an issue. But I could foresee it becoming a mess when I migrate to something else or backup/restore. Thanks in advance.

First check task manager to verify that you have two jellyfin.exe processes.

Disregard. I swear it was not working yesterday. I probably spent about 8 hours trying things.
When I went to look for 2 JF.exe in the task manager… only one was there.
Just tried it again. Working perfectly. Chalk it up to i tripped over the solution somehow…or I’m just a dumbass.
