Rolling back to 10.8.13 - what folders to restore? - sbszine - 2024-05-14

I've managed to bork my Jellyfin server by trying to install 10.9.1 on macOS, and I would now like to roll back to 10.8.13. Resinstalling the old binary doesn't work, presumably because the database and / or config is different. I have per folder Time Machine backups, but I'm not sure what I need to restore to get things back to 10.8.13. Can someone give me a list of macOS paths to restore? Would like to avoid restoring the whole machine or resintalling Jellyfin from scratch.

I also had issues with the 10.9.1 and have been unable to roll anything back so I resorted to using a docker image from 10.8 and reused my library settings by mapping them to the container thru volumes.

I have also gone back... to version 10.8.13-1

I had solved almost all the problems, but the most serious is when the connection with the clients is lost... and it crashes every few hours...

And I see this in the log:

Code:
Emby.Server.Implementations.Session.SessionWebSocketListener: Lost 1 WebSockets

And it is only solved by restarting the server

Now on 10.8.13-1 everything works great

/Users/"username"/.cache/jellyfin (folder)
/Users/"username"/.config/jellyfin (folder)
/Users/"username"/.local/share/jellyfin (folder)
/Users/"username"/Library/Preferences/Jellyfin.Server.plist
These four will bring you back to 10.8.13.The first 3 are invisible folders in your home folder. Easiest to just restore the enclosing folders (.cache, .config, & .local) as long as nothing else is using them. You might have to clear your browser.
Cheers & hope this helps!
