Run this command so we can get more info.
sudo journalctl -u jellyfin
It will put in you in text editor like interface. Press shift+g to go to the bottom. Copy and paste the last ~100 lines into pastebin and share the link back here.

Go to /etc/jellyfin. Are any of the XMLs empty? migrations.xml?
RE: Failed to start jellyfin.service - Jellyfin Media Server. - rahulsharma49 - 2024-06-02
yes, its there
RE: Failed to start jellyfin.service - Jellyfin Media Server. - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-02
But is the file size empty? Are any of the XML files in that directory empty? As in the file size is zero?
RE: Failed to start jellyfin.service - Jellyfin Media Server. - rahulsharma49 - 2024-06-02
migration.xml was empty so i took backup of it and restarted jellyfin so it created a new migration.xml with following contents -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

that folder has system.xml and network.xml but they are not empty.
now when jellyfin has created a new migration.xml, here is what i am getting as error -

Those logs are from June 1. You need to press shift+g to go to the bottom. /var/log/jellyfin should also have some logs now.
