(Arch Linux, Docker, Portainer) Can't connect to jellyfin-server on LAN - angelskin - 2024-06-16

Hi, I've set up jellyfin successfully before a few times but I did not use portainer, this time round I wanted to access it outside of my local network which I haven't done before, so I decided to start from scratch and follow this guide, here is my version of their config:
Code:
version: "3.5"

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin
    container_name: jellyfin-server
    user: "1001:971"
    network_mode: "host"
    extra_hosts:
      - "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
    # Remember that group number you got earlier? Enter that on the line below. 989 is usually the default.
    group_add:
      - "989"
    devices:
      - /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128
    environment:
      - JELLYFIN_CACHE_DIR=/var/cache/jellyfin
      - JELLYFIN_CONFIG_DIR=/etc/jellyfin
      - JELLYFIN_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/jellyfin
      - JELLYFIN_LOG_DIR=/var/log/jellyfin
    volumes:
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/etc/jellyfin:/etc/jellyfin
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/var/cache/jellyfin:/var/cache/jellyfin
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/var/lib/jellyfin:/var/lib/jellyfin
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/var/log/jellyfin:/var/log/jellyfin
      - /home/docker/media:/media

    restart: "unless-stopped"

  jellyfin-filebrowser:
    image: filebrowser/filebrowser
    container_name: jellyfin-filebrowser
    user: "1001:971"
    volumes:
      - /home/docker/media:/media
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/filebrowser/database.db:/database.db
      - /home/docker/jellyfin/filebrowser/.filebrowser.json:/.filebrowser.json
    ports:
      - 8098:80
    restart: "unless-stopped"

.filebrowser.json:
Code:
{
  "port": 80,
  "baseURL": "",
  "address": "",
  "log": "stdout",
  "database": "/database.db",
  "root": "/home/docker/media"
}

From my computer I can connect to the filebrowser on the server and see the login screen, but I can't connect to jellyfin, when I look at portainer the filebrowser has an IP assigned to it and published port, jellyfin does not, filebrowser is assigned to the 'jellyfin_default' network, jellyfin is set to 'host', I'm not sure if this is important in figuring out what's wrong but it seemed odd to me. There are also some permission errors in the jellyfin-server log, before start up i made sure everything in the /home/docker/jellyfin/ directory was owned by the docker user and group so I'm not sure why.

logs:

Thanks for taking the time to read.

If you or the root user created those folders, in /home/docker you will need to make sure that user ID 1001 has permissions to read and write to them.

Got back to this today and tried setting permissions again, not sure where I went wrong initially but it worked this time, thanks 😅
