can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

Hello, I ran into a very similar issue as this one : https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-failed-to-start-jellyfin-service-jellyfin-media-server

Same thing - disk full, empty config/migrations.xml file, I deleted it manually and now this error :

Code:
jellyfin  | [19:34:21] [INF] [1] Jellyfin.Server.Migrations.MigrationRunner: Applying migration 'MigrateActivityLogDatabase'

jellyfin  | [19:34:21] [WRN] [1] Jellyfin.Server.Migrations.Routines.MigrateActivityLogDb: Migrating the activity database may take a while, do not stop Jellyfin.

jellyfin  | [19:34:21] [ERR] [1] Jellyfin.Server.Migrations.MigrationRunner: Could not apply migration 'MigrateActivityLogDatabase'

jellyfin  | Microsoft.Data.Sqlite.SqliteException (0x80004005): SQLite Error 1: 'no such table: ActivityLog'.

The only difference is I am running docker.

I feel dumb because I was not automating backups at this moment, my last backup is 3 months old and there has been quite some changes since then...

I also have a 3 months old backup of this file migrations.xml then, should I try to restore it ?

Or maybe try to restore an ActivityLog table with empty fileds ?

Thanks a lot for any help !

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-20

Try simply deleting migrations.xml and restarting jellyfin.

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

This is what I have done already, sorry if I was not clear. Then I run into this error message I posted above.

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-20

My bad. Missed that part. In migrations.xml, look for this block and delete it since this is the database migration it is failing on. Then try starting up Jellyfin.

Thanks for your help !

This is the content of the actual migration.xml after recreation. There is nothing related to ActivityLog :

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

I've just checked the data directory and users.db and activitylog.db are both empty / 0 bytes Confused-face

I guess trying to wildly restore this files from a 3 months old backup would not be the greatest idea ?
I don't think the jellyfin docker image is dumping or backing up the db automatically or anything ?

maybe I could dump this tables from the backup and import them to the current database ?

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

It looks a bit complicated though...
this would be the Dockerfile :
https://hub.docker.com/layers/jellyfin/jellyfin/latest/images/sha256-15579ab64a14f9e3dce043c076df148e9de9631f11c9b3f614f1fbad868db701?context=explore
(I use jellyfin/jellyfin without tags)

I could use a database engine, is it mariaDB or MySQL or Postgre ? How could I get the appropriate version ?

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

The weird thing is my backup doesn't contain these files and the files it contains seem to be pretty old :

I don't get the reason for this, since the other files are 3 years old...
This does really look bad however !

Maybe I should just remove the users.db and activitylog.db files since they are not existing in my backup and they are empty anyway...
I don't get it !

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - TheDreadPirate - 2024-06-20

If you look in the jellyfin log it is likely complaining about another migration failing. Probably different from before. Rinse and repeat until we work through what remains in migrations.xml?

RE: can't start jellyfin after disk full - kro - 2024-06-20

update : no still the same error
no such table: ActivityLog

do you mean I should remove migrations.xml and re-run jellyfin many times ?
or just remove some parts ? (which ones)
