Mounted Media Library Not Showing - sizzltek - 2024-08-26
current setup for context: Synology NAS and a separate computer running the latest Ubuntu Server (runs CasaOS for Jellyfin and other apps)
I currently have my NAS mounted to Ububtu in /mnt/stream and my /etc/fstab reflects this as well (pictures to show this too)
When i try to set my specified folder in Jellyfin it says "The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again."
I've looked into permissions to no avail
I've tried moving the mounted folder to other places, no luck
I've scoured the internet looking for solutions for my problem but none seem to work
I'm at a loss of where to go next and am seeking advice on if its a skill issue or there is something I've missed.
Any suggestions?
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-08-26
If you are using the auto-mount system to mount the share, there is almost certainly an ACL applied to /mnt/stream. You could remove the ACL, but this is temporary. Your other option is to provide the credentials directly in the fstab mount (or provide the text file with the credentials) so that no ACL is applied.
Regardless if there is an ACL or not, you'd also need the "noperm" option.
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - sizzltek - 2024-08-26
ok, so i've added the credentials txt file and made sure the permissions were good to go aswell as add the instructions to fstab. im not sure where to add the noperm into the text
does the text look good thus far as well?
//192.168.1.16/volume1/video /mnt/stream cifs credentials=/home/sizzltek/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000,x-systemd.automount 0 0
192.168.1.16:/volume1/video /mnt/stream nfs x-systemd.automount 0 0
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-08-26
Remove the uid and gid options, that restricts the mount to your user. Also remove x-systemd.automount.
"noperm" would go with the other options you have (credentials, uid, gid, etc.).
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - sizzltek - 2024-08-26
not sure what im doing wrong, its still undiscoverable in jellyfin and wont auto mount on reboot. this is making my hairline recede. heres my current /etc/fstab for the nas mount
//192.168.1.16/volume1/video /mnt/stream cifs credentials=/home/sizzltek/.smbcredentials,noperm 0 0
192.168.1.16:/volume1/video /mnt/stream nfs noperm 0 0
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-08-27
Is it a cifs mount or nfs mount? It can't be both.
Code:
192.168.1.16:/volume1/video /mnt/stream nfs defaults,user,noauto,relatime,rw 0 0Try this. I usually use SMB mounts, so wasn't entirely familiar with NFS options.
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - sizzltek - 2024-08-27
i've tried both independently, neither auto mount or are seen by jellyfin once i manually mount them. i've checked the permissions on the folders and even with my NAS unmounted Jellyfin won't see the subfolder /stream in the /mnt/stream directory. I've been using CasaOS as a UI for verifying (when mounted) the NAS videos are fully navigable and i can add/edit files from the CasaOS file manager. i've tried uninstalling CasaOS and reinstalling, same with ubuntu server to see if there was just a weird-ism somewhere.
i'm agnostic to nfs vs cfis at this point i simply just want it to automount and be seen in jellyfin lol
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-08-27
I'm most familiar with cifs/SMB. I know this works.
Code:
//192.168.1.16/volume1/video /mnt/stream cifs credentials=/home/sizzltek/.smbcredentials,noperm,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755 0 0But the credentials you provide in .smbcredentials needs to have permission to read the files on the SMB server.
And /mnt/stream cannot have an ACL on it.
Code:
sudo setfacl -B -R /mnt/stream
sudo chmod 755 /mnt/streamRE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - sizzltek - 2024-08-27
Ok, so my /etc/fstab mirrors what you've given
When doing sudo mount -a i get " mount error(2): No such file or directory
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg) "
I try to manually mount it via " sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.16/volume1/video /mnt/stream "
I'm prompted to give Password for root@//192.168.1.16/volume1/video
I've tried using my NAS admin password and my ubuntu server password but both give me " mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg) "
When trying to run " sudo setfacl -B -R /mnt/stream " i get " Usage: setfacl [-bkndRLP] { -m|-M|-x|-X ... } file ...
Try `setfacl --help' for more information. "
The chmod gave me no errors and worked no problem
I've double checked that my .smbcredentials are correct its formatted as
username=xxxx
password=xxxx
domain=WORKGROUP
I'm certain we're on the right path here, i just don't know why I'm catching on so many errors along the way. I'm running a synology NAS idk if there's something I'm missing on that end, but I've looked into it and as long as the credentials are valid it should work.
RE: Mounted Media Library Not Showing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-08-27
On your NAS, make sure the share is a CIFS share since your initial post implied it was a NFS initially.
Whatever credentials you put in .smbcredentials needs to be for an authorized user that exists on the NAS.
What OS is the NAS running?
