Getting Jellyfin running on Docker Desktop Ubuntu - Shazam53 - 2024-09-14
Pretty much what the title says. I've been trying to get a jellyfin server up & running using Docker Desktop for hours at this point to no avail.
I pulled the latest jellyfin after installing following a docker desktop install tutorial.
Then i created my directory like the jellyfin documentation said to with a config & cache folder in a jellyfin folder that is in a docker folder.
I created a docker-compose.yml file that sits in the jellyfin folder.
Which reads:
services:
jellyfin:
image: jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
container_name: jellyfin
user: 1000:1000
network_mode: 'bridge'
ports:
- 8096:8096
volumes:
- /home/malcolm53/Documents/docker/jellyfin/config
config- /home/malcolm53/Documents/docker/jellyfin/cache
cache- "/media/malcolm53/Barracuda 8TB/A_Media/Movies
media"- "/media/malcolm53/Barracuda 8TB/A_Media/Shows
media2"- "/media/malcolm53/WD BLUE 4TB/F_Media/Movies
media3"- "/media/malcolm53/WD BLUE 4TB/F_Media/Shows
media4"restart: 'unless-stopped'
lastly in the file sharing section I gave docker access to all of these folders. I somehow was able to get jellyfin to run as it was relentlessly restarting for a while, I do not know what I did to correct this. I am able to go to my localhost website where it is and set it up. I just can't get any of my media to scan or be seen. In docker it actually says the folders are "inaccessible or empty" so I'm at a loss honestly. Would love to know where I went wrong and how I can make this work.
It is also just restarting again.

What path are you using when you add the media to a library?

It just comes up as media, media2, media3, media4
But no subfolders and it's stuck restarting now anyways
