All client connections are black screen - Nathanael - 2024-10-13

So, I am having an issue with my Jellyfin server not loading the UI. This applies to the Web UI, Desktop App, and Android App. I just get a blank black screen. Nothing on it at all. Both for a logged-in client and one that is not.

The following is the log file I have access to. I don't know if there is another I can access.

This is the console log on my browser. (view attached image)
I have already removed/deleted ALL files associated with InPlayerPreview and removed it from the settings.xml file. (After disabling it and restarting ofc.)

Please let me know if you have any ideas as to what may be causing this!

RE: All client connections are black screen - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-13

Are you using a reverse proxy?

RE: All client connections are black screen - Nathanael - 2024-10-13

The only thing I am using is cloudflared to send it to a domain. But that shouldn't affect local connection anyway.

RE: All client connections are black screen - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-13

Are your local clients using the LAN IP or the domain name?

I also see that IPv6 is setup. Are you clients connecting with their IPv4 addresses or IPv6?

RE: All client connections are black screen - Nathanael - 2024-10-14

I am using the local IP with my clients to connect to the server. I do not know if I am properly using IPv6. I recall enabling it within Jellyfin but I don't know if I had to do anything beyond that.

RE: All client connections are black screen - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-14

Can you share your full log via pastebin? I ask about IPv6 because on my system they often end up reporting their IPv6 address to the server. I had to add my IPv6 /64 address to the "local networks" field so that they would be considered local.

RE: All client connections are black screen - Nathanael - 2024-10-14

I have no access to the web UI to find the other log file. Do you happen to know where that is stored on ubuntu? I have been attempting to find it but have had no luck.

(The log from the first post here is all I could find.)

RE: All client connections are black screen - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-14

/var/log/jellyfin is the default path.

RE: All client connections are black screen - Nathanael - 2024-10-14

If that is all then the log I posted here is all I have. That would be the full log.

RE: All client connections are black screen - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-14

Can you share the contents of /etc/jellyfin/network.xml?

And do you have a VPN installed on the server?
