Jellyfin-web client missing - Puriwong Lertnantaporn - 2024-10-17

I'm trying to move from docker desktop on Windows to Proxmox.
I got the Debian 12 lxc set up and tried running the 
Code:
curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash
from the docs it went fine without error
but after the script finished I tried checking if the server is running using jellyfin command and it shows  this

   

I tried looking for the directory but there's no jellyfin-web there

i'm using Proxmox and Debian 12 container

Jellyfin operates as a system service, so typing "jellyfin" in the terminal is not the correct way to start Jellyfin and will result in an error.

To check the status, use the command:
Code:
systemctl status jellyfin

After installing with the script, you can configure Jellyfin in your browser at this address: http://localhost:8096/

If Jellyfin isn't running, you can start it with:
Code:
sudo systemctl start jellyfin

Thanks for the reply
I tried using systemctl and still can't connect to webgui

From your screenshot, it looks like you’re still running "jellyfin" in the terminal. Once Jellyfin is installed and running as a service, you don’t need to interact with the terminal. You can simply configure it through your web browser at http://localhost:8096/.


RE: Jellyfin-web client missing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-17

localhost is only viable if you are accessing it from the same host that is running the server. The font in your screenshot looks like putty so I am assuming you are NOT accessing Jellyfin from the same machine. In which case you would need to use the LAN IP for your server.

http://192.168.X.X:8096

Replace with your actual LAN IP for the server.


RE: Jellyfin-web client missing - Puriwong Lertnantaporn - 2024-10-17

I did replace the ip with LAN IP and still can't access the webgui


RE: Jellyfin-web client missing - TheDreadPirate - 2024-10-17

Did you open port 8096?

Code:
sudo ufw status

If ufw is disabled or doesn't have a rule for port 8096, run this command.

Code:
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow 8096



RE: Jellyfin-web client missing - Puriwong Lertnantaporn - 2024-10-17

Thanks for all the help. I've managed to fix the problem by just assigning ip to jellyfin lxc not the same as proxmox host ip.
sorry for rookie mistake.
