Jellyfin 'Scan all libraries' Fails - AndyKosch - 2024-11-06
Hi!
I am having a error where when i try so Scan all libraries it fails immediately. The error began after i deleted a library. Also I can not add new libraries anymore, or rather when I add a new library it will get stuck when i add the folder path and if i refresh the page the library will be added with the correct folderpath but it will not scan. There is no indication that it even starts a scan in the logfile.
Here is a pastebin of the log where you can see the Scan failed. When or if I add a new library it will not show in the list of media locations at all in the log output.

Example:

[2024-11-06 12:20:26.083 +02:00] [INF] [17] Emby.Server.Implementations.IO.LibraryMonitor: Watching directory "X:\Kids Movies"
If I add a library for example named 'Anime' pointing to "\\NAS542\allt\anime" it will show in the Jellyfin dashboard, but it will not show up in this list. Also a manual scan of that library will not work. I can manually scan all these libraries successfully. But if I use 'Scan all' it fails.

What server version are you running?
RE: Jellyfin 'Scan all libraries' Fails - AndyKosch - 2024-11-06
I'm on server version 10.10.1 at the moment. I was on 10.9.10 before and had the same issue. I am running Jellyfin on Windows Server 2025 in case that could have any impact.

Network paths are not supported in 10.10. In 10.9, the ability to add new network paths was removed. You must map a network path to a drive letter then add the drive letter.
