Show me the contents of /usr/lib/systemd/system/jellyfin.service and /etc/default/jellyfin.

jellyfin.service should look like

Here's the service config:

Code:

[Unit]
Description = Jellyfin Media Server
After = network-online.target

[Service]
Type = simple
EnvironmentFile = /etc/default/jellyfin
User = jellyfin

Restart = on-failure
TimeoutSec = 15
SuccessExitStatus=0 143

[Install]
WantedBy = multi-user.target

and here's the /etc/default/jellyfin config:

Code:

# Jellyfin default configuration options

# Use this file to override the default configurations; add additional

I haven't modified this config, all of the other options that are commented out were like that from install, as far as I know
