Hello there,
I'm trying to launch Jellyfin, using the linuxserver docker image via portainer. I already have many containers running flawlessly, including radarr, sonarr, portainer itself, and prowlarr, but when I try to launch my Jellyfin container, I get the following error in the Docker Jellyfin logs:
Code
I have tried the following fixes which were recommended me by chatGPT (I know, I know):
Code
that don't seem possible using the standard portainer container deployment tab? I couldn't find anywhere in the advanced settings you could put something like that, and I'm not quite ready to try redoing the whole thing as a CLI command or a docker-compose stack, as I have no idea how to make sure either of those work correctly, I normally do everything with the standard deployment GUI and it has caused me no problems yet.
Any ideas on what might be going on here, or how I could fix it?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you for reading!

- Making sure the permissions of the jellyfin config folder accurately reflect the PUID and PGID being used for the container.
- Making sure the settings on the container match the settings of the successful containers where I think it counts, for example PUID/PGID/TZ.
- Making sure the architecture of the docker jellyfin image match that of my device (aarch64/arm64).
