Code:

Process: 1073 ExecStart=/opt/jellyfin/jellyfin.sh (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)

You said that the contents of /etc/systemd/system/jellyfin.service.d/jellyfin.service.conf matched mine, but it sounds like they don't. Can you share the contents?

Also, why didn't the previous service statuses list the ExecStart parameter? That would have saved us time.

Code:

sudo grep -R "jellyfin.sh" /etc/systemd/ /usr/lib/systemd/
