Hi, the blog post link seems to not be working.

[Oddstr13]

Just CI being a little slow to deploy the blog post, it's up now.

[KaXaSA]

The blog post doesn't mention it, but I remember that in the notes it was recommended to remove all plugins before upgrading to 10.11.x, that's no longer necessary?
What's the situation with the plugins? Thanks.

Edit:
Just an update, answering my own question.
So I upgraded from 10.10.7 (Windows Server), followed the blog instructions, but in my case no changes were necessary. Checking the logs, It tried to load the plugins and update them if available/necessary.
If there is a problem with the plugins, you will probably see in the logs a:

Code:

"[ERR] [10] Emby.Server.Implementations.Plugins.PluginManager"

Real Example:

Code:

[2025-10-20 00:57:51.039 -03:00] [ERR] [10] Emby.Server.Implementations.Plugins.PluginManager: 
Failed to load assembly "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\jellyfin\plugins\Ani-Sync_3.7.0.0\jellyfin-ani-sync.dll". 
This error occurs when a plugin references an incompatible version of one of the shared libraries. Disabling plugin
System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException: Unable to load one or more of the requested types.
Could not load type 'Jellyfin.Data.Entities.User' from assembly 'Jellyfin.Data, Version=10.11.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'Jellyfin.Data.Entities.User' from assembly 'Jellyfin.Data, Version=10.11.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

I have a small server, the upgrade/migration was superfast, it was pretty much instantaneous. Checking the logs, it seems it took about 3 minutes to finish with all the migrations and, aside from the plugin above that got disabled, I didn't see any other issues. Ani-Sync got updated to 3.8, and now it's working fine, I had to open the plugin page and manually install it, but it restored all my old settings.

I will also need to test stuff like Sync Play later, but so far so good.

[littlenewton]

I have updated to v10.11.0, and all the migration jobs have been done. However, my frontend interface is still getting stuck.

Should I restart my Jellyfin container?

[littlenewton]

PS. A small question about the time consumption.

I have a huge movie library, which contains around 60,000 movies. Should I rewrite it totally? I found it very slow to update this library.

Can someone tell me how much time it will take to finish this update/rescan job?

I have an issue with a locked database. I can guarantee there is nobody but me operating this database.

Hi! everything but plugins seems to be working, does not load anything, any ideas? btw great work team! Thank you for all your effort.



PD: My "playlists disappear after scan" issue is still happening at 10.11, sad

PD2: nvm, plugins are working again after a scan.
