SOLVED: Native https access

[ro55mo]

Hi

I have just installed Jellyfin on a headless virtual Debian 12 server using the official repo.

Version: 10.8.13

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/instal...-automatic

I have attempted to figure basic https functionality following the official instructions

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/networ...ertificate

The path in the second command had to be amended as it points to a non existent location.

After the pfx has been created and the system has been configured to use it in the admin web GUI I received no errors but the https page on port 8920 is inaccessible.

   

   

   

   

It seems the https service is not being enabled?

Code:

sudo ss -tup

Toggling IPv6 on or off makes no difference. If I attempt to restart the server from the web GUI it hangs and does not restart. See attached debug log. I am then forced to reboot the entire VM from the terminal.

I would expect to see a service running on 8920 in the output above.

I am using Firefox 122 to connect. Playback over http on 8096 appears to be working fine. My media library was scanned without issue.

Am I doing something wrong? I have very much tried to RTFM in this case.

First post. Please be gentle.

Thanks in advance.
