SOLVED: Jellyfin constantly restarts when run as a service, works when run from a terminal

Thanks for the suggestion - this seems to have fixed it. The service now starts on boot and runs stably, and it isn't necessary to start the process in the terminal.

There was one final odd thing - when I first went to the server address in a browser on my laptop (after doing the above), the server was displayed but when I clicked I got the new error "We're unable to connect to the selected server right now. Please ensure it is running and try again." Deleting the server and trying to re-add it didn't work either. 

But after that I tried on the Android app which took me directly to the setup wizard, and once I had successfully gone through that I was able to log on in a new tab in the browser as well.  

Thanks both for your help.
