Howdy all, I am having this issue with jellyfin not starting because port 8096 is in use, but there is nothing showing as using that port. I am running Ubuntu 22.04, kept up to date, jellyfin installed via apt, nginx in front as a reverse proxy, with Lets Encrypt certs. It has been running perfectly for about 18-20 months, and yesterday while watching a video, the system updated and now it will not start:
[2024-05-15 20:33:27.203 +10:00] [ERR] Kestrel failed to start! This is most likely due to an invalid address or port bind - correct your bind configuration in network.xml and try again
[2024-05-15 20:33:27.203 +10:00] [FTL] Error while starting server
System.IO.IOException: Failed to bind to address http://127.0.0.1:8096: address already in use.
Is there something that has changed in the jellyfin update that has caused this issue to crop up?
Quick update, I have tried deleting the network.xml as per some other posts, but the file did not regenerate automatically, so i restored the file. I have also made changes to the actual port number in the jellyfin and nginx configs, but no go, same result as above.
