Guide: Running Jellyfin in Synology's DSM 7 Using Docker Compose

[Kurt]

yaml files are sensitive to spacing, so it could have been that.
Sorry about the late response. I was going to suggest that it may have been a permissions issue. Like maybe you switched the user that would run Jellyfin this time or something like that.

Also, take advantage of containers. You're allowed to separate the important data from the rest of the service.
So next time, make a copy of your config folder. So if you ever mess up, you can always go back. For example, Jellyfin v10.9 will make irreversible changes that won't allow your config files to go back to v10.8.13.
With a backup, you could go back.

Same if you mess things up, you got a backup to rely on.

I would even say don't wait for updates to make backups too. You could manually (or with a simple script) make a copy of your config folder at set intervals. This way, you'll always know that you have some form of going back in time if things go bad.

Hi again,
No problem. I only saw your reply now.

When i started from the scratch and decided to create a backup folder (outside of the main one for JF), and then i went to Container Manager -> Container and exported (only) the container settings. And to play safe, i also exported to my pc.

Now it's all working like i want; just need to figure out how to access from outside of my network without having to use a VPN (like Plex and Plexamp).


Thanks for all your time and patience!
