How do I update on Linux?

"jellyfin start" is not the right way to start jellyfin.  The jellyfin service is managed by systemctl.

Code:

sudo systemctl status jellyfin

Let's start over.  Follow these instructions exactly.

Code:

sudo apt purge jellyfin*
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/jellyfin /etc/jellyfin /var/cache/jellyfin
curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash
sudo ufw allow 8096

Code:

admin@pop-os:~$ sudo systemctl status jellyfin
[sudo] password for admin:

I did the other commands and they worked fine. I then opened the IP:8096 that it gave me in the Terminal in a private tab and the Dashboard is still saying 10.8.

And then:

Code:

You should see the service as 'active (running)' above. If not, use https://jellyfin.org/contact to find us for troubleshooting.

You can access your new instance now at http://IP:8096 in your web browser to finish setting up Jellyfin.

Thank you for installing Jellyfin, and happy watching!
