    Follow this process to migrate to the new Ubuntu server.

    Backup/migrate these folders on the CentOS host.

    /etc/jellyfin
    /var/lib/jellyfin
    /var/cache/jellyfin

    Install Jellyfin 10.10.3 on the new Ubuntu host. Once the install completes, stop the Jellyfin service.

    Restore the folders I mentioned above. Then ensure jellyfin owns the folders.

    sudo chown -R jellyfin: /etc/jellyfin /var/lib/jellyfin /var/cache/jellyfin

    Start the Jellyfin service. It will likely take several minutes to start since it has to apply A LOT of database migrations going from 10.8.10 to 10.10.3. Be patient, do not interrupt it.
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
    Storage
