Pruned Directories

[enesha]

Afternoon all

So I have another question for you lovely folks

So..First I went into the Libraries and removed the entry for that drive in any affected libraries.  Then I did a library scan, hoping it would pick it up.  I didn't check on then, and then  I transferred all of the media files from the bad drive, and distributed them among the other drives, updated to the new the new jf version, restarted the server, and triggered another full library scan.  Seems like those steps should work.

However, It won't give it up.  Most of my series are spread around on the drives, so they have to be combined by JF.  No problem, but now, at least on some of the items I checked, the series are listing entries for both the old and new location.  I.e. the item used to be here:
American Greed - S06E01 - Kenneth Starr Naked Greed - Celebrity Scam Artist
Path: /mnt/MainServer8/Media/TV/American Greed (2007)/Season 6/American Greed - S06E01 - Kenneth Starr Naked Greed - Celebrity Scam Artist.mp4
Size: 236 MB

And now it's here:
American Greed - S06E01 - Kenneth Starr Naked Greed - Celebrity Scam Artist
Container: mp4
Path: /mnt/MainServer6/Media/TV/American Greed (2007)/Season 6/American Greed - S06E01 - Kenneth Starr Naked Greed - Celebrity Scam Artist.mp4
Size: 236 MB

both directories are on /mnt/  All I did was remove the entry for MainServer8 from every library.

Any thoughts on this?  I've had problems like this before..Deleting a folder often doesn't remove it from the JF database, and I end up with those phantom entries.  I asked about it one on here, even uploaded a log, and there was no real resolution.

So, what did I do wrong?  Isn't JF supposed to remove items if the path goes away?...Wouldn't that be the desired outcome?  And certainly if I remove a path from the library, it should drop everything that was located on that path..right?

I kinda stopped asking it about this before when I ended up redoing the server and having to put all the stuff back in so there were no phantoms at the time...

Ugh this is frustrating

Thanks!

Sorry to post as a reply...I didn't see the option to edit the comment, and I think I accidentally cut the into the intro sentence.. If it wasn't clear, I was talking about, I had a 12T hdd start to develop bad sectors. So I had to move all the files around...
