Code:curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash
Hello,
i am also new to jellyfin and in generell new to home media server. I installed the newest version of proxmox and a virtual machine with ubuntu on this server.
Now i am trying to install jellyfin via the console (VM -> Ubuntu) with the recommended installation code (curl -s https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash)
After that the installation process is starting and i have to confirm the installation via <Enter>.
The installation process continues and a few seconds later stops by showing: "chown: cannot access '/etc/jellyfin': No such file or directory." and "ERROR: Failed to install Jellyfin."
I also checked the command: sudo ls -l /etc/jellyfin
-> cannot access '/etc/jellyfin': No such file or directory.
Would highly appreciate if someone can help.
Thanks!
*** Fixed it, by manually creating the folder (sudo mkdir -p /etc/jellyfin) and re-installation of jellyfin ***
Double checked on my desktop and the install went through without having to mkdir /etc/jellyfin. So not sure what prevented that directory from being created on your system during the install.
