"Could not start Jellyfin server process after the specified wait period."

[chaos2go]

thanks for your Replay , yes i know . I tried it first with the new Final release and hat the same Problem .

Found the Issue ...

Had duplicates in the migrated DB

Make A copy of the DB file in "C:\ProgramData\Jellyfin\Server\data"

use https://sqlitebrowser.org/ --> DB Browser --> open DB file to work with

SELECT Type, Value, COUNT(*) as Anzahl
FROM ItemValues
GROUP BY Type, Value
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;

Search for entries who ar dublicated

SELECT ROWID, Type, Value
FROM ItemValues
WHERE Type = 3 AND Value = 'Dublicate Value entry ';

as example in my case

SELECT ROWID, Type, Value
FROM ItemValues
WHERE Type = 3 AND Value = 'Ay Yapım';


Next step, delete duplicated ROWID

DELETE FROM ItemValues
WHERE ROWID = one Value of a dubplicatet ROWID here;

example

DELETE FROM ItemValues
WHERE ROWID = 125;

now you can check again with

SELECT Type, Value, COUNT(*) as Anzahl
FROM ItemValues
GROUP BY Type, Value
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;

repeat for each duplicatet value

safe and make sure that the name of DB file is correct --> start jellyfin again.

give him a bit time to run

"i thought it didn't work, my brother said in the morning he couldn't find the new files ...

so now I did a new scan of the libraries and everything is back to normal. "


cheers , hope it helps others too.

and thanks for the cool community
