    Update : I continued to invesigate the issue on my own, and found that disabling my VPN's "Kill Switch" allows Jellyfin to run again. Once it is running it can stay running even with this VPN feature turned on. I'd turned it on a while ago, but I guess this was the first computer restart since then, so it was the first time Jellyfin tried to boot while it was running.

    I would like to be able to use the VPN Kill Switch and Jellyfin without needing to toggle settings on and off, but it is workable for now. If there's any suggestions about a better fix I'd be appreciative.

    I'm not clear on how to mark a thread as resolved, so I'm just leaving this here unless someone follows up.

    ---

    My VPN is Malwarebytes Privacy , and the problem setting is "Kill Switch: Block all network traffic if the VPN disconnected."
    To be clear, the VPN was not disconnected throughout this so the traffic shouldn't have been getting blocked.
    I want to keep this setting active as I download torrents off the same machine, and having the VPN go down while I am AFK is a problem.
