    (2025-05-01, 04:35 PM)bitmap Wrote: Are you able to see if you can touch a file in the target directory as the jellyfin user? When I was using NFS I had to squash all UIDs to make it work, but I'm not really familiar with BTRFS. Command to run a touch would be (requires sudo)...

    Code:
    su - jellyfin -c touch /media/violet/pi1.0/test
    su - jellyfin -c touch /media/violet/pi2.0/test

    (I think...)

    the results of that command for /media/violet/pi1.0/:
    Code:
    [18:03:33] [INF] [4] Main: Jellyfin version: 10.10.7
    [18:03:33] [INF] [4] Main: Environment Variables: ["[JELLYFIN_LOG_DIR, /root/.local/share/jellyfin/log]"]
    [18:03:33] [INF] [4] Main: Arguments: ["/usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin.dll", "-c", "touch", "/media/violet/pi1.0/test"]
    [18:03:33] [INF] [4] Main: Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

    [18:03:33] [ERR] [4] Main: The server is expected to host the web client, but the provided content directory is either invalid or empty: /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin-web. If you do not want to host the web client with the server, you may set the '--nowebclient' command line flag, or set'hostwebclient=false' in your config settings

    and for /media/violet/pi2.0/:
    Code:
    [18:07:06] [INF] [1] Main: Jellyfin version: 10.10.7
    [18:07:06] [INF] [1] Main: Environment Variables: ["[JELLYFIN_LOG_DIR, /root/.local/share/jellyfin/log]"]
