Hi, I'd just like to say thanks in advance for any advice. Basically, I'm running into a weird problem where Jellyfin won't show me the initial set up page when first accessing the web gui after a fresh install from 'curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash'.
- Debian 12.7-1 LXC on Proxmox kernel 6.8.
I was running Jellyfin through Docker inside the LXC successfully for weeks, but recently purchased an Intel Arc A380 card to be able to transcode more efficiently. After struggling to get Jellyfin to use my GPU that way, I decided it would be easier to just run Jellyfin outside of Docker to avoid the permissions headache of passing /dev/dri to Docker by running it directly on the LXC. But it won't show me the initial startup page after installing Jellyfin. I'm mounting /config /data /log /cache from a zfs pool, but shouldn't matter on a fresh install since it's not used by default. I've even removed the mount points to confirm, and recreated the CT and reinstalled and it still refuses to show me the setup.
When I try to use the Forgot Password function it tells me that I need to be on my home network, which obviously I am. I access the web gui from my desktop PC at 192.168.1.101/24 and the LXC is set as a static IP at 192.168.1.23/24.
I made sure that <IsStartupWizardCompleted>false</IsStartupWizardCompleted> is set in system.xml.
Is there a default login? like UN:Jellyfin/PW:Jellyfin? (I've tried that)
I don't care about preserving anything except my library at this point.
Thanks again in advance.
