    Hello, Jellyfin Forum! This is my first post on this forum. I wanted to ask for help with a problem I've been having since the last Jellyfin update. I have a server hosted locally on an Unraid system, set up as a Docker container. I created a directory that appears on the server as /temporary where I want cache files and such to be saved, so that transcodings or cache files don't fill up the Docker hard drive space. After the last update, I had a lot of trouble getting the server to start. I managed to fix it by completely deleting the contents of this temporary folder. It was working fine for the past few days, but since yesterday or this morning, I haven't been able to get the server to start and run again. I tried changing the folder name in the configuration file system.xml, giving it another name like "cache", but that didn't work either. Deleting the files again also didn't allow the Docker container to start properly. I'm attaching the Log file that appears; I see the problem is with the .jellyfin-cache and .jellyfin-transcode files that are generated, but I can't resolve the error. 

    Log file https://pastebin.com/ztHLYxrM

    Thx  Grinning-cat

    EDIT:  Finally, I managed to resolve it. It seems the problem was that the cache and transcoding directories were the same. I created different paths for them, deleted all the cache content, and manually edited the configuration XML files.
