Database and log issues on JellyFin

[Daves]

My current setup is:
Windows Server 2022 in a VM
IIS ARR as a reverse proxy
JellyFin 10.9.10 and 10.9.11 (tried both)

I have a weird issue, some values in the db just refuse to update, i currently can't: remove devices (only from the proxied version), clear the activity log (both from proxied and localhost), clear the log folder (both proxied or localhost), delete users (only proxied version), remove libraries (proxied only).

other things work just fine, like updating movie data, adding users and libraries.

i don't know what to do anymore, i've reinstalled jellyfin 3 times and the logs haven't been helpful so far.

What do you mean "clear activity log" and "clear log folder"? AFAIK, you can't delete activity entries nor logs from the Jellyfin UI. As for the other issues with libraries, users, and devices that is probably proxy related.

Do you have URL rewrite installed on IIS? Our IIS documentation is linked below. Including the config for setting up URL rewrite.

yes

by the way, i just noticed that sometimes jellyfin doesn't wanna change the movie resolution while playing, this also happens when changing language or adding/removing subtitles midway through a movie

Can you share your full jellyfin logs via pastebin?

i managed to find a partial solution, i fixed everything that was broken on the proxied version by adding the DELETE verb to the allowed list in IIS, basically i had disabled every verb other than GET and POST for a website i host, and hadn't realized that i had done so for the entire web server.

only these tasks remain broken, even when not using jellyfin through the proxy.
   

what should i look for in the log?

If I knew I'd tell you to look for it.  But I don't.  But what I do know is what is "normal".  In fact, the jellyfin log may not even contain what we need since the issue is likely in IIS.

Can you also share your IIS config.

Wait, i fixed the issues i had with the proxy, i now get the same results that i get on the non proxied site, the problem with the scheduled tasks also happens in the non-proxied version, i.e. when accessing through http://10.0.0.1:8096 (10.0.0.1 being my jellyfin server's address)
