jellyfin-server dissappears after few seconds.

[EinfachFinn]

Hello there!
After what feels like forever of trying, rebooting, reinstalling etc. I'm posting this now.

The problem:
After setting up my jellyfin server, I can access it via app or web browser.
For the first few seconds everything works fine, but after trying some media I get disconnected and cannot reconnect.
Restarting the Jellyfin server does not work, nor does rebooting the PC.
Only on my server-pc itself I can access my jellyfin library with the browser.

My home server setup:
Hp Elitedesk G3 running a fresh install of Kubuntu:
External NTFS harddrive 1tb, mounted and also in fstab file;
Router: FritzBox7510
My log: https://pastebin.com/UZrvBuRQ

I'm so done with this, I spend my whole weekend on this project and I want to quit this all so bad!

I hope somebody can help me!
I'm happy to provide any information needed!

Thank you all in advance!
Finn

First, it looks like Jellyfin can't even read the NTFS drive. Read this post about setting that up.

How are you trying to access Jellyfin? Did you allow port 8096 in Linux firewall?

Code:

sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow 8096

Also, once properly mounted, does your media directory has the correct permissions set up for the jellyfin server to access its content? 

If Jellyfin is running under its own user, I would probably try

Code:

sudo chmod -R 755 /path/to/your/media

then add the jellyfin user to your user group, and assign owners:

Code:

sudo usermod -aG yourusername jellyfin
sudo chown -R yourusername:yourusername /path/to/your/media

Make sure your media is somewhere outside your home directory. If you want the jellyfin user to be able to write files, such as nfo and other metadata, I think you need to use 775 instead of 755, at least that's how it works for me. If you don't have a group for your user, you can make one with

Code:

sudo groupadd yourusername

but Kubuntu being Ubuntu based I imagine it's already created by default.
