    I was tranferring files to my server when I realized I capped out on its storage capacity. After doing some rearranging and deleting of files to make space, I connected another SSD via usb and mounted it in /media/ in its own directory. I added that path (or at least as much as I could get to it, i was only able to access where it was mounted in jellyfin server) to where it was mounted. Since then, I cant access the server on my roku or my laptop. SSHing into the server and using htop i can see all 4 cores PINNED to 100%. I am stumped. Here are the logs:

    Last bit of the log, it was too big for pastebin

    you seem to accedentilly added / as a library path, causing jellyfin trying to enumerate your whole system more or less crashing it
    typos are finders, keepers.
    Next Jellyfin release 10.11.0 will be Soon™

    Alrighty then, should I just restart the system and hop in the server to change the path before it rescans the library?

    Edit: just did that, and tried to manually rescan the library and its just stuck at 0%.

    Ive been searching everywhere for a problem like mine and cant find anything. At this point should I just uninstall and reinstall the server?

    Go into your Dashboard and check for a library misconfigured. The misconfigured one might just have "/mnt/" only.

       

    Then click the three dots on the library to "Manage library", find one that just has "/" set and change it.

    Tried that, and it was not working. Kept getting the same issue. Ended up uninstalling the server entirely and doing a fresh install.
