Not updating library after update to 10.11.0

[frankmikalsen]

Updated to Jellyfin 10.11.0 in Unraid today.

-Now it will not find movies when scanning. I have named them as all other movies.
-When putting a movie into a Collection, it takes a long time before my collections show up and a can choose. This was really quick before the update.
-And when putting a movie in a collection, it still shows in Movies for a long time. Before the collection popped up right away, and the movie was away from movies and inside the collection.


What causes this?

It was working really good before the update.


Thanks in advance

I am running in a docker container on Ubuntu and had a similar issue. It would not automatically add items from automatic library scans, but manual ones would work. This is what I did with the help of Gemini. Check the log file and look for a line that looks like this

System.IO.IOException: The configured user limit (XXXXX) on the number of inotify watches has been reached

If you see it, then that is the issue. It's the way the update handles reads, writes and processes data.

I increased the inotify limit by using the following two commands in terminal

Code:

echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.d/40-max-user-watches.conf

Then this one

Code:

sudo sysctl --system

Then verify the command worked

Code:

cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches

Restart the Jellyfin container and you should be all set. Also check the log for failing plugins. I disabled them, rebooted, and installed them again and everything is running perfect again

This might not work for you, but worked for me.
