Need help moving from unstable 10.9 to stable 10.9.2

[mellyor]

Ahoi, I need some help upgrading from unstable 10.9 server-version to the new stable 10.9.2. I am running Jellyfin on Ubuntu.

I deleted the unstable repository via the dashboard and added the stable repo:

https://repo.jellyfin.org/files/plugin/manifest.json


I edited the jellyfin.sources like this:

Types: deb
URIs: https://repo.jellyfin.org/ubuntu
Suites: jammy
Components: main
Architectures: amd64
Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/jellyfin.gpg


When I run "sudo apt-get install --reinstall jellyfin jellyfin-server jellyfin-web"
I get the following message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Reinstallation of jellyfin is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
Reinstallation of jellyfin-server is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
Reinstallation of jellyfin-web is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
  at
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.


And nothing further happens; what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

The problem above still remains

So your problem is that you can't switch from unstable 10.9 to stable 10.9? If so, I'm not sure you can without removing the unstable packages first.

1) Backup /var/lib/jellyfin and /etc/jellyfin
2) sudo apt purge jellyfin*
3) sudo apt install jellyfin
4) sudo systemctl stop jellyfin
5) Restore /var/lib/jellyfin and /etc/jellyfin from the backups
6) sudo chown -R jellyfin: /var/lib/jellyfin /etc/jellyfin
7) sudo systemctl start jellyfin

So I did all the steps and now Jellyfin is running on version 10.9.2
However all my settings and libraries are gone even tho I restored the backups xD

Did unstable use a different folder structure?

Did unstable use a different folder structure?

I had similar issues when moving from arch ffmpeg-git back to 10.8.13. I had to rebuild in the end .

Everything is set up again but I got one more question:
How can I make Jellyfin startup on boot?

I followed the instructions in this guide:
https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/instal...t-optional

But that got me nowhere. I think the problem is this line: User=youruser
I replaced it with my Ubuntu login but that did not do the trick. Should I run Jellyfin as root?

systemctl enable jellyfin
should set the service to autostart

Jellyfin usually also creates a "jellyfin" user.... I would recommend to not use root for any service.
