SOLVED: Continue Watching not working for one user after update

[Confused-o-Screaming]

Ran updates for Jellyfin for the newest version and I saw that Continue Watching for my user is not being displayed on the home screen (works fine with other users). Items that I started, but don't finish disappear from the Next Up section like normal, but have to be manually located in my library to continue watching. Attempted to perform the migration again by deleting jellyfin.db and renaming library.db.old back to library.db. When I start the server, this error appears in the log and will repeat itself until I stop the service. Not using docker or anything, just straight apt. Any suggestions? I have this user account integrated with Symfonium so I'd like to resolve it without creating a new user profile for myself. I tried moving UserDatas from library.db to jellyfin.db, but that object doesn't exist in jellyfin.db.

I determined that deleting jellyfin.db caused this error in the logs. However, changing library.db.old back to library.db doesn't cause the migration to start again in an attempt to resolve this problem.

The logs show the migration service being initialized then finding 0 migrations for stage coreinitialization before starting as normal

Edit: This issue is resolved. Looks like scanning all libraries fixed it?

I'm also having this issue, but found that if I click on "Next Up" my partially watched item is there. I did try scanning all libraries from the main dashboard, but that didn't fix it. Any other suggestions? I didn't notice any errors during the upgrade to

I scanned my library after deciding to create a new user to migrate to while keeping the issue user for Symfonium to use. To recreate exactly what I did, try creating a new user, mark a few things as watched, verify that continue watching works then try scanning the library. I ran the scan from the issue user account and didn't exit that dashboard until the scan was finished 

Hopefully that works and it wasnt just a fluke for me. Outside of trying the migration a bunch of times, this is all I "Tried" and accidentally fixed it
