SOLVED: Fedora 40 "You must install or update .NET to run this application."

[jonm]

I've installed 10.9.4 using the rpms from rpmfusion. 

When I try and run jellyfin I get: 

Code:

# ./jellyfin
You must install or update .NET to run this application.
App: /usr/lib64/jellyfin/jellyfin
Architecture: x64
Framework: 'Microsoft.NETCore.App', version '8.0.0' (x64)
.NET location: /usr/lib64/jellyfin/

No frameworks were found.

To install missing framework, download:
https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.NETCore.App&framework_version=8.0.0&arch=x64&rid=linux-x64&os=fedora.40

However it is already there - it was installed as a dependency, and when I try and (re) install it I get: 

Code:

# dnf install aspnetcore-runtime-8.0

Package aspnetcore-runtime-8.0-8.0.4-1.fc40.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

What could the problem be here?

Does fedora not have systemd? Normally you start jellyfin with "sudo systemctl start jellyfin" for package installs.

[jonm]

It does have systemd and that's how I would normally start, however it's failing to start via systemd (and putting nothing in the logs) so I was trying to figure out why...

[jonm]

OK now I see it's writing to /var/log/messages - same error when I try and start via systemd as well.

Perhaps dotnet-runtime-8.0 is the other package you need?

Fixed - it looks like there was a load of files left from an earlier version, I manually deleted them all, then reinstalled 10.9.4 now it's running OK.
