    installed linux mint fresh along w/ a fresh copy of jellyfin (about a week old install at this point)

    initially installed jellyfin via the software manager but i had some issues w/ the flatpak version so i uninstalled it via the software manager and feeling like that wasn't enough, i purged it using 

    Code:
    sudo apt purge jellyfin*

    and then ran 

    Code:
    sudo rm -rf /var/lib/jellyfin /etc/jellyfin /var/cache/jellyfin /usr/share/jellyfin

    i then re-installed jellyfin using 

    Code:
    curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash

    made sure to enable it at boot w/

    Code:
    sudo systemctl enable jellyfin

    after configuring it, i noticed that one of the libraries disappeared from the recently added media list on the home page, I originally planned to look into it further but... life.

    about 3hrs after i noticed the missing library i rebooted the entire system after installing jellyfin plugins and updating already installed apps on the system.

    jellyfin now refuses to start after reboot, so i ran this

    Code:
    justtrife@Pandoras-Box:~$ sudo systemctl status jellyfin

    initially thought that was odd so i started it again with the command 

    Code:
    sudo systemctl start jellyfin

    and then checked the status immediately after and got the EXACT same thing as above.

    in effort to figure out what exactly was causing this i ran 

    Code:
    sudo journalctl -u jellyfin
     

    and i got this

    i am now at a loss as of this moment on how to move foward. any help would be greatly appreciated.

    i am comfortable w/ linux but have a lot to learn in the way of terminal commands but am eager to learn so that way i can triage these situations on my own in the future, if you could accompany any advice along w/ the commands needed to complete them, it would be greatly appreciated.

    How is this a fresh Jellyfin install when I am seeing a bunch of non-default plugins being loaded?

    the first thing i did after the inital setup of the libraries is install plugins for metadata scraping and etc.

    order of operations would be install, admin user setup, turn off real time monitoring and enable nfo scraping as i setup the libraries so i don't overwrite /lose any hand edited metadata (all done through previous jellyfin installs btw), then as soon as i'm able to pull up the dashboard, i install plugins so after jellyfin does it's inital media scan i would then go back through the libraries and re-enable real time monitoring and then select the applicable scrapers, this way new media gets bagged & tagged as soon as it's added and the older media doesn't require any future editing, i've had issues where some titles metadata gets displayed wrong or it chooses the wrong title, crawling through over 7K+ movies/shows to search for the handful of titles that may be tagged incorrectly is a headache i never want to face again.
