Re: [ Jellyfin ] The Free Software Media System

Post by lincooln »

my device is f2-223
my system is iOS 5 ver 5.1.22
installed ModBase1 version 1.00.15
installed ffmpeg version. 4.0
Jellyfin version 10.8.9.0

Jellyfin does not start.
The application center says that the program is disabled. When trying to turn on, the system freezes for 10 seconds and then reports a startup error.

I am connected via SSH .

When starting service start returns an error line 17.

Launched Jellyfin-web manually works. but only before ssh is disabled.

Please tell me how to fix the launch of Jellyfin.
I am not a programmer, but I am familiar with the linux command line.

I also don't understand why the ffmpeg package is needed if it is installed in its directory. how Jellyfin uses its libraries.

Thanks for any help.

Unfortunately the new version doesn't work either.
I even tried adding user Jellyfin to the media group. But it didn't work. Jellyfin won't start.

I tried to remove the line break and \ to run start-stop-demon
but then it swears at the wrong argument -l
in this block
echo -n "Starting $MOD_NAME: "
start-stop-daemon --start \
-c $USER -b --exec $BINDIR/$DAEMON -- \
-d $MODCONFIGPATH/data\
-C $MODCONFIGPATH/cache\
-c $MODCONFIGPATH/config\
-l $MODCONFIGPATH/log \
--ffmpeg $FFMPEGDIR/ffmpeg
echo "ok."
if you remove -l $MODCONFIGPATH/log \ from this block, then the daemon swears at --ffmpeg $FFMPEGDIR/ffmpeg

I do not know what to do. thanks for any help.

download again the app and install it.
Check if you still have issues, the log file is located now in superuser home directory MOD_CONFIG/Jellyfin

It didn't work.
Jellyfin still doesn't work.
logs can only be viewed via SSH
the file is not visible via SMB. and TOS can't open text files.

logs can only be viewed via SSH
not true
the file is not visible via SMB.
the log file is a symlink
The default smb config doesn't have activated the option to follow the symlinks.
If you want to see the symlink in samba just adapt the config as below

If you don't want to adapt the samba config, you can save the file on your computer using TOS Manager

Getting back to your issue, show me also the screen afte you click on Help & Support
