Hi everyone,
I’m running jellyfin in a jail on trueNAS Core.
after updating jellyfin I can not access it anymore. I then installed it in a 2nd jail side-by-side and this fresh install has the exact same problem.
I am not sure how to debug this…
Any directions or advice what I should look for or try?

TL;DR
Upgrade to 13.3 BETA, or install previous package and lock it, then once the 13.3 release comes out, update it.
hey thanks alot. it sounds promising. I have gone through that thread and it makes sense to me what I need to do. I am however very inexperienced with trueNAS.
So when using the web gui, I just go to jails > jellyfin jail > shell?
Or do I have to use the main shell of trueNAS?
I’ll try to follow the instructions from that thread you linked.

You can go to the jail and then shell. That way you will be inside the jail.
just so I understand correctly: I use the existing jail? I don’t have to create a new jail and migrate?

You can use the existing jail.
I can not find the instructions to upgrade the jail. In that other thread it is about updating jellyfin…
is it
pkg update
pkg upgrade
and then picking the jail package?

That will update all the packages and put jellyfin at the latest version, which is not compatible with CORE 13.0
You need to either upgrade your TrueNAS install to the new 13.3 beta, or reinstall the jellyfin package from your pkg cache and lock it so it doesn’t update.

root@jellyfin:~ # pkg remove jellyfin
root@jellyfin:~ # pkg add /var/cache/pkg/jellyfin-10.8.13_1.pkg
root@jellyfin:~ # pkg lock jellyfin
Try the above commands.
I’m trying this right now from the trueNAS shell:
iocage upgrade -r 13.3-BETA2 Jellyfin

13.2 is actually EOL already, so best to use 13.3
Only problem is that 13.3 jails are not really compatible with a 13.1 host which is what CORE is at right now.

And no, the update to 13.3 beta is done in the main TrueNAS install. After that you can upgrade your jails using
iocage upgrade 13.3-RELEASE jellyfin
iocage command is not available from inside the jail it seems
oh my god, I was blind. I’ll update trueNAS now. sorry for my misunderstanding

Yeah they have to be done outside the jail. I thought you were trying to reinstall the jellyfin package.
I would update TrueNAS to 13.3 beta, then the jail, then it should just work after that.

yeah my bad, I completely missed the part that I had to upgrade trueNAS itself. I am picking the beta “train” now

Make sure its the CORE beta train.
the shell is gone from the web gui…

Yes unfortunately that is something they removed. I hope you know SSH…
