Trouble Accessing Jellyfin Web UI After Update on TrueNAS 13.0-U6.1

Apps and Virtualization
1

Hello TrueNAS Community,

I recently updated my Jellyfin instance, which is running in a jail on my TrueNAS system (version 13.0-U6.1). Since the update, I am unable to access the Jellyfin web UI. When I attempt to connect, I receive the following message:

Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.115:8096.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Additional Details:

Jellyfin version: 10.9.4
TrueNAS version: 13.0-U6.1
The jail configuration includes VNET enabled and IPv6 set to inherit.
Jellyfin service is running as per service jellyfin status, but it is not binding to port 8096 (verified via sockstat -l | grep jellyfin).

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

Verified that the Jellyfin service is running.
Checked the log file /var/db/jellyfin/log/log_20240625.log for errors. Logs indicate Jellyfin is starting but not binding to the port.
Ensured that allow.mlock is enabled in the jail settings.
Reinstalled Jellyfin and checked for the necessary .NET dependencies.
Verified that VNET and network settings are properly configured in the TrueNAS GUI.
Attempted to start Jellyfin manually and monitored logs for additional errors.

Despite these efforts, Jellyfin still fails to bind to port 8096, and I am unable to access the web UI. I was working for a couple of years, updates are normally fine.

EDIT:
I dont even seem to be able to execute the jellyfin file but it exists. Very confused.

root@jellyfin:~ # /usr/local/jellyfin/jellyfin --version
Failed to create CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x8007054F
root@jellyfin:~ # ls -l /usr/local/jellyfin/jellyfin
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  64720 Jun  2 00:42 /usr/local/jellyfin/jellyfin

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you in advance for your help!

I think the 10.9.4 version is broken. Switch your jail branch to latest instead of quarterly and do a pkg upgrade to get to 10.9.6

Switching to latest repo is done by


mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos
echo 'FreeBSD: { url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest" }' > /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf

i did that but no luck. I dont see version 10.9.6 anyhow?

did i do it wrong? i added the repo line in the jellyfin jail not the truenas ssh, i assume that was what you mean me to do.

Yes from the jail
Try

pkg upgrade -f
5

Its not listed in the upgrade list at all? so i stopped it.

What does this return?

Also is your jail 13.1 or 13.2?

13.1 is EOL

^^, novel, i get 2 for the price of one. but yea, 10.9.4

Well i dont know what that means. (i know it means end of life) but other than that i dont. I would try recreating the jail but i did spend quite a lot of time getting the settings how i wanted it and the user accounts.

The jail is 13.2-RELEASE-p11

9

According to this post 10.9.4 doesn’t work on a 13.2 jail.

Ahh, we have ignition, thank you.

So i removed the jellyfin package, found the /var/cache/pkg/jellyfin-10.8.13_1.pkg and installed it. then i locked it. Reset the jail and we are back in business. I just have to try and remember that i locked it whenever that 13.3 updates comes around.

root@jellyfin:~ # pkg remove jellyfin

You can also use pkg lock -l to list all locked packages, in case you forget if something is locked.

I’m having the same issue here, except I’m using package 10.9.6 and truenas Core 13.2, with according jails… Would anyone be so kind as to help me out?

13

Sorry, im still locked to jellyfin-10.8.13_1

I have not touched it since then, so if you have already tried downgrading the package i can not suggest anything.

But im sure someone might.

14

Update to the 13,3-BETA 2 and then upgrade your jellyfish pkg. or wait till the release of 13.3 this coming week and do the same. That is the best way.

15

updating to 13.3 beta… fingers crossed.
Did not cross my fingers hard enough it seems…
I’ll wait till the final version and see
