No awards are needed, just wanted to share my excitement that while my Jellyfin server still keeps loosing my entire library every 24 hours at least now it has a domain and ssl cert!

That is all. Happy Friday everyone

a domain and cert doesn't equal zero trust network.

[–] chaospatterns@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

Right. Zero trust means at the very least you need to add AuthN and AuthZ to every endpoint with no exceptions for internal IP addresses.

[–] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 52 points 2 weeks ago

I do also have a zero trust network. Zero friends= zero trust

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Lol.

Still got the library issue, eh? Gonna have to just turn off services/apps/processes until you find the culprit.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

lol, yeah. Gitea is next on the list, but I don't have much more I'm afraid, Immich and Nextcloud are critical apps for me, so if it isn't gitea or minecraft, then I might just setup a new server out of an old laptop to be my Jellyfin server and migrate my library there.

Are you losing your library on reboot?

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Not even on reboot, it just get's deleted somehow, been happening for the past couple of months and I haven't been able to figure out why yet. I posted all about it here (https://lemmy.world/post/32756942) if you are interested in reading about it.

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Do you have the media cleanup plugin installed for Jellyfin? I wonder if you change the PUID and/or GUID if you couldn't make sure Jellyfin wasn't the source of the deletion.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't have that plugin from what I can tell, and I did not install it manually either. What should I try changing the PUID and GUID to?

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I would think the Jellyfin logs would say if it deleted something. But I have to say, I cannot fully understand GUID and PUID in all cases. But you can try to subtract 1 digit from PUID (100 to 99) and then try to delete a show or movie within Jellyfin's interface. If it won't do it, then you've got the permissions at least where it can't delete things. It is possible to not view things as well, so it might take some research or trial and error and make sure you write down where it is now. But, it will remove one factor at least.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Finally caught it! It was Jellyfin stupid ass deleting my media!

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Fuck yeah! One issue down, 9,374 to go!

Apparently is a known bug 🙃

[–] keepee@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] bitwolf@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe this

Although it looks like the nasty docker bug link in that thread is fixed.

So maybe ro mounts can mitigate the problem.

[–] MolochAlter@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Jesus that is not a small bug lol

[–] Dultas@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Any de dupe tasks running and removing them since it sees them in a backup?

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

There where no tasks running outside whatever is setup out of the box when installing jellyfin. I have recently discovered that jellyfin can delete your media if it thinks the media has been removed...

Wierdest logic by the devs.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Can you spin up a VM or a docker image?

I've done this when services misbehave, and just migrate the DB over (Syncthing in particular).

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I may try that at some point but work keeps me pretty busy so it may take me a few weeks before I can try.

[–] garshol@infosec.pub 2 points 2 weeks ago

Curious to how syncthing misbehaved. Care to elaborate?

[–] _core@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What did you use for zero trust?

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why do you want to know? Huh?

[–] _core@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

Its certainly not B/C I'm part of an alphabet agency looking for citizen networks to exploit.

[–] tazeycrazy@feddit.uk 6 points 2 weeks ago

I don't trust my self with this kind of responsibility.
