From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Jellyfin assistance (lemmy.ml)

Hello, I yet again come, hat in hand, for assistance from those wiser in the ways of the Linux. I’m having a bit of an issue downloading Jellyfin on my ElementaryOS laptop. I’ve tried all the guide on the first few pages of ddg only to receive errors after entering the comman “ sudo apt-get update “. I get ERR:3 https//repo.jellyfin.org/debian circle Release 404 Not found.

If someone can point me the way I’d be most appreciative

I was so ill prepared I didn’t even know what docker was. I definitely jumped the gun on the media server lol. Eh, blessing in disguise since I’m now getting such info I guess. Thank y’all for being kind to an ignoramus

Jumping in over your head is how you learn. Just be patient!

So, Jellyfin is one of those apps where the Docker documentation is really lacking. I'm gonna give you my docker-compose.yml file in case it helps:

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin
    user: 0:0
    restart: 'unless-stopped'
    ports:
      - '8096:8096'
    environment:
      #- JELLYFIN_CACHE_DIR=/var/cache/jellyfin
      #- JELLYFIN_CONFIG_DIR=/etc/jellyfin
      - JELLYFIN_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/jellyfin
      - JELLYFIN_LOG_DIR=/var/log/jellyfin
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - ./cache:/cache
      - ./data:/var/lib/jellyfin
      - ./log:/var/log/jellyfin
      - /data/jellyfin:/data/jellyfin
    devices:
      - /dev/dri

For me /data/ is my RAID array, which is why my jellyfin data directory is there. Everything else goes in the same directory as the compose file. My system has a graphics card that does transcoding (Arc A380), so I have /dev/dri under devices.

You should learn a lot about Docker Compose, because it will help you tremendously. I use Jellyfin behind an Nginx Proxy Manager reverse proxy. I'd highly recommend it. Here's my compose file for that:

services:
  app:
    image: 'jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest'
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: "host"
    #ports:
    #  - '80:80'
    #  - '81:81'
    #  - '443:443'
    volumes:
      - ./data:/data
      - ./letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt

Running in "host" mode is important, instead of just forwarding ports, because it lets you forward things to localhost, like pointing https://media/.[mydomain]/ to http://127.0.0.1:8096/ for Jellyfin.

Anyway, best of luck to you, and I hope that helps!
