So I finally have my server up and running but I still need a hand.

I cannot access my media library on my internal storage or my 4tb sega gate portable drive I am using. What is the fix for this? Thanks

The issue is resolved I managed to fix it thanks for the help everyone!

That’s what I’m trying to do the files I want to add to the library are on the drive which I can’t see on Jellyfin

    So when you go to create the library in jellyfin you don't see the external drive but see your other drives as options?

    Does the user running the jellyfin service have permissions to read the folder/files? You aren't running jellyfin in docker by chance, right?

    Tried the docker method earlier and had no luck I downloaded and am running it straight off the terminal

    @Pacrat173 can you define “no luck”? Your problem may not be related to docker or the way you run Jellyfin

    When trying to run the docker I got an error. I can access the server both on my PC and phone after I switched the terminal something i hadn’t been able to do with any other method
