jellyfin.exe missing after Windows update #24

Closed Lillebo closed 4 years ago

Lillebo commented 4 years ago

Just updated my Windows 10 and suddenly the jellyfin.exe file is missing from the server directory.

The update in question is:

Security Intelligence Update for Windows Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (Version 1.313.1802.0)

Hoshigamifd commented 4 years ago

ME TOO !! Only I open jellyfin with view console mode.

anthonylavado commented 4 years ago

Hrm. Haven't had this come up before. Is it the tray app that's missing, or is Jellyfin.exe actually gone?

Lillebo commented 4 years ago

Jellyfin.exe is actually gone 😕 Could you provide a download link for a replacement file so I don't have to reinstall everything and risk losing my meta stuff? I'm on Windows 10 Pro, 64bit.

You can download the ZIP (not the install EXE) and it'll be inside there. Again, I don't think this has happened before. If you suspect a Windows Defender update has removed it, check the Defender logs to see why it was detected/deleted.

Lillebo commented 4 years ago

I tried downloading the zip and extracting jellyfin.exe into my server directory. But absolutely nothing happens when I try to run the file. No errors, nothing. Running as administrator has no effect either.

anthonylavado commented 4 years ago

We have a new version available now, so if you download it, it will act as an upgrade for you. The upgrade would put a new Jellyfin.exe and other files too.

Lillebo commented 4 years ago

Upgrading to the latest version fixed it, thanks 🙂

Hoshigamifd commented 4 years ago

@anthonylavado thanks . when I click actor picture with upgrading to the new version , loading so slow(about 20s). I have to restore the old version, makes very smoothly. And some movies with long name UI become very large , can't dis[lay "play, delete, watched" icons. :(

@hoshigamifd I think these issues are listed on the jellyfin/jellyfin-web repository. If you haven't yet, I would check there and vote for them :)

I've just downloaded all archives from https://repo.jellyfin.org/?path=/server/portable/latest-stable/any and jellyfin.exe is missing from all of them...

nielsvanvelzen commented 1 month ago

The portable windows builds can be found in https://repo.jellyfin.org/?path=/server/windows/latest-stable/amd64

seguri commented 1 month ago

Thanks. If the portable version is also under /server/windows, the docs at https://jellyfin.org/downloads/windows/ might need to get fixed.

nielsvanvelzen commented 1 month ago

Those docs are correct although not very clear. The "dotnet portable" version requires a dotnet runtime and you'll need to run it from the commandline like so dotnet jellyfin.dll. It's platform independent so that download works on any OS as long as you have a dotnet runtime installed.
