Official Container Image Naming (RC)

[vegedb]

RC1

Here is the quote,

The second is for Docker users: the RC is at a new tag, stable-rc, with this particular version being 10.7.0-rc1. This ensures that users on the latest tag aren't in for a sudden surprise upgrade. Like the Debuntu users, you must manually enable this tag to help test, then switch again to the latest tag for the final release.

Hope you change to their naming convention, I'm totally confused as to which is which in your dockerhub

Thanks for opening your first issue here! Be sure to follow the issue template!

There is nothing confusing about it. Our latest is built from their stable repo and our nightly is built from their unstable repo. They are both listed in our readme.

The docker hub images are all tagged with the upstream version numbers as they appear in their repos.

Their release candidates are not in any of their repos therefore we won't be building them.

@aptalca I see that's a shame. I have an issue changing to the official container (RC). It simply doesn't read my previous library (config,cache) made using linuxserver. I only changed the image to jellyfin/jellyfin from linuxserver/jellyfin.

How do you convert linuxserver to the official container?

[aptalca]

Switching between our and others' images is not something we support. You should probably set up a fresh instance of the other container, compare their persistent folder structure to ours and make any necessary changes. But that's about the extent of the support we can provide.

[vegedb]

As far as I can see there's no issue on the volumes as they are the exact same. I can docker exec bash and see the folders/contents are there. I'm stuck.

I'm also trying to migrate right now. Current issue from what I understand is I mounted the config directory for the linuxserver image like so: - /storage/containers/jellyfin/config:/config

10.6.x

But it appears the folder structure is different for the jellyfin image: stable-rc (not fresh install)

Notice the config folder in there.

/storage/containers/jellyfin-broken/config/config$ ls
dlna  encoding.xml  logging.default.json  migrations.xml  network.xml  system.xml

This is not a clean install it was an attempt at migrating. Some files are moved in their own config folder.

[Extarys]

To migrate, assuming you have a volume mounted like so:

/storage/jellyfin/config:/config
/storage/jellyfin/cache:/cache

(I know above I have a containers/ folder I just forgot to put it down here, doesn't change much for ya)

Stop the container I should have also maybe disabled the plugins as they caused some errors at startup after upgrade but, well.

Create a backup:

• Delete everything in the ./transcode folder.
• tar -cv -I 'xz -8 -T0' -f /storage/jellyfin-old.tar.xz /storage/jellyfin

Go to /storage/jellyfin/config All commands must be typed from there.

mkdir config
mv encoding.xml logging.default.json metadata.xml migrations.xml system.xml branding.xml dlna ./config

mv ./data/metadata ./metadata
mv ./data/root ./root
mv ./data/transcodes ./transcodes
mv ./data/plugins ./plugins
mv ./data/data ./data2
# go to ./data and make sure it's empty, no left over files. my install didn't have anything else there so I deleted it
rmdir ./data
mv ./data2 ./data

mv ./ScheduledTasks ./data/ScheduledTasks
mv ./cache ../

# NOT SURE if they go there but whatever, probably :laughing: 

mv xbmcmetadata.xml playback_reporting.xml ./config

Change image:linuxserver/jellyfin:latest to image:jellyfin/jellyfin:stable-rc Start the container.

Worked for me, all users are there and my progress too. I didn't test plugins yet but it should work also.

If you messed up, or I messed up - remove jellyfin folder and extract your backup:

rm -rf ./jellyfin
tar -xf jellyfin-old.tar.xz ./jellyfin

@vegedb

EDIT: Intros and Skin Manager were broken, I had to remove and reinstall them.

[Extarys]

@aptalca The RC release is in the jellyfin repo: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/releases/tag/v10.7.0-rc1

Or did you mean something else?

[aptalca]

@Extarys I'm referring to the debian/ubuntu package repos

[faizpuru]

To migrate, I just had to define these variables in my docker compose :

- JELLYFIN_DATA_DIR=/config/data
- JELLYFIN_CONFIG_DIR=/config
- JELLYFIN_LOG_DIR=/config/log
- JELLYFIN_CACHE_DIR=/config/cache

[Extarys]

@faizpuru Yeah I had to restore my backup and do the same. Some paths are hardcoded into the database for each file in a BLOB column, which make it very difficult to change.
