I have a new error now: (have updated to 2.0.2) When trying to scan for new books I just added, I keep getting this error. What am I missing here? 2022-04-24 21:32:13 ERROR [FfmpegHelpers] Extract Cover Error Error: ffmpeg exited with code 1: av_interleaved_write_frame(): Input/output error frame= 1 fps=0.0 q=6.9 size=N/A time=00:00:00.00 bitrate=N/A speed= 11x frame= 1 fps=0.0 q=6.9 Lsize=N/A time=00:00:00.00 bitrate=N/A speed=0.00149x video:30kB audio:0kB subtitle:0kB other streams:0kB global headers:0kB muxing overhead: unknown Conversion failed! I did verify that I have ffmpeg installed. Any time I try to scan for new books, I get socket timed out, and/or the scanning just goes away with nothing being done.

I changed the permissions on the audiobookshelf folder to 777 recursive and that seemed to do the trick. Now the books are loading up. Hopefully this will be the last problem I come across. LOL Again, thanks for your help.

Still getting permission errors, and no books showing up.

So I put it back to the /usr/share/audiobookshelf/audiobooks and now it's working again. So it was just my own stupidity. LOL Thank you for your help, and a wonderful script.

wget https://advplyr.github.io/audiobookshelf-ppa/audiobookshelf_2.0.1_amd64.deb sudo apt install ./audiobookshelf_2.0.1_amd64.deb Is how I installed it on my server. But the systemctl audiobookshelf.service is still failing for some reason. It was up and running, until I rebooted the system.

I found the systemctl service, and it's reporting that it failed to start, with exit code 7. I uninstalled it completely and reinstalled it, not doing anything else and it's still fails to start. Any ideas?

I've installed this on my Ubuntu 20 server, and everything was going great. I had to restart the server, and now when I try to go to the page, it says the site can't be reached. Does it need to be loaded at startup? If so, how? What's the command line to start the service? Awesome job! I love it (well, when I had it working. LOL)
