June 25, 20206 yr As per the pictures. Anyone know what is suddenly causing these issues? I haven't changed any user settings, any general settings, network settings or done any OS update or installed any new plugins and this just started happening out of the blue.
June 28, 20206 yr Community Expert Nothing is jumping out to me, just some previous unrelated read errors with the docker image and some log spam, since it's GUI related maybe @bonienlwill have an idea.
June 28, 20206 yr You have CA auto-update installed, perhaps something went wrong in this process? Start in safe mode and check again.

(Nor /tmp/unassigned.devices) My best guess at the moment is that /tmp is mapped to a docker container (Jellyfin?) (or alternatively a user-script) for scratch space in transcoding and that container has deleted the contents of /tmp willy-nilly, causing the issues. Ultimately a reboot is required to recover.
June 30, 20206 yr Author I guess it's Jellyfin, see pictures. Shutting it down and rebooting the server doesn't seem to fix the problem. Have I messed up something in the build? I changed also the /tmp flag to another folder in JF and I'm still getting these UI errors too. Would it maybe be a good idea for UI elements/plugins to not rely on /tmp as well... a persistent place for UI element storage? Edited June 30, 20206 yr by plantsandbinary
June 30, 20206 yr Instead of /cache <--> /tmp, do /cache <--> /tmp/jellyfin if you want. You'd still need to reboot for anything to ultimately take effect. 6 hours ago, plantsandbinary said: Would it maybe be a good idea for UI elements/plugins to not rely on /tmp as well... a persistent place for UI element storage? /tmp is used in every OS by multiple programs. This is all OK. What isn't OK is if program X deletes the tmp files from program Y. Since JellyFin as far as it was concerned had exclusive rights to /tmp (as per the screenshot), it felt it can delete whatever it wants.
