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!

        Ok so you’re using docker, the drive is a USB disk?

        I think you need to:

        • create a mount point folder
        • mount the drive in fstab so it’s available on boot
        • create a dedicated user for Jellyfin to run as
        • make sure the new user has read/write access to the folders with media (this may mean changing ownership, adding to a new or existing group)
        • set the docker container to run as the new user
        • add the mount point as a volume inside the docker container
        • add the folders with media in Jellyfin

          No docker ran it off the terminal and the drive is a portable HHD
