[Solved] hlsjs: Video file not found

[jjbrash2012]

Hello all,

I'm in the process of re-installing my subsonic server (after a catastrophic hardware failure...). This time I've decided to try setting it up in a LXC linux container (like a virtual machine). The container mounts my host video folder to a local folder within the container. Subsonic is run with a user called "subsonic" who has 401 (read/execute) permissions for the video folder, and only read permission for the video files in the folder.

The problem I have is that when I try and play one of the videos in subsonic I get and error "hlsjs: Video file not found". This happens with all videos in the mounted folder, and with any browser. If I copy one of the videos into a local folder within the container then subsonic will play it without a problem.

So I'm not 100% sure what's going on here. Could it be an issue with folder permissions? Anybody else had this issue before?

Solved this by changing the mount target location within the container. I had previously mount to /mnt/data in the contains and this did not work. Mounting to /var/subsonic-data seems to work. Must be a folder permissions thing ...
