Rgjtech, Thanks for that, I'm in total agreement, the recommendations are functionally wrong. Infact for a 'Production' system you do not want to auto upgrade to a new release anyway - so that's a bonus !

Ie - all the benefits of using a service over a desktop app.įor updates, a simple script to shutdown the service, install the latest, and re-start is quick and easy. To shutdown - stop the service.ĭelayed Startup (to allow time for disk pooling/mounts etc) Restart on failure - bonus is if you do a shutdown in Emby (by mistake), it just restarts emby.
I run emby as a service and have it set as a service should be. The emby 'recommendations' are there to avoid support calls on upgrades, they are frankly wrong. and it would allow it to handle restarting the service and keep it running all the time. this lets you decouple the main emby.exe from the windows service component but still can handle updates automatically through ui.
Emby server keeps shutting down update#
Windows service wrapper app that has a small amount of logic in there that will handle a bit of extra logic needed to let emby update itself then restart the main emby.exe after completion. I could very well be wrong, but from my like decades of IT servers experience, the primary purpose of having a windows service is to keep something running so that its accessible at all times.Īlso given the fact that the docs mention you can't update when its a service, i think a better architecture would be to have a small then it doesn't really provide any benefit. So i feel like if we use nssm to disable auto restart. With windows task scheduler you can start applications without being logged in using whatever account as well, I know that we researched all of the available options at the time and went with what we thought was best. I don't think it's exactly the same, however it's been a few years since I've looked at this and without digging up all of the details again, this is just off the top of my head. i just think that's a design flaw / bug that should be fixed. What is the use case to shutdown a server software from within the software itself? if anything the shutdown button should turn off the machine? Or if someone could enlighten me as to why it's any different?Īlso, the kb says very important to do that otherwise the shutdown button won't work. You may as well just have a scheduled task, to start emby on boot because that's all the nssm is doing with the recommended settings. which is stupid since any crash or anything and the application won't restart. Per the kb article it says to make sure it doesn't restart.
Emby server keeps shutting down how to#
I was reading on how to run emby as a service, and theres is documentation that uses NSSM with some specific settings.Īnd i realized, the recommendations is kind of super useless. I've been running emby for many years and did the nssm thing last time around, but never stopped to read the implications eg no updating properly, and always got irritated that every once in a while if emby crashed it never came back.
