Issue: log files are appearing in the same folder as TV shows, causing Jellyfin to see these as TV shows.
Desired outcome: Have log files places somewhere else so this doesn’t happen
Thanks
Sonarr’s log files are in the AppData Directory, if you’ve added that as a folder in Jellyfin you’ll want to remove it, but otherwise Sonarr doesn’t create log files in it’s root folders.
Oh gosh, I’m not sure I understand that - my ignorance is very high.
I’ve not knowingly added anything to JF as such. I just installed it and let it be.
How do I find out what I have and where, and ultimately adjust?
I didn’t have this issue with Plex so wondering why it’s happening with JF
Sonarr’s Settings section is saying: Log files are located in: /mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/logs
And on my Dietpi the folder that contains me TV shows is /mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr
The files/folder that are creating imaginary TV shows in JF are:
/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/UpdateLogs
/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/Sentry
/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/Backups
/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/MediaCover
/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/logs
You do not want your Root folder to be the same as your app folder.
Move your Root folder (all your shows) somewhere else.
How do I do that, and also make sure JF knows where to look for the media files?

And then point JF at the same location
Thanks for this.
I’m not so sure I structured the folders as per the linked article, but it did give me the confidence to go about making some changes, which appear to have worked - well from a getting rid of the log files showing in Jellyfin.
Hopefully I’ve adjusted the settings in Sonarr to enable future media to be sent to the right place!
