After adding files Gerbera crashes with: "libupnp ThreadPoolAdd too many jobs: 100" error message about gerbera HOT 12 CLOSED

The main cause of this issue is the way libupnp was compiled (#178).

How did you retrieve your container? Which distro was the base for it? Did it already come with libupnp?

from gerbera.

I used the docker-compose from here:
https://hub.docker.com/r/gerbera/gerbera

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  gerbera:
    image: gerbera/gerbera
    container_name: gerbera
    network_mode: host
    volumes:
      - gerbera-config:/var/run/gerbera
      - /some/files:/mnt/content:ro

volumes:
  gerbera-config:
    external: false

Seems you're running into a server crash. The upnp messages seem out of scope here.

Can you try the latest container: gerbera/gerbera:edge-transcoding

from gerbera.

This gives me a different error and also crashes:

I just updated the container to alpine 3.19.

It's the problem with ffmpeg libraries on alpine. I have to collect the required ones again.

Sorry.

from gerbera.

No sorry needed! Really appreciate you looking into this! Thank you so much for the replys and troubleshooting with me.

Let me know when I should be good to go to check it again. Also, when checking, should I use gerbera/gerbera image? Or should I try again with: gerbera/gerbera:edge-transcoding?

I noticed the other one mentions transcoding, I dont know if it makes a difference but I want to use it mostly for direct play of music files, with no transcoding needed (at least I think I did not set anything up for transcoding).

I don't understand how alpine handles dependencies, but now it works (a least on my side)

Ok great, i'll try again tonight once i get home with using the gerbera/gerbera image.

Hello, I tried everything again last night. I first just rebuilt container but it was still crashing. I then deleted config and started from scratch, added each autoscan (inotify) folder individually, instead of one big folder. Everything seemed to be going smoothly but eventually it still crashed 2 hours after my setup had been completed. This time there is nothing useful in the logs. So it seems issue is not to do with what I posted here.
I am now trying to just remove the autoscan from all folders and see if it still crashes.

If you build the container yourself, you may try building the Dockerfile.debug version and run gerbera within the debugger (gdb)

EDIT: You can also run gerbera with --debug to get a looong debug printout

Heya, thanks for the tip. For now I dont want to yet go down that path, as have not done the docker building from scratch yet.

So atm, it seems to be running fine, but I did notice it shuts down around 22:01 for some reason in the evening. Will investigate into this some more.

I shall close this ticket as original issue has been solved, I no longer see the error messages about 'libupnp'.

Thanks for your help!
