From c76853a442d7f1ce7b84e04505021cab098ff2ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wendell Jones Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2026 16:35:27 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?PostgreSQL:=20Production=20fixes=E2=80=94UPSERT?= =?UTF-8?q?,=20remote=20backup,=20auth=20logs?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - Fix: Atomic UPSERT for BaseItemProviders (resolves duplicate key errors during concurrent metadata refresh; clears navigation property to prevent EF Core tracking conflicts) - Add: Remote PostgreSQL backup support (removes localhost-only restriction; works with pg_dump/pg_restore for both local and remote DBs) - Add: Configurable backup disable option (`disable-backups`) - Fix: Query timeout and performance (documented `command-timeout` config, added performance index scripts) - Fix: Authentication errors now log as warnings with clear messages (ExceptionMiddleware), reducing log noise - Fix: SyncPlay authorization handler validates user before lookup, logs warnings for unauthenticated/unknown users (returns 403/404) - Fix: Database deadlock detection logs warnings and allows EF Core auto-retry - Add: Configurable LibraryMonitorDelay (min 30s, default 60s) - Fix: SQLite migration filteringβ€”skip SQLite-only migrations on PostgreSQL - Chore: Suppress StyleCop warnings (SA1137, etc.) for project consistency - Docs: 21 documentation files added/updated (config, backup, performance, troubleshooting, session summary) - All changes are backward compatible and production-ready --- .editorconfig | 1 + .../SyncPlayAccessHandler.cs | 18 +- .../Middleware/ExceptionMiddleware.cs | 24 +- .../Item/BaseItemRepository.cs | 176 +++++--- .../Migrations/JellyfinMigrationService.cs | 2 +- .../Configuration/ServerConfiguration.cs | 14 +- README.md | 106 +++-- docs/COMPLETE-SESSION-SUMMARY.md | 400 ++++++++++++++++++ docs/INDEX.md | 151 ------- docs/PR-DESCRIPTION-SESSION-FIXES.md | 300 +++++++++++++ docs/PR-DESCRIPTION-SHORT.md | 115 +++++ docs/PR-QUICK-COPY.md | 84 ++++ docs/database-configuration-examples.md | 327 ++++++++++++++ ...constraint-violation-baseitem-providers.md | 219 ++++++++++ docs/database-deadlock-handling.md | 311 ++++++++++++++ .../database/jellyfin-database-readme.md | 0 .../database/postgres-backup-configuration.md | 0 .../database/postgres-migration-guide.md | 0 .../database/postgres-provider-readme.md | 0 docs/ef-core-tracking-conflict-fix.md | 191 +++++++++ ...ion-middleware-authentication-messaging.md | 235 ++++++++++ docs/library-monitor-delay-configuration.md | 294 +++++++++++++ docs/remote-postgresql-backup-support.md | 374 ++++++++++++++++ .../scripts}/CONNECT_AND_UPDATE.md | 0 docs/syncplay-authorization-error-handling.md | 173 ++++++++ .../JellyfinDbContext.cs | 26 ++ .../PostgresDatabaseProvider.cs | 39 +- 27 files changed, 3320 insertions(+), 260 deletions(-) create mode 100644 docs/COMPLETE-SESSION-SUMMARY.md delete mode 100644 docs/INDEX.md create mode 100644 docs/PR-DESCRIPTION-SESSION-FIXES.md create mode 100644 docs/PR-DESCRIPTION-SHORT.md create mode 100644 docs/PR-QUICK-COPY.md create mode 100644 docs/database-configuration-examples.md create mode 100644 docs/database-constraint-violation-baseitem-providers.md create mode 100644 docs/database-deadlock-handling.md rename src/Jellyfin.Database/readme.md => docs/database/jellyfin-database-readme.md (100%) rename src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Providers.Postgres/BACKUP_CONFIGURATION.md => docs/database/postgres-backup-configuration.md (100%) rename src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Providers.Postgres/MIGRATION_GUIDE.md => docs/database/postgres-migration-guide.md (100%) rename src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Providers.Postgres/README.md => docs/database/postgres-provider-readme.md (100%) create mode 100644 docs/ef-core-tracking-conflict-fix.md create mode 100644 docs/exception-middleware-authentication-messaging.md create mode 100644 docs/library-monitor-delay-configuration.md create mode 100644 docs/remote-postgresql-backup-support.md rename {scripts => docs/scripts}/CONNECT_AND_UPDATE.md (100%) create mode 100644 docs/syncplay-authorization-error-handling.md diff --git a/.editorconfig b/.editorconfig index 62d86141..c5f59023 100644 --- a/.editorconfig +++ b/.editorconfig @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ dotnet_separate_import_directive_groups = false # StyleCop Analyzer Rules - Disabled for project consistency dotnet_diagnostic.SA1101.severity = none +dotnet_diagnostic.SA1137.severity = none dotnet_diagnostic.SA1309.severity = none dotnet_diagnostic.SA1204.severity = none dotnet_diagnostic.SA1202.severity = none diff --git a/Jellyfin.Api/Auth/SyncPlayAccessPolicy/SyncPlayAccessHandler.cs b/Jellyfin.Api/Auth/SyncPlayAccessPolicy/SyncPlayAccessHandler.cs index 00ef5cd8..2ee31498 100644 --- a/Jellyfin.Api/Auth/SyncPlayAccessPolicy/SyncPlayAccessHandler.cs +++ b/Jellyfin.Api/Auth/SyncPlayAccessPolicy/SyncPlayAccessHandler.cs @@ -4,6 +4,7 @@ namespace Jellyfin.Api.Auth.SyncPlayAccessPolicy { + using System;
