✅ PowerShell Script Fixed!

Problem

The original Fix-JellyfinPaths.ps1 had PowerShell syntax errors:

Line 179: XPath expression with variable interpolation caused parsing issues
Line 213: String terminator problem with nested quotes

Solution

Created a new, corrected script: FixJellyfinPaths.ps1 (no hyphen)

What Was Fixed

1. XPath Query Issue

Before (broken):

$element = $xml.SelectSingleNode("//*[text()='$($path.CurrentValue)']")

After (fixed):

$element = $null
$xml.SelectNodes("//*") | ForEach-Object {
    if ($_.InnerText -eq $path.CurrentValue) {
        $element = $_
    }
}

This avoids XPath quote escaping issues by using direct comparison instead.

2. String Interpolation Issue

Before (broken):

Write-Host "3. If issues persist, review backups in: $ConfigPath" -ForegroundColor White

After (fixed):

$configInfo = "3. If issues persist, review backups in: $ConfigPath"
Write-Host $configInfo -ForegroundColor White

Separated the string building from the Write-Host call to avoid parsing ambiguity.

How to Use

Check for issues (dry run):

.\FixJellyfinPaths.ps1 -DryRun

Apply fixes:

.\FixJellyfinPaths.ps1

Apply without confirmation:

.\FixJellyfinPaths.ps1 -Force

Custom paths:

.\FixJellyfinPaths.ps1 -ConfigPath "D:\Jellyfin\config" -DataPath "D:\Jellyfin\data"

What It Does

Scans these config files:
- system.xml
- encoding.xml
- database.xml
Finds any paths starting with:
- /var/
- /usr/
- /etc/
Fixes them by:
- Clearing MetadataPath and TranscodingTempPath (uses defaults)
- Converting other Linux paths to Windows equivalents
Creates backups before making any changes

Testing

Script tested and verified to parse correctly:

✓ No PowerShell syntax errors
✓ Handles non-existent paths gracefully
✓ Dry-run mode works correctly

Files Updated

✅ FixJellyfinPaths.ps1 - New corrected script
✅ LINUX_PATH_ISSUE_SUMMARY.md - Updated to reference new script name
✅ FIX_SYSTEM_XML_PATHS.md - Updated to reference new script name
❌ Fix-JellyfinPaths.ps1 - Old broken script (can be deleted)

Next Steps

Run the script with -DryRun to see what would be changed
If it looks correct, run without -DryRun to apply fixes
Restart Jellyfin
Check logs to verify paths are now correct
