Total Noob Rookie Mistake Lost GUI Access

[Gedgehead]

Hi all ,

This is my first attempt at having my own server, an HP Proliant, but have borked access to my system, so please be gentle.
I'm using Scale and tried to play with Jellyfin but was having trouble locating my media and was changing some privileges to use the files.
Anyway I no can longer use the Web GUI to access my files as it no longer shows up. I have a backup of my config file but as I can't use the GUI I'm stumped.
Do I have to plug the server into a keyboard and monitor again to restore that backup?

Well, yes. If you can't get remote access, you need local access.

Thanks.
I was panicking after taking a few days transfering files from a couple of portable drives.
