update from 8 to 9 and now no minidlna

[sinbrad]

ok guys, I'd been using version 8 of freenas and had no problems but since I wanted to install and try out Plex Media Server I took the plunge and upgraded to version 9. Now when I attempt to configure minidlna I am unable to select the correct media folder. My setup was using 2 seperate hard drives, 1 for videos and the other for music. I can select either one as a seperate media folder and minidlna scans and show the various files but I am unable to find my previous media directory which allowed both music and video to be scanned at once. Please help as this is killing me and I don't want to have to revert back to version 8

Did you reinstall the minidlna Plugin? 8.x apps don't work on 9.x.

When I upgraded to 9 I kept my settings from 8 and then uploaded them. This caused minidlna from 8 to cease working as it had no jail to speak of. Anyway, I factory restored 9 and installed the minidlna from that. This is where the problems began as I can't seem to be able to find the original media folder that I had created in version 8. Plex is working fine though and I can get my files through that but I still want to be able to fix minidlna?

Were you able to figure this out?

Yes, it was because the different minidlna's have different jail setups. I had my jail setup for the earlier minidlna which caused the error. Everything up and running now with both minidlna and plex running side by side. Although I do like the plex for it's extras etc
