Custom MinimServer Installation Not Starting

[Jeeves]

Hi Simon and Frodo,

@Frodo - My apology for the delay in responding. I was not able to get the Docker working properly, so I am going to try Simon's instructions again this weekend. I didn't save the Docker after my first attempt, and deleted it before rebooting. It would be great to have this working, and I will definitely report back if I am successful. I have limited experience with Docker images, so it will be a fun learning experience.

However, I am now able to use the current version just fine running from my USB drive (Thanks to Simon's discovery of unRAID's loopback issue). I saw in the unRAID forum that in unRAID v6.4 this issue will be resolved.

The only "issue" that I am experiencing is that upon reboot, MinimServer is unable to detect my media store - even though the correct path is configured in the minimserver.config file. When I visit MinimServer's Status page in my web browser, it displays the correct path, and after I re-enter the path in the Content Directory field, MinimServer starts right up. I am not certain why this may happen as this doesn't occur with MinimServer 8.1. Other than this - v8.4 runs great.

@Simon - If you ever decide to expand viable platforms to include unRAID, I (and I'm certain others in the unRAID community) would be very happy to help out if desired. I can only imagine the time you have invested in development and support. I know many are grateful for your efforts.
