Server no longer shows Composer Sort and Artist Sort
Suddenly Minim Server no longer shows Composer Sort and Artist Sort folders in upnp, although my profile is unchanged. Here is my profile:
---
contentDir = /media/haydn/audio2
indexTags = ArtistSort, Artist, Date, Genre, All Artists, ComposerSort, Composer, Conductor, Orchestra
tagFormat = Artist.displayFormat={$artist$orchestra$conductor}
tagOptions = Album.sortTags={Album, Artist}, ComposerSort.reverseName.display, ArtistSort.reverseName.display
tagValue = Artist.value.sort={ArtistSort}, Composer.value.sort={ComposerSort}, Composer.default={ComposerSort.custom}, Genre.replace={Composer}

---
What can I do to re-apply the profile and recover these "sort" folders?

RE: Server no longer shows Composer Sort and Artist Sort
Do you have a MinimServer full or trial license activated? Without this, MinimServer will display only Artist, Date, Genre, All Artists and Composer in the index.

If you have a full or trial license activated, do the following:

1) Open the MinimServer configuration web page
2) Select the Profiles tab
3) Under this tab, make sure the Select tab is active
4) Select the profile name you want and click the Select Profile button

Quote:Your MinimServer license type is Full, with no expiry date.
Your MinimStreamer license expires on April 26, 2023 2:04:39 PM MST.
Your license includes updates until April 26, 2023 2:04:39 PM MST.
You are using 1 of 5 license activations (click here for details)

I have created a new profile 'main' from 'default'.
Then got a "minimwatch crash" message box. I've attached the log.

Followup:

After activating the new 'main' profile and after the minimwatch crash, minim server started (green tray icon) and composer sort and artist sort re-appeared).

The ongoing problem appears to be that minimserver frequently appears to "forget" the full license and revert to the 'trial' license. The machine I'm running on is a Proxmox VM (KVM) running xubuntu 16.04, 16GB RAM. The music library itself lives on the Proxmox server as a ZFS dataset mounted on the VM via CIFS 3.0. Library contains 100364 audio files in 6305 folders.

Would minimserver run on an LXC, rather than the KVM VM? I've been distributing some 'dedicated, continuously-running' apps in this manner in the last few years for security and ease-of-maintenance.

See this section for details of how to do this.
