Hi Everyone
I keep getting this error with the mini DLNA Server.
Does my video folder have a content size limit? As the server goes offline with so many videos in the video folder.
If I delete a couple of videos them restart the service the server comes back online.
How do I fix it?
Thanks 
Hi,
do you have any output on journalctl -u minidlna.
As well pls avoid doing screen prints. If possible, copy the output from your SSH terminal.
journalctl -u minidlna Output

Well it seems you have a full disk
Jun 20 23:54:40 DietPi minidlnad[4277]: sql.c:41: error: SQL ERROR 13 [database or disk is full]
this would explain why deleting stuff will get your server back online.
Once you stuck again, you could verify disk space usage using df -h
Can I not move the Pictures, Movies & Music directories to the 2TB hard drive, I have connected to the Pi?
Thanks
you could transfer the entire diretory /mnt/dietpi_userdata/ to the external HDD using dietpi-drive_manager
I will give transfering the directory over a go.
Thanks
It Worked. Thanks Joulinar
thx for feedback
Somehow you are missing the log directory
mkdir -p /var/log/minidlna
chown minidlna:dietpi /var/log/minidlna
chmod 755 /var/log/minidlna
systemctl restart minidlna.service
