jellyfin web missing on ubuntu 20.04

[tom8zds]

Describe the bug
jellyfin can't boot

System:

• OS: ubuntu 20
• Jellyfin Version: 10.6.0

Logs
The server is expected to host the web client, but the provided content directory is either invalid or empty: /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin-web. If you do not want to host the web client with the server, you may set the '--nowebclient' command line flag, or set'hostwebclient=false' in your config settings.

Here's an update.
I copied jellyfin-web directory from my weekly backup to /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin.
Restarting the services was successful however, the web shows a black blank page.

I have the same issue as well.

I had the same problem. My web was installed to /usr/share/jellyfin/web/. I fixed it by running sudo mkdir /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin-web. Then I ran sudo cp -a /usr/share/jellyfin/web/. /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin-web to copy the files.
It seems to be working fine now.

@r417 thanks for the tip, ln -s /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ /usr/lib/jellyfin/bin/jellyfin-web seems to work.

This is still an issue with the latest version and debian packages.

Can also verify that this is still an issue on fresh installs
