You must be overriding your PATH variable somewhere

[jcastro]

I've tried to set PATH variable to
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpegin-ffmpeg
I've also tried to remove the variable on Portainer but I'm getting same results.

Am I supposed to set a variable or just remove the variable?

[NickM-27]

We aren't using jellyfin ffmpeg anymore so that won't work. Ideally the path isn't overridden and it is accepted as is. #3223 mentions how this was done.

[jcastro]

Thanks!
