This is my docker-compose file if you need this information:

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
    container_name: jellyfin
    user: 1000:1000
    network_mode: 'bridge'
    ports:
      - 8096:8096
    volumes:
      - /home/username/jellyfin/cache:/cache
      - /home/username/jellyfin/config:/config
      - /home/username/jellyfin/media:/media:ro
    restart: 'unless-stopped'

I'm running it using docker-compse up

What are the ownership and permissions on those directories?

thank you very much for the tip, I used chat gpt and it helped me to guarantee the right permissions, I can now connect to the web ui but I'm not getting "We're unable to connect to the selected server right now. Please ensure it is running and try again."
