Please describe your bug
I have had this instance of Jellyfin on a Rocky Linux KVM VM for roughly 8 months with no issues. I only turn my server on a few times per week. Turned it on last week and shut it down the same night with no changes/updates/etc. I powered it on tonight and the jellyfin systemd service starts for about 3-5 seconds, crashes, and then restarts infinitely without ever reaching a full startup.
The main error appears to be "System.FormatException: Dashes are in the wrong position for GUID parsing." However, I cannot seem to find much information about that anywhere. Any help would be appreciated, as I am truly at a loss considering there is nothing that should have changed to my knowledge. I have posted debug logs below.

Since all the clues were pointing towards database corruption, I dumped jellyfin.db and library.db to new files and everything started up just fine. No data loss as far as I can tell either. And now I have a cron job that will make regular backups of these files. Sorry for potentially wasting anyone's time, I'm all set!

What do you mean you dumped them to new files? How can that help?
This is similar to an issue I'm having upgrading.
