I am on MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 and use Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.3 - 1597753178. I had the same issue as described by many users since on latest Catalina release: library (which is located on external USB drive) looks empty, scanning shows 0 files.
I gave full disk access to perl, bash, sh and smbd as described in quote below. After that, I restart LMS and I can scan my library and read files, all good. The problem is that after rebooting the mac, LMS seems to lose full disk access again: impossible to read files... In the security pane, the full disk access seems to be still there... I have to delete perl,bash, sh and smbd full disk access there and put it back, then it works... until next reboot. Any ideas?
