Libraries Added, no Content After Scanning

Server Version#:1.18.4.2171
Player Version#: Web 4.12.3

Background: Broke the permissions on my Plex server two years ago & finally found time today to rebuild it. Running in an Ubuntu 19.10 LXC. Created a new user (called plexmedia) and moved the entire library into /home/plexmedia/libraries. Recursively changed ownership of the entire directory tree to plexmedia:plexmedia. Added user plex to the plexmedia group. I can su to plex and view files in /home/plexmedia.

plex@plex:/home/plexmedia/libraries$ ls -l television/

drwxr-xr-x 3 plexmedia plexmedia 3 Nov 18  2017 'ACL Presents Americana Music Festival (2017)'

drwxr-xr-x 3 plexmedia plexmedia 3 Sep 17  2017 'The Vietnam War (2017)'

Logged in to the web UI, added the folders to the library. I see folders & files in the picker as expected:
plex-add-folder

But after hitting ‘scan’ there is still nothing in the UI.

Did you follow the naming convention for TV shows? See here https://support.plex.tv/articles/naming-and-organizing-your-tv-show-files/
