Dearest community,

For testing purposes I have only one vhost configured with the purpose of hosting my plex server behind an apache reverse proxy over SSL. The config looks like this:

Sadly after I login my server cannot be found, see below the browser debug log. If anyone can help me figuring out what is going wrong I would be very grateful!

Any thoughts?

I made 2x days of troubleshooting everything on network and privileges and still not able to resolve my problem.
I was a user of Windows PMS and Synology PMS - everything where ok on this setups. Now i'm migrating to a Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS.
Had resolve all my privileges issues with the nfs drives (mapping the users on my NAS), i can access locally on the LAN the server http://:32400/web. I also able to access from outside network http://:32400/web and i'm also able to access my server from http://app.plex.tv/web/app#.
But i'm still not able to active the remote access on the server (he is not able to mapping the connection - Unknow IP address on all ports). All my clients (Android and iOS) are not able to connect this way!

Any help to solve this? I'm not able to browse 127.0.0.1:32400/web from my PMS server since it's a Ubuntu Server LTS
Greetings for any guidance.

I've tried every way possible to install Plex Server on Fedora 24 and have failed every time. I do not get any error while downloading or installing but I can not access it through web app and in terminal I do a "systemctl status plexmediaserver.service" it tells me that it has failed. Will someone please help?

I am running my PMS under Fedora 24. I have three 3TB drives on the Fedora machine that I use to store my media files that I would like to be able to access from my Windows 10 machine for the purpose of adding new media files to the server. I have installed samba and have successfully shared my home directory, but I can't seem to get the drives mounted in /mnt/Movies, /mnt/TV, etc. to show up under "Network" on the Windows machine. When I attempt to use "chcon -t samba_share_t /mnt/Movies" for example, I get "chcon: failed to change context of '/mnt/Movies' to 'system_u:object_r:samba_shre_t:s0': Operation not supported." Am going about this wrong? How do I share these drives with the Windows machine? Thanks in advance.

I have Plex Media Server for Linux installed. Using version 1.1.3.
Could not find a subforum for matching problems. So trying to air out my problems here.

I have just added my extensive music collection to Plex. I have previously used Amarok for organising and playing. Now as my music is on my server without speakers I trying out my Plex Media Server on it.

I have spent a lot of hours getting most of my music collection to match correctly in Plex. Though there are still some I have problem matching.
Plex is not as good finding covers as my Amarok which also uses last.fm

Last.fm seems a bit disorganised. Sometimes multiple entries for same artist, with different information. Some albums and artists have little to no information. Some even don't have cover art or release date. It does not seem to be a good site for matching. Isn't there any better, musicbrainz, allmusic, discogs, etc.?

All my id3 tags are in order. Nearly 95% of my music is in FLAC.

There is a lot of ambiguity at last.fm
Rolling Stones Undercover (Remastered)
Rolling Stones Undercover ((Remastered))
Rolling Stones Undercover [Remastered]
Rolling Stones Undercover (2009 Remastered)
Rolling Stones Undercover (2010 Remastered)
Rolling Stones Undercover (2009 Re-Mastered)
Rolling Stones Undercover (Remastered 2009)
Just to mention a "Few"...

AC/DC
Plex is unable to fetch ANY covers for my AC/DC albums even though I can find them on last.fm
Example: it did not fetch information and cover from this last.fm page http://www.last.fm/music/AC/DC/Live+at+River+Plate

It seems it has a match, but it is a poor match. I can fix the match, search for it, get a 100% match, but still no covers. The cover art on all albums are the same as one of the albums, "High Voltage".

My music naming and folder structure of AC/DC
/storage/Music/Artists/ACDC/2012 - Live at River Plate/CD1/01 - Rock N Roll Train.flac

Same also happens for Aerosmith
Manually fixing incorrect match does not always work. It cannot find a match. I ended up getting the cover art manually.

Guns N' Roses
Cannot match artist correctly
When I try manually it finds
gun's n roses
Guns N\' Roses
Guns N Roses [www.musikaki.blogspot.com]

I chose the second one here because I think that is the correct one from last.fm
I get not data on this artist in Plex. Even though there is lot written about the artist at
http://www.last.fm/music/Guns+N'+Roses

Meat Loaf
No match on album Meat Loaf Milestones 2013
http://www.last.fm/music/Meat+Loaf+Milestones

Dina
A norwegian album and artist. Plex are unable to match the artist. Searching last.fm does not show it, but it is there. Searching for a song uncovered the artist.

Hi!

I use plexmediaserver on 3 computer with ubuntu. So, to automatise update, i make a little repository on my dedicated server. I use plexupdate script (https://github.com/mrworf/plexupdate) with cron to verify and fetch new version. Then it was automaticly add without any modification (so, not usable on debian). Actualy, all my computer use trusty, so the repository have only the trusty entry (to not break other system if the package are not functional), but if you are sure that the plex package works for you, you can add it safely. And it only have the plex media server packet (no risk of overlapping update). Also, it contains only the public release of plex, not the plex pass.

Just add in source.list:
deb http://ubuntu.azuras.net/ trusty main

Or for Ubuntu:
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://ubuntu.azuras.net/ trusty main'
(Thanks oshunluvr)

then

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install plexmediaserver

I don't know well how the deb works, but i think if i don't modify packet, the inside signature can validate it.

Sorry for my poor english, i'm french...

With Version 1.1.3.2700 I can no longer access my plexserver from other PCs without authentication. It worked fine with version 1.0.3.2461 and before.

The plex server is running on a PC called "rakete". When accessing http://rakete:32400/web/index.html I get the following error message:

Sep 03, 2016 09:55:29.192 [0x7fde943ff700] DEBUG - Request: [192.168.1.55:44820 (Allowed Network)] GET /identity (8 live) GZIP Signed-in
Sep 03, 2016 09:55:29.192 [0x7fde943ff700] DEBUG - Request came in with unrecognized domain 'rakete' in header Host; treating as non-local

If I use the IP address in the URL instead of the hostname ( http://192.168.1.29:32400/web/index.html ) it works without authentification. Here are my domain/hostname settings

98# hostname --short
rakete

99# hostname --domain
fritz.box

100# hostname --fqdn
rakete.fritz.box

101# hostname --ip-address
192.168.1.29

What is going wrong?

Does anyone have PMS and Fail2Ban on their linux server? If show do you have any advice on configuring the Fail2Ban files?

I've already got an old ubuntu Plex server running on my network. Just wanting to try something different on a new server I installed Fedora 23 and Plex. I'm on a windows machine and can browse to the website of the server. http://10.X.X.X:32400/web/ and logged in. It still shows the IP of the new server in the address bar, but only shows the old server as an option. I go to devices and it doesn't show up there either. I am NOT a linux person at all, but want to learn and this is one of the reasons I'm trying this out. I followed the guides and didn't seem to have any problems. The webpage seems to be running and port 32400 open or I wouldn't be able to connect to it right?

Just really don't know where to go from here or what to try.

So I have CentOS 7 64-bit with all the recent updates installed but when I attempt to install Plex I get the following error:

warning: plexmediaserver-1.1.3.2700-6f64a8d.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 3adca79d: NOKEY

[root@mediaserver tmp]#

What's wrong? How can I fix?

There is a Synology release which works on rPI2 without a chroot.  However it's seems to becapable of playing media that the drobo/chroot version was unable to.  If you want to try it:

See the guides here: https://forums.plex.tv/topic/145717-i-have-pms-running-on-raspberry-pi-2/?p=887965

and here: http://www.htpcguides.com/install-plex-media-server-on-raspberry-pi-2/

There's also a conversion guide for moving from the chroot version to the native version here:

https://forums.plex.tv/topic/145717-i-have-pms-running-on-raspberry-pi-2/page-17#entry886641

UPDATED Image using the ARMv7 install: http://www.mediafire.com/download/dred4bd078wwe9n/MiniBianPlexArmv7.zip

And it was surprisingly easy!

I followed the bitbucket guide for installing the drobo PMS into a debootstrap chroot on raspbian.

As described here: 

https://bitbucket.org/inkubux/cubox-i/wiki/Plex%20Wheezy

As with the Mycloud install, I had to change LC_ALL=C in the chroot plexmediaserver script and install libexpat1 (apt-get install libexpat1) in the chroot.

I'm using a WD MyBook to store my media. So once I had PMS running I created media folders in the chroot and then mounted the mybook folders in the main host. So my main host /etc/fstab looks like this:

# Chroot bind mounts

The status icon in the upper right shows the number of people watching, but when it's clicked is completely blank. I recently upgraded from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. What can I do to fix the status screen?

Ubuntu Server 14.04.5 LTS
Plex Server 1.1.3.2700
Web - Chrome - 2.7.10

Log attached. Trying to play MKV should have been last thing I did before copying log.

I have no idea how to read these, could somebody point me in the right direction?

I'd love to be able to filter movies and tv shows by the languages of the audio and subtitle tracks available.

This would be especially nice for my little siblings who don't understand a word of english, so they could just browse the movies they can understand. 

Following the instructions here:

I installed plex on my debian box. However, when I browse to the website interface and click settings, it says "unavailable" in fact, it doesnt even prompt me through the normal setup procedure when I installed Plex Server on my mac (pick a friendly name, add a folder etc.) I found it quite strange. And I could not for the life of me figure it out. I attached my logs and here are my settings.

System

Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 8 \n \l
Plex Build: plexmediaserver_1.1.4.2757-24ffd60_amd64.deb

I just installed PMS on a fresh Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS install and I would like to run Plex under a different user then 'Plex'. Should I just edit the /lib/systemd/system/plexmediaserver.service file? And then of course chown '/var/lib/plexmediaserver/'. As I am new to systemd I have some concerns about this.

1. Will the plexmediaserver.service file not be overwritten when updating PMS? As then my run as user setting would be lost.
2. Should I only chown '/var/lib/plexmediaserver/'? Or are there more folders that need different ownership?
3. Is '/etc/default/plexmediaserver' not used at all and can it be ignored? As there are also configurable options in there.

Also, I noticed this error from systemd, should I be worried about that?
systemd[1]: [/lib/systemd/system/plexmediaserver.service:11] Invalid escape sequences in line, correcting: "/bin/sh -c 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/plexmediaserver /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\ Media\ Server'"

1. There is no folder called '/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Media Server' is that supposed to happen?
2. Also the folder '/usr/lib/plexmediaserver' is owned by root, is that OK?

Who can clear some of this up for me? :)

Cheers!

So I've just setup my first plex server and it seemed to go without a hitch.  I am running into one problem.  The plex server doesn't seem to like a couple of the sub directories I pointed it to for my "TV Shows".  It got pretty much everything, but there is a season of one show it refuses to "catalog" if that is the right term.  In the plex client for android, if I tell it to view by folder, I can navigate to the folder in question, and it pops up a message telling me that, "the directory appears to be empty" but it isn't.  It has the same MP4 files that all of the other peer directories contain.  

Anyone run into this?  I've tried forcing the server to refresh all the TV files and it still won't pick them up.  I've also tried renaming the directory and the files to be more descriptive and still it doesn't show.  

Thanks for any help!  Other than this one hitch, really like the product.

Not sure if posting in correct place.

Desktop is mint 17.3, with plex accessing all media stored within, this streams to a set-top box, an Android Smart Q7 thing...

Most folders/files appear when browsing (on the Android device) but selecting one gives the error: "directory appears to be empty."

But when I click the search button and enter the name of that exact movie/show, it appears in the search suggestion AND it plays without a problem. ALL the files play if I search for them using the magnifying glass button, even files that are not listed/catalogued in plex but should be there, but are invisible to browsing.
Everything will play, i just have to search for it instead of browsing. What is going on here? I believed everything is named properly.

I am having an issue on Plex Media Server 1.x, this was not happening on Plex Media Server 0.9.x.

When i try find some movie, plex show me result only from SOME libraries, not all.
Example: im trying to seach HARRY (harry potter movies), and plex show me only 2 movies from 2 libraries (3D Movies and 3D Filmy). but i have 8 movies in 2 libraries (Movies and Filmy) and 2 movies in 2 libraries (3D Movies and 3D Filmy)

I don't know when this began, but I just noticed today that I can no longer get to my PMS locally or remotely. No changes have been made for months. Last time this worked was yesterday. Confirmed by PlexPy. I can see in the plugin logs that PMS is still processing data. I just downloaded some TV episodes and they've been added to the library.

Server has a static IP with ports forwarded.
Server still has internet access.
I rebooted server and Google Fiber box.
Everything else on my network works. I can still get to other apps/ports hosted on server locally. I can still get to Samba shares.
Can ping server from another computer.

CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503
plexmediaserver-1.0.3.2461-35f0caa

Thoughts? Questions? I'm at a loss.
