Hi there,

i tried to change some settings in the plexmediaserver config file in /etc/default/

where the mediaserver should store the transcodes

PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_TMPDIR=/home/encrytped/.plex/tmp

uncomment to set it to something else

PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR="/home/encrytped/.plex/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support"

saved it. moved the directory from /var/lib/ to its new destination /home/encrytped/.plex/.

restarted plex and bam.. every time the same error..:

Jan 15 19:53:32 localhost sh[8422]: /bin/mkdir: das Verzeichnis „/var/lib/plexmediaserver“ kann nicht angelegt werden: Keine Berechtigung (in english: cant creare directory /var/lib/plexmediaserver)
Jan 15 19:53:32 localhost systemd[1]: plexmediaserver.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
Jan 15 19:53:32 localhost systemd[1]: Failed to start Plex Media Server for Linux.

it seems to me that plex is ignoring my changed settings.

so please help me :)
