So I had plex all installed and everything was working fine, but I didn't like my setup in Ubuntu 14.04 because I had to manually click on my HDD icons for the drives to mount. I wanted the drives to all mount at startup, so I needed to play with the setting in fstab. I was having some trouble at first in fstab because of spaces in the volume labels of my HDD, so I tried redirecting some libraries in plex to make it mesh with the changes I was making in fstab...
At first this all went as I would've expected... I made a change in fstab, which then changed the mount point of the hdd, so plex could no longer find those movie files because the path had been changed... I changed fstab back to the way it was before, and that directory would once again become available on plex...
I continued to try and get my fstab corrected and edited it several times, but at one point I checked in on plex, and I could not access http://localhost:32400/web at all! How could making changes in fstab completely crash the server?
