I am and have been having this problem for a long time - My server on the local network shows as "Nearby". It changed sometime in the last year and i am not sure why. Here is a log of plex. port 32400 shows up as red on deployed host ports. Also there are some errors at bottom of log that are suspicious - Detected another IPv4 mDNS stack running on this host. I have seen references in this thread but don't understand or see any answers directly to what my problem is. Here is my docker run command - root@localhost:# /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker create --name="PlexMediaServer" --net="host" -e TZ="America/Anchorage" -e HOST_OS="unRAID" -e "TCP_PORT_32400"="32400" -e "PUID"="99" -e "PGID"="100" -e "VERSION"="plexpass" -v "/mnt/user/appdata/PlexMediaServer":"/config":rw -v "/mnt/user/":"/media":rw linuxserver/plex 266da49f7f8008235f48962f809a7712b920de3e957f6a29d5daf658fdcd7220 and here is my log ErrorWarningSystemArrayLogin [s6-init] making user provided files available at /var/run/s6/etc...exited 0.[s6-init] ensuring user provided files have correct perms...exited 0.[fix-attrs.d] applying ownership & permissions fixes...[fix-attrs.d] done.[cont-init.d] executing container initialization scripts...[cont-init.d] 10-adduser: executing...-------------------------------------_ _ _| |___| (_) ___| / __| | |/ _ \| \__ \ | | (_) ||_|___/ |_|\___/|_|Brought to you by linuxserver.ioWe gratefully accept donations at:https://www.linuxserver.io/donations/-------------------------------------GID/UID-------------------------------------User uid: 99User gid: 100-------------------------------------[cont-init.d] 10-adduser: exited 0.[cont-init.d] 30-dbus: executing...[cont-init.d] 30-dbus: exited 0.[cont-init.d] 40-chown-files: executing...[cont-init.d] 40-chown-files: exited 0.[cont-init.d] 50-plex-update: executing...No update required[cont-init.d] 50-plex-update: exited 0.[cont-init.d] done.[services.d] starting servicesStarting Plex Media Server.Starting dbus-daemon[services.d] done.dbus[271]: [system] org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Failed to set fd limit to 65536: Operation not permittedStarting Avahi daemonFound user 'avahi' (UID 106) and group 'avahi' (GID 107).Successfully dropped root privileges.avahi-daemon 0.6.32-rc starting up.No service file found in /etc/avahi/services.*** WARNING: Detected another IPv4 mDNS stack running on this host.

Thanks, if i press the red x after it starts cycle 2 of pre-read verification will it still show as precleared? i am at 94% on step 5 - post read. Edit - answer to own question - pressed red once cycle 2 started - drive still shows as precleared - mounted it and it appears to b working fine. Harro - Thanks for the reply. It was very helpful.

Is there a way to end after a cycle when you have told it to do 2 cycles, i am about 60 hours into a 8tb preclear and want to reboot before i wait another 65 hours. Also should i have skipped any of the prereads etc to make it faster?

Good Morning, and Thanks Squid!

Question - can i have 2 dockers of sonarr running simultaneously and have 1 docker container of sabnzbd communicating with both to do the downloading? The reason is - i would like to have all my foreign tv shows permitted to download from foreign language newsgroups on one Container and on the other the english only. As far as i know docker doesn't allow to classify specific shows to look for foreign and the remainder to be english. Thanks in advance.

I am having problems with plex media server (the server is not connecting and i don't have a server tab, also the port 32400 shows up red in the deployed hosts when i click edit) I have tried host and bridge mode. I have had previous installs of dockers of plex and switched to linuxserver a while ago. I am thinking of clean installing plex media server, but from what i read i will have to delete the docker image, i also have the following dockers working well (deluge, nzget,sabnzbd,sonarr and sickrage)- Would deleting the docker.img mess all that up? I am attaching my log from the docker if anyone wants to have a look and advise me. Thanks in advance. log_2.txt

Is this the faq? https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=37168.0 Just curious.

I am in the process of trying to switch from sickrage to sonarr, and because i am having problems with sonarr and nzbget, it looks like i am switching to sonarr with sabnzbd. Question is: why would sonarr be changing permissions on my files that it handles. as far as i can tell i am unable to move files via my windows box and network share. I shut rebooted both machines (windows that normally has full access and my unraid 6.21) and told all dockers not to autostart - it will not let me move the files anymore. So i am running docker safe new permissions which looks like it is going to take a long time. Pretty sure as soon as sonarr process or handles a file it will do it again. Any ideas? Edit - I haven't enabled the set permissions under media management. Should i do that to have it fix it after it changes the permissions? Edit again - Looks like setting permissions might be working.

edit - update - i have attached plex log. I think i broke my plex media server. I signed out of it from the web gui when i was troubleshooting why it wasn't been seen by the rest of the world.(pretty sure that the port forwarding thing is fixed now though). Now i have no server tab in the web gui, and it says something about not having a plex token in the log file. I tried updating the server and restarting it, but that didn't seem to help, is there a way to reinstall the server without losing everything? Sorry i don't have log file as i am away from the computer or a while. I can see one friends library that shared with me and that is it. I will post the log file when i can get back to the machine. Should i delete the old server and reinstall? I have a pretty big library and it will be a while , long while, before its all back up to date. log.txt

Thanks for clarifying that i was a little confused, probably reading too much instead of just using community applications.

Which preclear script and plugin should i be using for 6.2 final that was just released?

Hi, i just installed MineOS and got the 1.9.4 server up and running. Can someone help me update to 1.10.2? Or is it not possible? Thanks!

Ok, i thought you meant when you see the update is available from within plex, but not on the docker, in that case i believe restart will update your version. When you have an update available via the docker itself seems to happen a lot less, but i just switched to linuxserver from limetech, so i don't know if its more often. Also pretty new myself to this. Enjoy your plex.

As far as i know you just restart the docker and it will update.

Stupid, but easy questions with a few comments in case someone else is trying to do same thing. If someone has the time and is willing to answer.. I switched from limetech today, following these instructions http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=41609.msg394769#msg394769 FYI, i thought it wasn't working, because webui wouldnt load, but after a few minutes it worked - so wait before you give up. My version is Version 0.9.16.6 - this is the latest plexpass version, correct? I had to rename the container to PlexMediaServer instead of plex, or at least i believe i had to to get it to work. Is that normal? Also it took me a while to find that i had to click advanced view to change the version to plexpass. From what i can tell that is how it should be set to "plexpass"? Even though i removed all the containers and images via the docker page on unraid, it consistently says that about 10 already existed on the pull. Is that normal? Is there a way to prompt plex to fix the unmatched movies and tv shows. When i used to run plex on windows, mapped to my unraid server i had many more matches. I go through them one a time and a lot of them just need a refresh. If i delete older folders of movies, because i have a better version or change a folder name, will plex handle this gracefully? I want to go through and change a bunch of them that are in the wrong folder. Thanks for any and all answers, pardon my lack of knowledge (should i be asking these last in the plex forums instead?)

Thanks Brit for the quick reply, i am gonna keep those 2 cycles going and then create the array. I don't even want to put data i cant afford to lose on this yet as i am using harvested drives from seagate 8tb.

I am building a new test unraid server with 6.2 beta 21 - fresh install. I have 4 8tb seagate harvested drives. I found the beta preclear plugin and i am running it on the drives 2 cycles per drive. It appears to be working. But, i am reading a few comments saying preclear isn't necessary anymore. I am assuming that 6.2 beta formats the drive without bringing the array down and doesn't actually predict reliability as well as preclear? By the way, thanks for providing the beta plugin and all of your time that went into it.

I have a few questions and a suggestion. 1. Super newb question, but should i just use the default and press preclear. Do i need to do the 63 or 64 sector thing. Suggestion is to specify specifically what settings should be done(perhaps in the first post, i scanned the entire thread and didn't see it). My assumption is to only change skip pre-read to yes and cycles to 3, leave the rest of settings the same. Then run it? 2. Can i just delete the old preclear script and rename the preclear_bjp.sh to preclear_disk.sh in the install folder using //tower/flash/ from a windows machine? Do i need to reboot again to get it to recognize? It recognizes the original script now? Thanks.

Brit, thanks for your help - This is what ended up working for me specifically. Add a windows credential - internet address: Tower username: computername\username password:password I got hung up just putting the username in without the computer name first, i found the format by looking at a few different shares. I'm quickly realizing what a great and knowledgeable person you are Brit. Thanks very much!

I am quite new here, but am wondering how i solve this problem, I have an email address as a user name on a couple of windows 8.1 machines on my network - I can't create a user in unraid beta 6-12 to set up a share that is secure. Am i missing something or can anyone suggest a solution for this while still using that f'd up windows username?
