Hi I took a look at the plex log files and it could look like something fails, but I don't have the time now to look any deeper because i'm going on vacation I had hoped i could get it working before I left but unfortunately no. I will give it a new try when I get back home, I just want thank all of you who tried to help, thank you!!! Best regards

I will take a look

Hi I got the syslog by removing the flash drive and connecting it to my windowns PC and just copyed the file over, no I can't log in locally to the server becaus it is non responsive when plex "kills" it. I have to hold the power button down until the server powers down. Br Michael

Hi TheWombat: If Plex is dying then suggest reviewing the Plex Media Server and Plex Media Scanner logs as well as the UnRaid Syslog. The Plex Media Server and Plex Media Scanner logs will be in a directory similar to: \\tower\cache\applications\Plex\library\Application Support\Plex Media Server\Logs depending on how you've set things up TheWombat I have not included the 2 plex log files you have requested, they are very big so I have to cut them down in size, do you want the last half of the log log files ? hackztor: Two things that gave me issues with Plex and would randomly stop it were 1. Make sure you setup a share on the cache drive. I call mine data and make sure Use Cache disk is set to only. If you do not do this, it will try to move files to the parity. 2. Had same kind of issues with Cache Directories plugin. It works now, but had issues before with it. I have been using plex and unraid without any crashes. I did try to use a CACHE drive when I was on 5.0.16c with the same result as I see now. henris: The provided syslog is not containing the crash information but the next clean boot. Syslog is reset on every boot so you should get the syslog AFTER the Plex crash and BEFORE you restart the system. This is at least how I saw it, since the log duration was only a few minutes. With a quick glance I did not see any problems in the base system. It is the syslog after the crash and before the restart, I think the problem is the connection is lost to unraid when the problem accurres, I loose Telnet connection and I can't even log in to unraid if I use try to directly connect a monitor and keybord I just see the log in screen

Hi I started to rename my pluging folder so "simple features" would not be loaded, after Unraid was booted I logged into the PLEX server and started to update my TVseries, and after 5 minutes collecting meta-data plex died. I have attached my syslog Br Michael syslog.txt

Hi Here are my answers to you quastions: mr-hexen: post syslog after error if you can. I will post the syslog when I get home from work. MisterWolfe: Do you have the gcc unmenu package installed? Plex didn't work for me when this package was installed. I don't have unmenu installed but I do have simple features installed! henris: If you did, it must be either some incompatibility with other plugins or something else wrong with your system. Try disabling other plugins and see if it helps. Please also provide syslog (preferably full). I will disable simple features and post my syslog when I get home sureguy: Is it possible that you have a bad media file that plex cannot extract info (like thumbnails) from and is crashing the app? I don't think so, at the moment I'm using Mediaportal (main PC) and XBMC (secondary PC) without any problem. Br Michael

Hi I used this from the plex forum. Copy plexupdater to /boot/config/plugins install with installplg /boot/config/plugins/plexUpdater.plg OR reboot server example setup: Library Directory: /mnt/cache/apps/Plex OR /mnt/user/disk1/apps/Plex Temp Directory: /mnt/cache/apps/Plex/Temp OR /mnt/user/disk1/apps/Plex/Temp I did reboot the server and I used disk12 instead of disk1 from the examble. I should proberly mention that if I only import my dvd collection only 20 movies or so I don't have any problems. Br Michael

Hi I installed Plex when i was on 5.016c, the first time I start plex and starts to build the plex db with metadata for my movies and tv series it runs for maybe 2 hours before unraid dies (gets non responsive). Then after i manually power down the server and starts it again then plex import will only run for a few minutes. I have upgraded to the new 5.0 and I still see this problem, I can't see anything in the syslog the last entry is me logging in to the plex server, then I start to import meta data to my tv series (large collection) and with in a few minutes is loose connection to unraid I can't even log into the server when I'm directly connected to it.
