easiest way is probably to use appdata backup plugin. It has special features for plex containers.
It will stop the container before backup to ensure a consistent state.
You can also try to repair your database. You will find tutorials for that. For example:
repair a corrupt plex database ## Step 1: Back Up Your Data Before making any changes, it's crucial to back up your existing Plex database. 1. **Stop the Plex Media Server**: - Make sure the Plex server is not running to avoid further corruption. 2. **Locate the Database**: - The database file is typically located in: - **Windows**: `C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases\` - **macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-in Support/Databases/` - **Linux**: `/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-in Support/Databases/` 3. **Backup the Database**: - Copy the entire **Databases** folder to a safe location. --- ## Step 2: Repair the Database ### Using SQLite Tools 1. **Install SQLite**: - Download and install SQLite tools if you don't have them. 2. **Open Command Line**: - Open your command-line interface (Terminal on macOS/Linux or Command Prompt on Windows). 3. **Navigate to Database Location**: - Use the `cd` command to change to the database directory. 4. **Run SQLite Commands**: - Open your Plex database file with SQLite: sqlite3 "Plex Media.db" - Execute the following commands to check and repair the database: ```sql PRAGMA integrity_check; ``` - If errors are reported, you can try: ```sql .dump ``` - This will dump the database contents. - Exit SQLite with: ```sql .exit ``` 5. **Create a New Database**: - Start a new SQLite database and import the dumped SQL: ```bash sqlite3 "NewPlexMedia.db" ``` - Then paste the output you got from the `.dump` command. --- ## Step 3: Replace the Old Database - Rename your existing database file (e.g., `Plex Media.db.bak`). - Rename the new database (`NewPlexMedia.db`) to `Plex Media.db`. - Ensure file permissions are set correctly. --- ## Step 4: Restart Plex Server - Start the Plex Media Server again and check if the issues are resolved.

i had that problem too. I think to have logout from connect and log back.
