Plex Media Server


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I am new to Unraid using version 6.9.2.

I am trying to set up Plex Media server to my server using the Plex Media Server docker container from Plex, I am able to pull the container and get into the WebUI, but it just skips the Server set up process and looks like it goes directly to the web app.

 

I do have a server set up already but that computer has now turned into my Unraid server and I want to create a new one for this, I still have access to get to the OS that has the server that I was orignially using.

 

Someone please help me as I have spent hours on this and it is super frustrating. 

 

This is the log for Plex Media Server.

A Plex Claim is in there, but I have removed for this reply.

No I have attached a screenshot of what it looks like, there are no server settings on the left hand side.

 

When initially starting the docker up, after signing in should I be able to create a server?

It does not even let me create one.

 

How would I go about getting Plex Media Server on the Unraid server, if I click this wont it just download onto the computer that I am using and not the Unraid computer?
