Mustard_Tiger Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Hi Guys After a reboot I got this error, I think it may have something to do with plex. ERRORS FOUND Invalid folder appdata contained within /mnt Invalid folder cache contained within /mnt I changed the app data config path - /mnt/appdata/Plex-Media-Server to /mnt/cache/appdata/Plex-Media-Server But I have since changed it back as it wipes all my plex settings after a reboot 😑 See logs attached Many thanks starscream-diagnostics-20220815-1019.zip Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 You do not have a cache pool named "appdata". This means that the meta-data which plex saves will be stored in RAM and lost when you reboot (ie: Invalid folder appdata within /mnt) Changing it to /mnt/cache results in the exact same thing since you do not have a cache pool named "cache" Rather than typing in the paths, you should be clicking and then using the file browser to select the appropriate path (either /mnt/cache_nvme or /mnt/cache_ssd) Should be noted that when installing Plex via apps, your path would have been correct (/mnt/user/appdata), and then via the share settings for Appdata you would dictate which cache drive that share uses Quote Link to comment
Mustard_Tiger Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 Thank you for your help I was following a guide from IBRACORP who suggested the change however some comments below stated that I would run into this problem. https://youtu.be/S4fcR4s15OI Am I ok to ignore the errors found?

Mustard_Tiger Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 I have changed my plex appdata to (/mnt/user/appdata) as suggested and my settings were intact after a reboot 👍 The two error are now gone from Fix Common Problems Cheers Quote Link to comment
