October 1, 20241 yr Hello all, Been dealing with an issue with my media server crashing sporadically. I'm on 7b2 but the issue is more recent, within the last couple weeks, I've experienced the server just flat out crashing. I can still ping it, but no web gui/ssh/etc. I've tried swapping RAM, switching the USB to a different port, I've tried running it without any VMs/Containers running, modified script settings to prevent overloading the system, and maybe some other stuff I'm not thinking of. I have attached the logs and have the syslog writing to USB so hopefully it's more verbose? I tried my hand at reviewing the logs but to my untrained eye, nothing really stood out. (I know it's littered with UPS alerts, for whatever reason my UPS always loses connection and then immediately regains it) Any help would be highly appreciated. Wife is tired of Plex being down 😂 hyperion-diagnostics-20241001-1232.zip
