[PhAzE] Plugins for Unraid 5/6

[TapRackPull]

Is anybody having an issue starting Sickrage plug-in? I tried uninstalling rebooting and reinstalling. I also tried changing different ports. Latest plug-in and latest unraid. From fresh install.

Kitwolf, did you ever get past this, because it sounds like my problem as well.

Nope TapRackPull, I'm unsure what's causing it. And still cannot get past it. This is the only PhAzE plugin I have this issue with too. Kinda relieved it's not just me.

[PhAzE]

I can have a look at sick rage tomorrow I think. See why it's not starting

Thank you Phaze. For me it isn't SickRage (I don't use it), it is CouchPotato, SickBeard, Sab, and Transmission. None of them will start.

I am having the same problem. I ran into a problem with one of my plugins where it would not start. Got the no pid created. I ran the new permissions and still did not work. Now not only do I get No PID created but I get "Dependencies not working" on several of them in the different plugins. See attached photo. I deleted the plugins and reinstalled and same issue. Any suggestions.

[PhAzE]

For that, try deleting the PhAzE-Common folder, them reinstall the plugin or reboot the server.

 

It's at /mnt/cache/PhAzE-Common

After following these instructions, I now have Sab, Sick and Transmission working again, but am still getting the start failed, no PID created error for Couchpotato.

First, back up the config folder, delete the original one and then see if it starts.

 

Alternatively, try to manually set the config folder location in the plugin settings.

[TapRackPull]

PhAZe, deleting the config folder got CP up and running. What from the original config is should be moved over to restore the database and previous settings? I appreciate your help. I have been using your plugins since you started them and this is the first issue I have had.

 

I opted to just reenter all my data. it was easy and this way I'm not importing the problem back in. Thanks for your help

I find the cp database can easily get corrupted and even a clean shutdown might break it. Good choice in starting fresh. Sucks about losing your wanted list though.

Hiya

 

Yesterday the Plex plugin flagged that there was a new version of the server so after making sure there wasn't a new plugin version I allowed it to upgrade the server. The server was upgraded to 1.1.3.2700-6f64a8d.

 

All the settings have remained the same.

 

I am now greeted via webgui with a plexpass login which I can't get passed? My mobile devices get "unauthorized" when i try to select my server?

 

Is anyone else getting this? Any suggestions?

 

Jim

[PhAzE]

Upgrade worked normally for me. Are you using the default branch or plexpass branch in the plugin settings?

[jim80z]

The setting is set to standard. It wasn't changed.

[jim80z]

Sorry should have asked in the previous post....Is there a way of having the plugin force a clean reinstall of the latest plex?

[PhAzE]

Delete the install directory and the library/config directory. Then start the plugin.

[jim80z]

Just for completeness I have the following settings

 

Install directory: /mnt/cache/.Apps/Plexmediaserver

Config / Library directory: /mnt/cache/.Apps/Plexmediaserver/config

Transcode directory: /mnt/cache/.Apps/Plexmediaserver/Transcode

No customs external port

Branch: Standard

Server is run as nobody

the rest isn't really relevant

 

I deleted single files in /mnt/cache/.Apps/Plexmediaserver but left config and Resources alone. Restarted Plex and it reinstalled. Same issue exists.

 

I left the config directory because I wasn't sure where the library meta data lived and didn't want to lose any of it. Is the meta data in Resources or Config?

 

 

[PhAzE]

Yes it is saved in the config folder but that's also where the db is saved that is likely causing your problem. Perhaps back that folder up somewhere, then delete the original and see if it starts fresh first.

[jim80z]

Moved config to config_old, deleted install files and reinstalled/started. Same problem. Will go find a backup of the the entire .Apps/plexmediaserver folder and recover it and see if I can get back to where I was.

 

BTW PhAzE thanks for the prompt helpful replies!

[PhAzE]

Also delete the Plex plugin folder

 

/boot/config/plugins/Plexmediaserver

[jim80z]

OK removed everything. Then did a search for anything remotely called plex and removed that.= (including /boot/config/plugins/Plexmediaserver).

 

Reinstalled the plugin. Put my old settings in and flicked yes on enable plex server. Hit Apply. Waited for everything to be installed and online.

 

Clicked on WebUI button.

 

- asks me to login to plex. Use my account (note Im not a paid member of plexpass) and login

- Comes up with Plex Pass banner advertising the experience and features.....close that

- behind it the main screen has Get your Plex Media Server some words then download PMS or Download PMS for NAS Platforms

- Top left hand corner have a "Looking for Servers" with a cycling wait symbol....some words and a "where is my server?" hyperlink.

- top right has a "go premium button", settings (which takes you general player settings, cast/players button and user login pulldown

- never finds the server. The URL is correct in that it is the local server.

 

Where are the server setup elements? Why does it assume there isn't a server? What have I missed?

 

 

 

[jim80z]

All,

 

I managed to work this out. For whatever reason the latest version(s) might not play nice with subnets? Even though my unraid server is on the same subnet (I only have one subnet) as my desktop Plex didn't see it that way. The server expected that the web client would be invoked on the local host i.e. on the actual unraid server via a web browser (localhost:32400/web). To over come this you have to:

 

Enable sshd (if you have this working and you can ssh to the unraid server, skip this)

- This bit is interesting to me as unraid 6.1.9 has ssh as a part of its base install. However I could not ssh to the unraid server from my workstation ... connection refused.

          - logging into the unraid server and running "/etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start" would give me a bunch of errors re various keyfiles in "/etc/ssh" wouldn't load due to being the wrong format etc

          - looking at the files in "/etc/ssh" I found that the file names are there but they are empty i.e. blank, no keys

          - so I run "ssh-keygen -A" to generate the keys in the files and check them to find the keys are now present i.e. the files are not empty anymore

          - BUT....then when I invoke "/etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start" you end up with the same errors i.e. files are empty....so I check the files and indeed find them empty again

          - what is happening is when you run "/etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start" it copies the keyfiles from "/boot/config/ssh" (which are blank) to ""/etc/ssh"

          - so what you have to do is run "ssh-keygen -A"  then copy the newly generated keyfiles in "/etc/ssh" to "/boot/config/ssh". Now it works at boot or when you manually run "/etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start"

- there are plugins (e.g. https://github.com/docgyver/unraid-v6-plugins) but Im not sure why you would need them since ssh is built into the unraid distribution (just needs a fix @limetech)

- sorry for this extra info but thought Id put it here in case anyone gets stuck like I did as the info on how to setup SSH in 6.1.9 native wasn't readily available? or at least I couldn't find it.

 

Setup an SSH tunnel from your machine to the unraid server

- Now that you have ssh working, check out the following support do https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200288666-Opening-Plex-Web-App three quarters of the way down i.e. "On a Different Network" section

- to make it easy ill repeat here, open a command prompt on your desktop (mine is a mac) and execute "ssh ip.address.of.server -L 8888:localhost:32400"  .....where ip.address.of.server is the IP number of your unraid server.......enter your root password of the unraid server when prompted. Your ssh tunnel is now established

- then open your browser and punch in "http://localhost:8888/web"

- this should now take you to the familiar setup web app for plex.

- Once I finished the initial Plex setup, I could access the Plex server from anywhere on my subnet.

 

Not sure why the upgrade failed me and why Plex couldn't see I was on the same subnet but the above is how I got through it.

 

Hope it helps someone.

 

Jim

Hey, PhAzE

 

I'm using your PlexConnect plugin, but it looks like it's not honoring the custom repo field. I'm attempting to use the repo at https://github.com/CyberGhost84/PlexConnect, but when I do so it just installs the same repo as default.

[rukiddin]

Yesterday I noticed that SABNZBD was reporting a new version available, so I checked the plugin and without thinking clicked upgrade.

 

It should have upgraded to version 1.1.0 (the release), I had previously been running on a release candidate for 1.1.0.  However, it downgraded to 1.0.3

 

I'm sure it's an update file location, or a naming issue.  Just thought I'd report it.

 

Thanks

 

Mike

 

[rukiddin]

FYI.. Checked SABNZBD again today, and low and behold version 1.1.0 showed up again as a viable update.  This time it downloaded and updated correctly, so all is good.

 

just fyi

 

 

[PhAzE]

Yea, they likely miss labeled the actual download zip file and corrected it today. Something they've actually done before.
