The command failed. if you're inputting the paths by hand you need to "escape" spaces. what that means is , if there is a space in a path name you need to put a \ before it so that the system knows the next character is part of the same path (ie the space) and not a new command or path.

June 16, 201511 yr Author hmm, if I just add the Movies folder, no spaces in that, it's doing the same thing. Is there an easy way to rename shares? It's not letting me rename them. Command:root@localhost:# /usr/bin/docker run -d --name="PlexMediaServer" --net="host" --privileged="true" -e TZ="America/Phoenix" -v "/mnt/cache/appdata/plex/":"/config":rw -v "/mnt/user/Movies/":"Movies":rw needo/plex invalid value "/mnt/user/Movies/:Movies:rw" for flag -v: Movies:rw is not an absolute path See '/usr/bin/docker run --help'. The command failed.
