zarnexx Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Anyone know how to downgrade plex version to 1.4.4.3495? Looks like 1.5.x having this issue. Quote Link to comment

Edit the docker with your preferred version for the version variable instead of latest or plexpass and then save the changes to the docker. Edited May 19, 2017 by wgstarks Quote Link to comment

Tried to add '1.4.4.3495' but It did not do anything. Get a error message. edit: just did a check for updates and I did update plex, same version but the error message disappeared. edit 2: I´m able to downgrade from 1.6.1.3722 to 1.5.5.3634 but not anything below that.

For instance if you look here: https://www.plex.tv/downloads/ the full version string for the current public release is 1.5.6.3790-4613ce077 Quote Link to comment

Any third party website I can use to download 1.4.x? Quote Link to comment

My solutions was to install a second Plex Server on a Windows VM and use it if I need to transcode EAE related files. Edited May 20, 2017 by zarnexx Quote Link to comment

Have you guys ran the new permissions tool on the appdata folder/cache drive? I believe that's what created the issue for me. I installed a fresh container from scratch. Everything worked fine until i ran new permissions. At that point, I started getting the transcoding error again. Quote Link to comment

I tried to install a new Plex server but experienced same problem. I can try again... Are you having issue with all transcode or just with file with AC3? My issue is just with AC3. edit: just installed a new plex server and having same issue. I´m running Plex on a 'Unassigned' SSD if it helps. Edited May 21, 2017 by zarnexx Quote Link to comment
Ezro Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hey everyone, I'm running into a space issue in my Plex Docker container (I think). When I try to download the metadata for my media, I see the following errors in the log: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Python/lib/python2.7/logging/__init__.py", line 885, in emit self.flush() File "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Python/lib/python2.7/logging/__init__.py", line 845, in flush self.stream.flush() IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device Logged from file runtime.py, line 1128 I have plenty of space in my array, but I'm not sure how I can set it so that the metadata is downloaded to my drives, rather than into the docker container. Does anyone know how I can set the download path for the metadata? Quote Link to comment

Does anyone know how I can set the download path for the metadata? The metadata is stored in the /config folder, so that is in the appdata folder for Plex. You most likely have it on your cache drive. Quote Link to comment

saarg Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 You have your share set to use the cache disk (if you have one. You didn't say). If you have one, check if it's full. It's also advice to use a disk share for the plex appdata as FUSE doesn't play nice with plex. Another thing might be your docker image is full. It might be plex stores metadata in temp before writing it to the config folder. Quote Link to comment

Also, how can I remove the temp metadata in the docker image in order to continue downloading metadata? Quote Link to comment

Change the appdata folder path to /mnt/diskX/appdata/PlexMediaServer and see if that works better. Replace the X with one of your disks. Quote Link to comment

I was hoping it'd use the whole array, and not really care about which disk(s) it's writing to. Quote Link to comment

I don't see why you would want to spread the Plex appdata on all your drives. This will spin up all drives when someone is browsing Plex. Choose one drive and if it gets full, move to another drive.

That makes sense. I need to get an SSD at some point to use as my cache drive. I actually had another issue / question about the docker container. Whenever I restart the container, I have to go through the setup process all over again in the webui. As a result, I have a huge list of plex servers in my Plex.tv account. Is this supposed to happen? Quote Link to comment

Are you sure you have your plex appdata mapped to persistent storage? Quote Link to comment
