That's the one but if VERSION="2.13.0" is not a valid parameter.  Look here, VERSION should be either latest, plexpass or a specific version number, and 2.13.0 I can tell by looking isn't a valid one.   Not that I think this is contributing to your current issue.

 

Well...that used to be just 'latest'; but I futzed with it, to try and solve the issue.

And the other questions?  No idea where you got 2.13.0 from, PMS is only on version 1.43 I think. O.o

 

Obviously, I was looking at the version of the wrong thing. But 'latest' works, right; and that's what it was...when the issue just cropped up.

By Plex logs I mean the ones in your /mnt/cache/appdata/plex/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs/

OK; I'll change Moonlight. Can you help me, with the "right" logs?

 

Thx

 

He already supplied you the info twice where the log is.

Not only change Moonlight, it would be a good idea to make sure you follow that convention for everything you add going forward from here.

OK; I changed Moonlight to Moonlight (2016); no update.

 

Lemme try and find this log file.

 

You know...you guys are INCREDIBLY helpful; and I understand your frustration. But please realize...this doesn't come as easily to some of us, as you. :$

Of course...I'll be aware of it going forward. But in my defense...247 titles, over years; and I've been OK, until a few weeks ago.

I had the linuxserver.io version of plex running very smooth for a little over 2wks. I can truly appreciate the snappy navigation of plex in a docker & ease of linuxserver.io's update process...it worked wonderfully!!! However, the docker is no longer launching; my streaming devices cannot find the server & I keep getting "This site can't be reached" (chrome & IE) when attempting to access the plex WebUI. I've tried an un&re-install of the docker, but no change. The plex docker log is continuously displaying "Starting Plex Media Server."...partial log attached. I even tried the binhex & limetech docker versions as well...still no love.

 

I can only think of one thing that I've recently done that could be affecting the docker from launching. Which was my "attempt" to setup a rsync session with another local storage server; without having to input a ssh password each time & also binding transfers over a 10GbE direct connection.

 

I digress, I'm not at all good with linux so I followed along with a youtube tutorial. One of the commands was **chmod600/root/.ssh/authorized_keys**. I didn't know at the time but as you linux vets may very well know, the chmod command pertains to the access permissions (read/write in this case). 

 

A member from another forum mentioned having to modify his chmod to get his linuxserver.io plex version working. It got me thinking that the key generation/transfer or chmod settings in the youtube tutorial had something to do with derailing my unRAID plex experience :-(

 

I could very well be off base with this theory & nothing during the process is the culprit but any feedback/assistance would be GREATLY appreciated as I would love to be pleXing again through unRAID. In the meantime, I've been using plex through the other local server, but the unRAID hardware/docker makes the experience a lot snappier.

 

Another thing, the rsync setup didn't fully work as anticipated :-(

I was able to ssh in the other server (putty) & make some transfers but haven't been able to effectively bind the transfers to the 10GbE direct connection. This the least of my concerns at the moment though.

@CDLehner Plex is scanning /movies, and in your docker run command you've got movies in /movies-BD and movies in /movies-SD

 

You done some folder reconfiguration?

 

Bear with me here:

 

Again...nothing that wasn't working before; but...

 

/movie is my share...and I want Plex scanning all the movies in there. But I have "volumes", mapped for different libraries; like /movies-BD, /movies-SD, etc.
