SJOWG Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I've installed LinuxServer Plex in Docker. Here's the run command: root@localhost:# /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker run -d --name='plex' --net='host' --log-opt max-size='50m' --log-opt max-file='1' -e TZ="America/Los_Angeles" -e HOST_OS="Unraid" -e 'VERSION'='docker' -e 'NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'='' -e 'TCP_PORT_32400'='32400' -e 'TCP_PORT_3005'='3005' -e 'TCP_PORT_8324'='8324' -e 'TCP_PORT_32469'='32469' -e 'UDP_PORT_1900'='1900' -e 'UDP_PORT_32410'='32410' -e 'UDP_PORT_32412'='32412' -e 'UDP_PORT_32413'='32413' -e 'UDP_PORT_32414'='32414' -e 'PUID'='99' -e 'PGID'='100' -v '/mnt/user/media/Movies/':'/movies':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/media/RecordedTV/':'/tv':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/media/Music/':'/music':'rw' -v '':'/transcode':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/media/videos/':'/videos':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/media/pictures/':'/photos':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/plex':'/config':'rw' 'linuxserver/plex' e438d613a4c29e3feb94f36ab8a1a2c5cdd28bd07c1580ef4dd070332e0dcd9b The command finished successfully! But when I open the GUI, it shows me two copies of my server: one that has my Music, Other Videos, and Photos shares shown, and the other that shows my Movies share. The first one has an exclamation point on it, and when I click on it, Plex tells me the server is unavailable. When I click on the second one (the one that shows the Movies share), all seems well. I can add the other libraries to the second one, but how do I delete the first one? And how did I get two in the first place? Quote Link to comment

UnInfamous Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Can someone please tell/refer to the how to in running through https://support.plex.tv/articles/201100678-repair-a-corrupt-database/? I'm not open to removing clearing it out and recreating my libraries as I've spend 10s to 100s of hours customizing. I'm hitting a wall on getting SQlite3 as I'm completely out of my depth.

I have this drive running for transcoding but I cannot for the life of me see where in Plex to set the new location for metadata I assume to do this, I would need to move my appdata directory to the SSD and change the docker to point to that appdata?

Seriously_Clueless Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) Error: Quote Not available outside your network Your server is signed in to Plex, but is not reachable from outside your network. So I really looked at various references on this forum as well as various plex docker support forums but I cant figure out how I can get remote access working. The Netgear Orbi router is set to port forward 32400 to the internal 10.0.0.29 IP. The router also assigns 10.0.0.29 always to my unraid server. The unraid server has the ip, I checked and the settings in network are: eth0 Enable bridging yes IP v4 10.0.0.29 Plex docker is set to: Network Mode Host 32400 port is enabled with TCP The Plex docker is stating in the log files: Dec 02, 2019 21:18:21.933 [xxx] DEBUG - Detected primary interface: 10.0.0.29 Furthermore port manually set in the Plex GUI under the remote access to 32400. Greatly appreciate if anyone has advise on how to fix the remote access. Thanks in advance. Edited December 2, 2019 by Seriously_Clueless Quote Link to comment
SavellM Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) @Seriously_Clueless I would you suggest you tick the port in Plex to manually set it. I had the same issue where it kept saying isn't accessible outside of network, only after I clicked the port mapping button and manually put 32400 would it then say its accessible outside. Try this and let us know how it goes. *edit* Just read your ending you did this already... my bad Edited December 2, 2019 by SavellM Quote Link to comment
Seriously_Clueless Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 thank you for the reply so, yes indeed it is set. I am wondering if it has to do with the routing table from Unraid: IPv4 default 10.0.0.1 via br0 210 IPv4 10.0.0.0/24 br0 210 IPv4 172.17.0.0/16 docker0 1 IPv4 192.168.122.0/24 virbr0 1 Do I need to add or delete anything here? The 192.168 is from my old network when I initially set up Unraid, then I moved it into the house network which is 10.0.0.0/24. I also read someone stating to add a route IPv4 10.0.0.0/24 eth0 1 to get it to work but since I dont understand the details and it was a very old forum topic I am wondering if I should do that, I dont want to render Unraid useless as you can imagine.

snoopi114 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Im having an issue to where my plex server says "unreachable" even though im on the same network. Ive tried many different things to try and fix it but nothing is working. and im not sure where else to go. ive tried rolling back the version, ive tried updating the entire unraid os, ive tried using other source dockers for plex. i all get the same errer of my libraries showing "unreachable" Any help? What do you all need for info to help figure out what is wrong? Im at a loss here and it just started today. Quote Link to comment

What do you all need for info to help figure out what is wrong? Im at a loss here and it just started today. Without any details in terms of network setup, config and so on it is impossible to help. As you can see in my post, you should provide similar details. Also ensure you include the router settings, especially when you have activated the router security features. That should help pinning the issue you are facing down. Quote Link to comment
be4con Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I've just moved to this Docker from the Plexmediaserver Docker after receiving a message about that one being deprecated. As far as I can tell all the settings have been transcribed across to this Docker correctly but for some reason I can't access my shares using this Docker, Plexmediaserver still works fine. Can anyone help me understand what the issue is and get this setup properly? Let me know what info you need to help. Thanks Quote Link to comment

Since you have specified a different appdata path for the other docker then you haven't actually got any libraries added yet. The appdata contains the plex library database. Since this is a new appdata it is a new installation of that plex library database. Quote Link to comment

All of my back ups have this issue since around the update to 6.7 which is too far for me to go back to. Of course I'll make a backup before attempting, I just need some guidance in doing so. Is anyone else able to assist? I only need to be able to get a command line working with SQLite3 on my server so I can run the commands provided from Plex. Quote Link to comment
