[Support] Linuxserver.io - Plex Media Server


Recommended Posts

Attached is my full diagnostic server log.  I found out that drive 1 is having some sector issues, but nothing showed up on the dashboard.  I will be replacing it later today.  However, I don't think this has anything to do with not being to re-instal Plex.

 

Would I need to delete everything related to Plex from the config and appdata folders?  I've tried to install LimeTech and 2 other Plex plugins via docker, and I am not able to get to install.  Thanks for all the help.

So you're saying you can't get any of the Plex docker containers to install?  Sounds like this is a problem that is more than just Plex if so.  What other containers you got?  How big is your docker.img? Where is your docker.img?

Update your sig, obviously you are not running V5.

 

Are you sure your docker img isn't full?

 

I updated unRAID and then updated this Plex container and no issues for me.

Can you post a screenshot for your Plex docker container setup?

Thanks!  Any way to run on the plexpass version ?  I did not read all the thread :P

 

I'm already running, but not on the plexpass version.

 

** EDIT **

 

Forget that stupid question, I set VERSION to plexpass, now have the plexpass version :) 

 

That also fixed my CPU usage issue that the version 6.1.9 brought this morning (that was caused by my aging needo plex Docker.)

I did not find a Linuxserver general thread, so I post here istead. Still relevant.

 

I am not using any dockers from Linuxserver atm, but I am maybe switching to. I have heard that to update dockers, you have to restart it.

If I go to the docker tab on my unRAID server, and click "check for updates", will the new update show up there?

As a rule, no, although once a month we update the base image which will cause it to show up, but for app updates then a container restart, unraid array restart or docker service restart is required.

Thanks! Do you update the base image then it has been no updates with the docker itself?

I tried to switch to this dokcer image, why does it not accept spaces in "host path" or "Contrainer volume"? (/mnt/user/Tv Shows/ and /Tv_Shows)

 

It does, as I've used spaces in them before...

I tried to switch from Limetech image. Then I add a space I get this error message, if I remove it it works fine.

OK, I took a look at this and you're right, now I'm pretty sure you used to be able to use spaces in share names before as I'm 99% certain I used to use them.  But here's the kicker, I've just tried with needo's version and LimeTech's version and all of them are reporting the same error.  So I don't think this is a problem with our container, but rather a docker issue.  You upgraded to 6.1.9?  That's the Unraid version I'm using currently...

Yes, upgraded unRAID version at the same time I changed docker..

 

How long will it take limetech to fix this? (if it is their fault)

I dunno.... I'll go and get my crystal ball out of the car....  ;D

 

I'm just investigating my theory with my Unraid-VM....

Tell us what you find out :)

Hehe, I know you don't know exact time, was just wondering what I could expect. Hope for a hotfix in a couple of days.

Taking the spaces away, and even putting move spaces doesn't do anything.  The issue I've got now, is that I can't install anyone's version of Plex.  I keep getting an orphan image!

 

So the solution would be to remove the spaces from your shares.  Only thing I can think of right now.  :-[

I don't think that's going to help since none's version of Plex Media Server will install.  Every time I tried to install it, I get an orphan image.

Can you try the following, download and unzip the attached file docker.zip and copy the docker script to:

 

/usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts

 

Make sure the docker script is executable (chmod +x /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker) if needed.

 

Like to hear your feedback.
