April 24, 20251 yr I am having a weird error, and wanted to see if other see it. If I try and get to my Plex Server just by ip:port I get a Error 401. But, if I go to UnRAID first and open the webpage from the Docker tab it opens up just fine. This start very recently.

Any ideas how to fix this? 4 hours ago, strahd_zarovich said: If I try and get to my Plex Server just by ip:port I get a Error 401. apparently plex has removed the redirection to /web, so now you need to append /web to the url, for example:- http://192.168.1.10:32400/web

For others interested, I added this to my nginx proxy config to redirect to /web/. # Redirect root to /web location = / { return 302 /web/; } location / { # Normal config here... I tried having another location for /web/ but couldn't get it working.
April 28, 20251 yr I recently updated to 1.41.7.9717-1-01 over the weekend and for one of my libraries my 'Refresh Metadata' and 'Fix Match' options stopped working, when i would select 'Fix Match' the presented options were completely blank and I could not even search the title within TVDB. For extra context I use XMBCnfoTVimporter as that libraries main agent and manually 'Fix Match' a series when I add it and get the metadata from TVDB, up until this update it has been working fine for the past year. Rolling back to 1.41.6.9685-1-01 immediately fixed the issue, is this by design from Plex with the latest updatae or just a bug from the latest updated? I would assume the latter. Anyone else run into a similar issue with the new update or able to recreate? dbrepair.sh scan showed no issues with database either before and after scanning
April 29, 20251 yr Fixing Plex Behind Cloudflare Tunnel After the Latest Update Hey everyone! I’ve been running my Plex server behind a Cloudflare Tunnel for a while, but the recent Plex update introduced a change where the web interface now requires /web at the start of every request. Here’s how I fixed it with a simple URL Rewrite Rule in Cloudflare: Open Your Cloudflare Dashboard Log in to Cloudflare and select your account and website. Go to Rules > Overview. Click Create rule > URL Rewrite Rule. Configure the Rewrite Rule Rule Name: Plex Web UI Rewrite If Incoming Request matches: http*://plex.mydomain.com* Then… Action: Rewrite Path of Moved Section Target Path: (leave blank) Rewrite To: /web Your final rule should effectively read: Match requests to plex.mydomain.com/* and rewrite the path to /web. Save and Test Save the rule and make sure it’s enabled (you may need to drag it to the top of your rule list). Open your browser and visit: https://plex.mydomain.com You should be redirected automatically to /web and see the Plex login screen. Why This Works The Cloudflare Tunnel proxies requests from plex.mydomain.com to your local Plex server at localhost:32400. The URL Rewrite Rule appends /web to every incoming request, satisfying Plex’s new requirement without any extra bookmarks or manual redirects. That’s it! You’re back up and running. Hope this helps anyone else who ran into the same issue Cloudflare Tunnels! 😊
April 30, 20251 yr Im having a strange thing happening for about a week now a few remote managed users are getting a playback error on some material but not all. It states playback has stopped due to multiple playback errors. please check your connection and try again. They are able to watch the episodes if they decrease the playback quality as low as it goes. But outside of these few episodes everything else plays fine no issues
April 30, 20251 yr Forgot to mention I am transcoding to ram, using a intel iGPU from a 12700k. I looked at my logs and i dont see any errors and if i try and play back the same material both remotely and locally i dont see the same issues. But if they try it always fails, and its multiple users. Is it possible to transfer to the non plex pass version without breaking my plex setup? Edited April 30, 20251 yr by T_Matz
April 30, 20251 yr Last update, I just rolled back the version to binhex/arch-plexpass:1.41.6.9685-1-01 and now everything is working as expected again. Not sure what the issue was with the new version but it did not like remote play on a few tvs. I think they are roku TVs
April 30, 20251 yr If you are getting the 401 error, edit the template, set the WebUI field to: http://[IP]:[PORT:32400]/web
May 1, 20251 yr On 4/22/2025 at 4:58 AM, binhex said: try stopping the container, then delete the file /config/perms.txt and then start the container, this should reset permissions for you, it could take a while to process so leave it running until the conainer starts, or if it's in a broken state then leave it for around 30 minutes then perform the dbrepair.sh again I"m sorry got pulled away for travel for work. Is perms.txt located on the flash drive? If so my config doesn't have a perms.txt file in it? If its located somewhere could you point me in the right direction? Thank you! EDIT: Found it...its in the docker director...deleted it but it didn't seem to help. My system is pretty messed up and docker container don't want to restart once they've been stopped so I had to restart my server to get it to restart plex. So not sure if that impacted what you mentioned about resetting permissions. Edited May 1, 20251 yr by valhalla540

May 16, 20251 yr I just updated to the latest version of binhex-plexpass and my local live tv now stutters. I have an hdhomerun hooked up. I'm not all that familiar with unraid, so bear with me. How do I rollback to the prior version? I'm not seeing anywhere in the container info where I can edit the version I want. UPDATE: I figured it out. A rollback to v. 1.41.7.9749-1-01 seems to have fixed the issue. Edited May 16, 20251 yr by Jack_Flack
May 17, 20251 yr on Unraid 7.1.2, binhex-plexpass docker version 1.40.2.8312-1-04. not showing any updates available, but when i find binhex-plexpass in the app store, it shows that it was recently updated. i also see some others above mentioning a version that would be above mine. this would be a non issue, but the recent plex ios app update it now saying that i have to update my server to be able to access it through the app. any ideas why i wouldnt be showing an update available?

May 20, 20251 yr Hello all. I tried searching through for "Not authorized" but couldn't find anything. I am trying to migrate my Windows Plex server to the binhex-plexpass on my Unraid server. I want to have as little impact as possible to my remote users. I have copied the entire "Plex Media Server" folder from my Windows machine that includes the "Cache" and all other folders over to the "Plex Media Server" within the /config folder on the Unraid container. I added the PLEX_CLAIM variable but I still get "Not authorized" and I don't see the server show up in my "Authorized Devices" on my Plex account. Has anyone successfully done something like this?

I'm okay dealing with issues and can just roll back easily enough if something does break.
