plex docker setup

Featured Replies

Hey guys, new to unraid so sorry if I say something stupid. ive finished setting up unraid OS itself, however I'm having issues with Plex. I have tried both the plugin version and docker version and I get the same issue.

 

it does not show the local server listed.

 

I can connect to the web gui at ip:32400/web and it lists all other servers that I'm connected to, but it does not list my unraid server. not sure what I'm missing.

so I originally had the  plugin, then the limetech plex docker, now using binhex docker. still the same issue of no "new"server listed. not sure what I'm missing.

 

any help would be appreciated

Did you sign your server in?

 

Settings>Server>General

  • Author

that would only work if it actually listed the server, but it does not. I can sign in to my other server because it is listed

Name conflict then? There's no reason you shouldn't see it when logged in to the server via the unraid IP.

 

Have you checked the Plex docker log ?

  • Author

no name  conflict, no errors in log,

 

trying linuxserver version now, will update in a few

ok same problem with this as well, no local server only remotes

do you have existing metadata or can you start fresh??

  • Author

this is a brand new setup, ive restarted fresh a few times today, so happy to redo it again if  needed haha

Do you have a share named APP-CACHE? Is it cache-only?

 

Do you have a share named PLEX?

 

Note that the names must match exactly including upper/lower case.

yes to all

Post screen shots of the unraid.ip:32400/web screens for Settings>Server

i actually just figured it out!

 

instead of going to unraid via ip then plex via docker webgui, i accessed from another server on the network via //tower then docker webgui and that started up the setup server screen!

 

now all is good! thanks everyone!
