I am having an issue with my Plex docker as well.  It will not start.  i have tried removing and reinstalling, tried deleting the docker image.  It happens regardless of which plex docker I install, (binhex, linusserver, plexinc).  I have had it working before, and quite well.  This started after I cleared my config and rebuilt the array.

 

Here is the log from start until I stop it:

And where is your docker run command?

I have split your posts into their own thread. Please don't hijack. It is very difficult to support multiple people in the same thread, even if they think (possibly incorrectly) they have the same issue.

Well I had the same thing happen. Found out that (even after clearing out my flash drive) as soon as I put on the CA Backup it caused the problem. Removed the CAbackup manually by removing the plugin from another machine. Bingo, spent 3 days trying to get it going. Tried all 3 main dockers. Linuxserver.IO Limetech PlexMediaServer and plex.inc. All with similar problems with the exception of Limetechs. It was throwing a 6  1000 error. Wonder if something in CA Backup is causing a loop as I've never had it happen before!

I use Linuxserver.IO Plex and CA Backup and have not had this issue. I am sure many others can say the same.

 

If you want support for this

I'm having this exact issue!  It seemed to start happening when I use these settings:

Tunable (md_write_method):

 reconstruct write

Tunable (enable Direct IO):

 Yes

 

Not sure if this has anything to do with it.

Not sure if this has anything to do with it.

A possible test to see if it has anything to do with it would be to change those settings back.

Had the same issue with starting. I baselined my settings and didn't do any tuning pulling all plugins. Only plugins I had installed was CA and backup. Pulled backup and removed the docker and did a repull. Then it started, odd I would find that one causing an issue. Post rebuild I did reload tips and tweaks and recycle bin and haven't had issues. Did you recently update any plugins? Not fully placing the blame on CA Backup but that's what I removed to fix. My log starting looked the same as CattDamon's above.
