crspangenberg Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Hello all, I am very new to UnRaid and Linux and after having many issues using Windows 10 and storage spaces, losing all of my data to storages spaces corruptions I have decided to move to Unraid. So far everything has been great and is well worth the money I paid for it. I am having a few growing pains that I am sure are user error. I was hoping the great minds of this forum could give me some help and best practices. Although I have done as much research as possible I cannot seem to find a thread with my similar issue. If there is one and I missed it I apologize, and please point me in the right direction. My issues seem to occur each time I update the Plex Inc. Plex Docker. After an update the system will work but within a short time I will no longer be able to access the Web UI or the Media Server from any of my devices. The only fix I have been able to come up with so far is removing the Docker and all files/folders from the Appdata folder and reinstalling the plugin, losing all metadata and information. The Plex Log shows this: But never actually starts. [s6-init] making user provided files available at /var/run/s6/etc...exited 0. [s6-init] ensuring user provided files have correct perms...exited 0. [fix-attrs.d] applying ownership & permissions fixes... [fix-attrs.d] done. [cont-init.d] executing container initialization scripts... [cont-init.d] 40-plex-first-run: executing... [cont-init.d] 40-plex-first-run: exited 0. [cont-init.d] 50-plex-update: executing... [cont-init.d] 50-plex-update: exited 0. [cont-init.d] done. [services.d] starting services [services.d] done. Starting Plex Media Server. Any help information would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment
DZMM Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 How are you updating the docker? If you're updating it within Plex - don't, as that causes problems. Disable updates within the docker/don't do manual updates, and let the docker author take care of your updates. Quote Link to comment
crspangenberg Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Thank you for the reply DZMM, I am only doing updates through the docker. As is update from the docker tab within Unraid. Not through the Plex app itself. Quote Link to comment

Not through the Plex app itself. doesn't look like a simple answer - I'd post in the thread for the docker you are using e..g binhex, linuxserver etc Quote Link to comment
crspangenberg Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) 10/4, I posted on the Plex forums so I'm hoping for a response there, but It seems like I had this issue with Binhex-plexpass and that is why i switched over to plexinc, I only seem to be having issues with Plex though. Just incase there is something that stands out I posed my docker settings. Edited March 8, 2018 by crspangenberg Quote Link to comment
DZMM Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I'd try the linuxserver or binhex docker as you'll get help on this forum then Quote Link to comment

Just incase there is something that stands out I posed my docker settings. I am using same version as you (Plex inc) without any difficulties. Only setting I have that is different is the mapping to the appdata folder, I am using /mnt/cache/appdata/Plex/ where you have /mnt/user/appdata/PlexMediaServer/ I don't believe that it makes any difference but you could try changing from /user/ to /cache (from user share to disk share, assuming you are using a cashe disk). I has been mentioned for other containers that this could make a difference. 1 Quote Link to comment
crspangenberg Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 So far it seems like this worked Leifgg, Plex updated on Sunday and is still working so that is a plus. I will let you know if it maintains. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
