[Solved] Plexinc/pms-docker using VERSION=beta not updating to the latest available PMS version

[abhi.ko]

Hi - I’m new to docker, so wanted to double check if I am doing something incorrectly.

I am currently running the PMS version Version: 1.19.5.3112 and hosting the server on unRAID using the plexinc/pms-docker, I have set VERSION=beta in the docker config and I’m a plexpass customer.
However, after restarting the container multiple times PMS is not getting updated automatically, and I get the server update available message every time I log into my PMS webUI.

I had initially created the container with VERSION=latest and have since then edited to all other values - beta, plexpass and public but none of those seem to update the PMS.

Any help is appreciated - what is the right way to automatically update PMS to the latest available beta or public versions?

You would probably be best asking this question on the Pled support thread since they control which versions are pulled down for their container

No worries. Was struggling to find a solution there hence though i would try here. 

 

Seems the answer for any one trying this is here just add :plexpass to the respository name.

Thanks for the info here @abhi.ko. Why on earth does Plex NOT list this litterally ANYWHERE in the docker page or Github!??! 

Anyway, it should be noted (as you linked!) - Plex has CHANGED it to require 'beta' now, NOT plexpass. So make sure you have repository and version set to that!!!
