Webinterface not starting anymore #61
Comments
First it looks like avahi-daemon is running in the docker instance. How do i restart it?
|
Some more info i should add - the port forwards seem to be fine since the webinterface worked before in this very docker instance. And all other networking is working as mentioned earlyer. And the UID and GID where checked and they comply with https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/plex/ |
Plexpass is not a valid variable for version as far as I know. Its only latest, public or a specific version. |
https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-plex Version variables are here, @tobbenb is right. |
Yeah sorry its |
And what happens with a fresh config? |
Ok did a fresh config: I removed that docker + image. I reinstalled it again and only set the |
You still used the config from the old container? |
Yup. I dont want to lose my Plex watch history.. |
You don't loose them by trying a fresh config. This is for troubleshooting. |
can you try navigating to It will reset Plex to default but not cause you to lose your library database. |
Ok thats good to know. I made a |
Should i also NOT use the same |
For testing a fresh config you need to use another folder. Just call it pmstest. That will be in your appdata folder. |
Ok i just tried with just renaming Thanks! I would never have tried this otherwise. 🎱 😄 I wonder what might have caused that. I'll see if i can post it here (without some sensitive values if any) |
Most likely a setting from that old version (limetech) that our version liked. Or a corrupt file. |
Thanks to @tobbenb and @CHBMB. So my take from this is when upgrading from limetech to linuxserver Plex docker, it might be wise to rename Preferences.xml. Is this documented somewhere for people that convert? I logged in and can confirm the watch history is still there. I'll post the contents from |
I don't think it's a common issue, I know others that have migrated without problems so don't think we need to add it to the readme. Don't post anything from preferences, it's got lots of stuff in it you don't want to publish on the internet. |
i think it's something to do with one of the tokens in the preferences.xml file, had a user some months ago with a similar issue. |
Hey just wanted to chime in on this. I had this happen to me and the setting I changed to cause it was to tell my server to require secure connections. I assumed this would be streaming via the plex central server, not internally for the web based management UI. |
Hey, +1 for Teggles, same thing happened to me. Changed the value of secure connections backed to true and all good! |
Or just tell your browser to connect via HTTPS and accept the unsigned certificate. |
@Teggles, this might work for a direct connection but at least for me the indirect (through plex.tv) was still broken. |
I have a situation where Plex is running but the webserver is not.
I previously used Limetech Plex docker on Unraid for a while, but wanted to use the latest plex pass version so i switched to Linuxserver Plex. Odd thing is, it ran OK for a few hours before the issue appeared.
I document it here with all specifics i can find, it may be of use to others.
The conversion was simple:
I removed the old docker, then installed this one.
Set the
config
andmedia
directories, and launched it.For a few hours the webinterface was working fine. Now a day later i find that its offline.

The Linuxserver Plex docker settings in Unraid 6.1.7:

edit: replaced screenshot, no plexpass version
The docker log in Unraid:
Yep, that log just ends there when i reboot it. At this point the Plex server is usable via Android app (browsing and streaming) but not via a webinterface.
I once found some avahi errors via a ssh session somewhere, but right now cant find it anymore.
No symlinks involved that i am aware of, i didnt make any for sure.
I'm going to update this issue with my findings. I do this here instead of on the Limetech forum because i use this docker, i followed all instructions available that i am aware of, and because i saw avahi errors for this docker.
