Amahi Forums

Hello all,
so I have fresh installed amahi 7 on fedora 19. Server have one hdd, which have /swap, /boot/ and / partitions.
I have purchased Plex media server app via app store, installed successfully, but see screenshot - I cant create library, nothing...
I have looked to wiki for plex, found solution about user plex, but I havent user plex on server, so I created it, but, no success. So, Im happy with ahami, but plex confusing me a lot, because no dlna server at home :/
Can you Help me?

Your best option is to consult the Plex Media Server web site for guidance.

Forgive me, but its ahami compiled and personalized app. So I want some help, because Im no one who using plex on ahami.

Yes we do compile it for Amahi, but it's the Plex Media Server source files. We only compile it for Amahi but do not change anything with the app. The behavior and how it works is not Amahi customized and it works the same on any other OS as it does with Amahi.

So I defer you to the Plex web site for guidance on how to use the application.

This is an issue with how the link in the server directs the user. The plexms._._ address should direct the user to ServerIP:32400/web, instead it directs the user to index.html. When I changed the address to plexms._._:32400/web, it came up. Is there a way to fix this and have it direct to the right address? I figured this out from the setup directions on the Plex site.

If you installed the Server on a device like a NAS, or the Server PC is somewhere else in the house, you'll need to know the Server's internal IP Address. Once you know that IP address, on a PC in your home:
Open a browser window
Type http://server.local.ip.address:32400/web into the address bar (e.g "http://192.168.1.5:32400/web")
The browser will connect to the Server and load Plex Web App

This is correctly set up in Amahi, but for some reason does not work for all users. Contrary to what you read on the Plex web site, the URL does not have to contain the IP address. That's the purpose of the DNS server. As long as you use Amahi for your DNS server, it should just work.

However, if you are not having success with it, edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/####-plexms.conf and comment out the following two lines:

ProxyPass / http://localhost:32400/web/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:32400/web/

Next add these lines:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}:32400/web/ [R,L]

Now restart the web server: This is not a bug in the app, but an anomaly with the web server that we have been unable to track down. It does not always happen or affect all users.
