restart your HDA. Service will auto start. If you then run into permission issues (web app says you do not have permission to access server), follow the Plex wiki solution. This worked for me. :)

Please do not restart your HDA until we determine the cause of the issue. Provide the info requested to we can diagnose and determine the root cause.

Your problem stems from the fact you had Plex Media Server installed previously it appears. I see in /etc/yum.repos.d there is a plex.repo. That needs to be removed. Also if you have not removed the manual version, that will need done also. Both cannot co-exist.

Also did you exclude amahi-plex in the /etc/yum.conf file? If so that needs to be removed. Once you have done that, uninstall the app, then reinstall it from the Amahi store.

Things should start working.

If I am mistaken, please let me know and we can explore it from a different perspective.

Did you try Data not shown with Main page login? Many who have had the same issue as you resolved it with this solution.

You might also try searching the forums for a solution as well. This has happened to others if I remember correctly.
