Hi again,
I've a fresh install of Amahi 8. I used the dashboard to install Plex. If I click on the link from the dashboard, I get
"Service Unavailable - The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
I've folllowed a few other threads and tried a updating and
systemctl status amahi-plex
and got
amahi-plex.service
loaded: not found (Reason: no such file or directory)
Active:" Inactive (dead)
But it's still visible in the dashboard. I've also got a similar visible but not working problem with Owncloud - the "PHP module zip not installed. Please ask your server administrator to install the module, but I thought we could try them one at a time
Thanks

I have the same problem.
It says the Plex Media Server app is installed, and the apache server config has been added, but it doesn't seem to have actually installed Plex Media Server itself. Running "locate plex" reveals no results (outside media files with words like complex in them).
Any hints would be appreciated, as Plex MS says it is in Beta on Fedora 23, so I'd expect it to at least install - even if there were issues.
Thanks.

Try this to see if it was installed:
Also check the
/var/log/amahi-app-installer.log for errors.
Please provide the URl for:
This will help us continue with the diagnosis of the issue.
EDIT: It appears the RPM is not in the repo. We have moved the app to ALPHA until it's resolved. Hopefully it will be ready in the next few days for consumption.

Great, I'll try again later in the week. I'll open a separate thread about my owncloud problem.

Please see
bug 1942 for the
amahi-pex RPM. Leave the app installed, then follow the guidance in the bug to install
amahi-plex.
If it works well for you, please update the bug report.
We appreciate your assistance and hopefully this will work.

Hi,
I followed the instructions and initially looked promising but no luck
I no longer get the 'unavailable' message, instead the url seems to resolve but returns a blank page. I've cleared the cache and restarted but no joy.
On the upside the Plex Media Server is showing as 'running' with a green light, which it wasn't before.

I was intrigued why the server was running, and after a bit of digging, (and after following the bug install) looks like I can in fact access plex server via
http://hda:32400/web/index.html#!/setup/library and it works perfectly. Brilliant!
Doesn't work from the dashboard though, or
http://plexms.MYDOMAIN/index.html
Not sure what this indicates, so not sure how to update the bug in case its a problem at my end... Advice welcomed!

Hi there!
Yesterday I installed fedora 23 and then Amahi 9. I want to stream videos from my HDA to my Smart TV. Do I have to install DLNA and PLEx? There are neither of the two apps in my dashboard...
Thank you in advance.
