Plex Media Server Not Found

Postby FstrThanYours » Tue Dec 20, 2016 7:21 pm

Hello everyone...sorry but I'm new here and I've been searching wiki's all day with no luck.

I installed Plex via Amahi store and can get to it via the work around (http://hda:32400/web) but sometimes have to shutdown/restart my wireless on my laptop even to get that to work.

Once I get into Plex, it does not see the server running for me to sign into it. When i go to settings in Amahi, i can see the Plex Media Server is running, but MariaDB Server is showing as stopped and I can't get it to run/restart....so not sure if that has anything to do with this or not.

I've used Plex before on my Mac, but am new to the Fedora/Amahi world....sorry for the newb question...grateful for any assistance from this community.

Thanks

Try the following:

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl restart mariadb sudo systemctl status mariadb
It should reflect running if all goes well.

Otherwise, please post the URL for:

Code: Select all

Don't see anything wrong here.

Not sure what the trouble could be. You might consider checking the Plex Media Server web site or their forums.

Update- the only way i can successfully get to Plex AND have it connect to the media server is via 10.0.1.10:32400. The other links did not work for me.

Are you using the HDA for DHCP on your network?

Did you check the Plex Media Server forums or web site?
