Newest unRAID and Plex (SOLVED)


Recommended Posts

I have now tried everything that I can find to make unraid and plex work together.....   Dockers or Apps.  Every time I have to shutdown by holding the power button.   I have been a supporter of unraid for years..  Does anyone have a guide on how to get this done?  From start to finish with the newest build?  Build unRAIDServer-6.3.5-x86_64.zip to plex that doesn't cause me to rebuild parity?  I have 2 servers that are running Phazes plugins that work great.  WTF!  Is there a guide that can get me up and running from install to plex running with shared media?

I just finished upgrading to 6.3.5 from 6.0.1 and had to rebuild / recreate my docker.img file and install the existing template, including the LinuxServerIO Plex docker. Zero issues.

 

I do believe this is something unique to your situation, but we'll have to see.

 

Would suggest posting a diagnostics file. Not sure if docker templates are included in there, but I'd include a screenshot of how you have it configured. The running docker also produces a log file. It is accessed from the Docker tab. Suggest looking at that and posting it too. (Sorry, I am away from home and can't say if this is included in the zip file or not).

 

With that info, the Docker experts should be able to help better.

Thank you all for responding!   I am sorry that I left zero information that would help find a solution.   It was my adult version of throwing the NES controller after losing to Tyson again.  I am currently rebuilding the array.  This was a fresh setup on an unraid trail key and I am wondering if there is something that is causing an issue when extracting files from the plex docker.   I am going to get a fresh setup going, install the community app, the fix common issues app and make sure everything is ok and then install the Nerd pack.  Once I am done with that I will report back with the hardware from the dynamix app and get whatever else would be needed.  I am 99.9% it's user error. :ph34r:

2 hard drives 1 parity and 1 disk in the array.  No cache drive.  Docker enabled.  Fix common problems all good.   Installed all of the nerd pack.  Restarted, rechecked all good.  Again it froze on install of the Linuxserver plex docker. (I am sure that the app is not the problem.)  What else can I provide as logs, ie where do I get them?  Happy to get whatever anyone asks, even if it's a beer if you live close enough.

And update your sig.

On this forum, at upper right, there is a dropdown which will get you to your account settings. From there you can enable viewing sigs and edit your sig. Your current sig says you are running unRAID 5.0-rc5-r8168

Install Community Applications. Then install LinuxServerIO plex from Community Applications.

 

And update your sig.

 

Do you have a cache drive? Do you have any other working dockers?

Sig updated for this build and no cache drive.  No working dockers currently.

Updated to current test build.  Thank you for saying something.  I had to enable signatures to show.  I didn't realize that everyone else was looking at my stable build.

Have you read the Docker FAQ?

 

Yes, I just setup another system and was able to get that one working.  Plex linuxserver docker with mapped media.  That setup is an HP Proliant microserver.   So, I am pretty sure it is the test setup that is causing me issues.   Has anyone else has issues with AMD A10 setups?  I mirrored everything that I did on the workingr setup and no dice on my test rig that is in my signature.

This is what I get when I try to install the same docker on the test rig that I can't get working.....

I'd highly recommend grabbing a Cache Drive aka SSD simply for instant access to data and to keep other drives from spinning up and a SSD is perfect for Dockers and I'd almost bet this would help you a lot towards this issue. 

 

As for Docker Setup this is great.

So, I thank everyone for replying to this thread....  It turns out that the ram in this system that I tested last month is now bad.   I have never seen higher numbers in memtest!  Infact, I don't think that it will report numbers past 65535+ which this stick of ram hit.  So, until I report back please don't look at anything in this thread.  I will report back when I can say that I have tried with ram that is currently working.   Once again thank you for people trying to help.

This can be marked SOLVED!   Issue was the dumbass installer using ram that was bad.  :-[

 

Just edit your first Post and add (SOLVED) to the title of it. We always ask that the poster does it to make sure they are surely solved. :D
