Server Version#:1.18.0.1892-6887070bc
Player Version#:n/a

Prompted in PLEX to update server to PlexMediaServer-1.18.0.1892-6887070bc-x86_64 on my Synology DS-1819+. All appeared to install as normal but now PLEX will not run and Synology error pops up, ‘Failed To Run The Package Service’

Everything fine till the update can someone give me some pointer?

got the same problem

in the PLEXAHOLICS FB page I’ve been told this for PLEX running inside Docker, my installation is not.

“Wipe the docker and reinstall it. Don’t delete appdata obviously, just grab the package from the docker registry again. You likely broke something by updating the application package within the docker.”

I can not get the service to start either. There’s something wrong with the build. I had to downgrade and all is well again.

Avoid!
