Server Version#: 1.43.5.11029  
Player Version#: N/A

I noticed this in my [server logs](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200250417-plex-media-server-log-files/) from the cron jobs for updating plex in a container in my server. Looks like one of the repositories is erroring with a 404 issue, anyone else seeing this after updating?

`root@plex:~# sudo apt-get update`  
`Ign:1 ``https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb`` public InRelease`  
`Err:2 ``https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb`` public Release`  
`404 Not Found [IP: 172.64.151.205 443]`  
`Hit:3 ``http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu`` noble InRelease`  
`Hit:4 ``http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu`` noble-updates InRelease`  
`Hit:5 ``http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu`` noble-security InRelease`  
`Reading package lists... Done`  
`E: The repository '``https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb`` public Release' no longer has a Release file.`  
`N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.`  
`N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.`

See: [https://support.plex.tv/articles/235974187-enable-repository-updating-for-supported-linux-server-distributions/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/235974187-enable-repository-updating-for-supported-linux-server-distributions/)

There is a script there you can call to install the new repository.
