I get that error from time-to-time. I just exit plex(exit plex entirely), wait a minute or two, launch plex up and wait a few seconds\*, then create the new library.
\*I usually keep PlexWeb up while/after I exit plex. The page basically tells me when plex exits cause it can’t find server anymore. Then I know to launch plex again. The page will refresh and server will be found. That’s my cue, lol.
