[PlexConnect]
enable_plexgdm = True
ip_pms = 10.0.1.181
port_pms = 32400

Detail on the media file if it is an issue related to playing a media file:
No Media can load on the aTV. Only get an error message that trailers are unavailable.

detailed description of the issue (the clearer you can make this the better):
Followed the wiki to set up PlexConnect.
Webserver on port 80 starts fine.
Dns server on port 53 starts fine.
The apple tv works normally until the DNS intercepts trailers.apple.com and I get the error message on the aTV "Trailers is unavailable."
When I visit the PlexConnect webserver in a web browser I get this message:

Error response

Error code 403.

Message: Not Serving Client 10.0.1.60.

Error code explanation: 403 = Request forbidden – authorization will not help. 

Note: When I turn off plex connect, this response goes away. I am directly hitting plexconnect and not some phantom apache I have running. 

 

Ensure you post your 'PlexConnect.log' file to pastebin and post the link ('PlexConnect.log' is located in your PlexConnect folder). If possible, follow these steps to create a "more detailed fresh" one:

Thanks for all the hard work you all do.

 

I would try to regenerate and re-install your certs as step 1. Post results, if that doest fix it I would look at installed programs or ports that may be in use preventing it from running.

The error when using another browser is expected if it doesn’t detect the right user string.

If you other applications are working when PlexConnect is running is would suspect something wrong with the certs generation/loading, try deleting the profile from the ATV and the files from the PlexConnect folder and THEN creating them fresh (reload to the ATV profile and PlexConnect folder) and then rebooting the ATV to ensure its cache is cleared.
