Hi,
I can’t claim my server. I am running Plex on a Raspberry Pi 4b (installed via Repo (Debian Bookworm base)). I can log into Plex fine and when I go to claim the server, it tells me there was a problem logging onto Plex, and won’t let me Claim the Server, I’ve tried different logins to no success. I am also told my version is out of date, I have the latest version
Opening my Plex server by it’s ip address, I am connected to the same router that the server is connected to, let’s say the server is http://123.456.789.000:32400. I am accessing http://123.456.789.000:32400 via my laptop (who’s IP is 123.456.789.001, for example)…
I would assume that if I am on the same router I should be on the same SubNet as the server. I have even tried accessing the server via VNC and registering it off the server itself via the servers local IP (http://123.456.789.000:32400).
You turned off DEBUG logging – I can’t see what it’s actually attempting to do.
What I can see is network failure trying to configure PMS for the local LAN

Best advice here is to examine the network configuration.
Make certain you have one of the adapters configured as the default adapter/gateway.
Make certain your DNS is either pointed to a public DNS IP or your modem/router
I advise turning on DEBUG logging again ( logDebug="1" in Preferences.xml) temporarily so you can better see what’s happening while debugging then turn it off again when done.
When I went into my network settings I noticed I have two hardwired ETHERNET connections, so I removed on of those and disabled the WiFi connection too… so there is just one connection now…
I am looking into the multicast stuff now Hopefully these new logs will shed some light
ip a reveals this…

The multicast address range is 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255 and defined by the host
I don’t know what that is? I have a Docker bridge setup, but that shouldn’t be interfering (the 172… IP). Could there be a dependency missing? or is this purely configuration…
I am not actually sure what is wrong here… I’ve had to rebuild my Server recently (Raspberry Pi4b w/ Debian Bookworm), and now the networking isn’t working properly, when it was before I rebuilt it. So you can understand why I am struggling… As this should be working out of the box…
I’ve fixed it by losing my sh*t and reformatting the whole server and starting from scratch, as you said it could have been a corrupted network config, so I wiped everything out and started again, again.
