Can´t start Plex Media Server. Pop up: Package service cant be run

NAS Model you have: DS918+
DSM Version installed: 6.2.2-24922-4
PMS version: PlexMediaServer-1.18.3.2156-349e9837e-x86_64
Plex suddenly stopped working. I can log in to Plex , but get an error message that the server can´t be reached.

Checked the Package Center and found that Plex Media Server was set to “Stopped”.

Tried to restart it by pressing “Run”. For a microsecond it seems to be running, until it is set to “Stopped” again.

Have tried to log out from Plex, and then start it.
Uninstall and reinstall Plex,
Uninstall and reinstall Plex with an older version
And the old classic: Rebooted Synology.
And combinations of the above.

Nothing has worked so far, and i would be grateful for some help.

Thank you so much Chuck!

I would have been lost without this information from you
