Cannot Claim Plex Media Server

Server Version#: 4.63.0
Player Version#:

I’ll start by saying I am new to all this and not really an IT whizz. Im just OK.

I recently purchased a new router and assigned a static IP for my Synology DS920+ NAS.

When I started up Plex, it couldn’t access my shares anymore. So I decided to re-install Plex and fingers crossed this ‘fixed’ the issue. Didn’t work. So I uninstalled again and deleted my shares thinking this would do a ‘clean’ install. Rebooted… installed and now I can see my NAS, but refuses to ‘claim it’ no matter what I have done. I have signed out of all devices. I have deleted all devices Authorised devices other than my NAS/PC on PMS.

I used a tool called Claim It I found on this forum, but that failed and said…

PROBLEM: getting plex.tv Authentication Token… Job Aborted
Error was : The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred
FATAL ERROR: … job aborted.

I have read a heap of other posts… pulling my hair out here LOL…
Anyone can help me? Thanks

Here are my logs for referenceLogs.zip (505.3 KB)

I also have now uninstalled and reinstalled using the claim token option. Still didn’t work…

Thank you for providing the logs with your post. It’s made my job much easier and I’m able to help you immediately.

Your DSM configuration in Control Panel - Network needs the DNS / gateway updated to point to the IP address of the new router
