Anyone else having an issue where you can’t claim the server? I’ve tried 3 different browsers on 2 different computers and it keeps saying There was an error logging in… I know the password is correct as I’ve checked and rechecked and even changed it.
Try following these steps. https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/204281528-Why-am-I-locked-out-of-Server-Settings-and-how-do-I-get-in-
I tried these suggestions and I am seeing the following error when trying to claim the server. I know the username and password are correct.

Here is the error I’m seeing
Did some more digging and was able to find the following in the logs. its a DNS issue on the Thecus itself. I resolved that and bam everything is working again.
