DVR postprocessing error (comercials not being removed)

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops
1

Server Version#: 1.14.1.5488 on CentOS 7

Starting sometime early in December, possibly right after the upgrade to this version but I can’t remember for sure, the post-processing on all of my recordings failed. The shows record just fine, but the commercials are not removed.

I was using a custom script which I have disabled, and I have made sure that the transcoding folder has the proper permissions. There are no alerts in the audit.log, so it’s not a selinux issue. I cannot figure out where $PLEX_HOME is and when I try to download logs from the media player I get an error.

If someone could point me in the right direction to figure out what is going on and how to fix it, I would really appreciate it.

I was finally able to get the log files to download. This is the section that I think has the problem.

Are the commercials not being removed because that txt file isn’t getting transferred?
