Hey Chuck (appreciate the efforts you and @dane22 are making covering up for others mess )
I’ve done both from same internal network, and directly on my QNAP NAS
I’ve even now removed Friends and Plex Home setups so it’s as clean as possible - and for whatever reason I don’t get a claim option, I can no longer see the server even though I’m literally on it, and the server /identity still comes up as claimed=‘0’
I’ve signed out and back in a number of times - can’t seem to get it to reclaim for whatever reason. When I use the ClaimIt app I keep getting 401 errors
And I’ve followed the guide here https://support.plex.tv/articles/204281528-why-am-i-locked-out-of-server-settings-and-how-do-i-get-in/
As of now it’s giving me the option to try and add a server, and prompting me to download software - as though it can’t even see I am on the active server
Hey Gazmeist - can you talk me through how you were able to use ClaimIT?
Details here > Home · ukdtom/ClaimIt Wiki · GitHub
I’m on a docker instance on my QNAP NAS, so SSHd into my NAS and followed the Linux instructions from the Wiki

If you want to be a purist, we can get down to the command line and ‘just get’er done’
which is easy on a QNAP.
Second Choice (hard reset) is what you want.
When server and device credentials are out of sync.
Use this procedure when:
You receive the nasty “No Soup For You” message
You’ve changed your Plex password and now have trouble accessing something.
You’ve cloned the server or performed a ‘backup & restore’ using the procedures above but now cannot access the server.
First choice - Preferences.xml missing or deleted.
If something happened to “Preferences.xml” and you need to claim the server again, with everything being normal, Start he…
If this doesn’t work, grab the logs (ZIP/tar.gz) and let me see them please.
I think purist is all I’ve got left to go with :). Will take a look
ps already had the logs from my last restart/login handy

The container is definitely not authenticating.
Before giving instructions:
Do you have the /config saved to a storage location OUTSIDE the container?
Are you using Docker compose or Docker run ?
OH - I tried that already and effectively get the same error as the ClaimIt process - the curl command gives me an error
What does this setting do exactly? Should I change it as well perhaps?

@gazmeist
you need to add PLEX_CLAIM=paste_claim-xxxxxx_token_here and then generate the container and start it.
(being on a different subnet makes this grossly and overly awkward)
Are you using docker on QNAP for the tonemapping?
I am having the same issues. Can someone please reset my server’s IP? Thanks in advance!
Thanks - got it running. Unfortunately same error as yourself “Status 401”
Dane22- Seems like this is same issue everyone looks to have (internal works) plex.tv fails Do we need to request a reset one by one? I have 2 plex boxes, ones a backup of primary

I have reset your certificate. It’s ready to go.
Restart the server

Where in the yml do I put this exactly? Environment I presume?
Ignore the error - some pasted hidden character before the hyphen I’ve managed to clear
What is tonemapping? Doing everything via Docker

the \t is a tab character. You want spaces.
I do it via docker run.
sudo docker run \
-d \
--name plex \
--network=host \
-e PLEX_CLAIM="claim-2rZSB3JW2t56cJngN9kt" \
-e TZ="EST" \
-e LANG="en_US.UTF-8" \
-e PLEX_UID=1000 \
-e PLEX_GID=1000 \
-e PUID=1000 \
-e PGID=1000 \
-h dockerplex \
-v /sata/dockerplex:/config \
-v /sata/dockerplex/tmp:/tmp \
-v /sata/dockerplex/transcode:/transcode \
-v /vie:/data \
--device=/dev/dri:/dev/dri \
plexinc/pms-docker:plexpass
#docker start plex
#docker update --restart=unless-stopped plex
[chuck@lizum docker.620]$
Works the same and easier (IMHO)
Tonemapping == Allows HDR UHD (4K ) to be converted to 1080p SDR in hardware.
Your J4025 CPU will do this if you enable it.
Thank you so much!! Also, thank you all for handling this situation so well. Stuff like this is always hard to deal with, but you guys have done a great job!
