Failed to start plexmediaserver.service: Unit plexmediaserver.service is masked

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops

Server Version#: 1.41.7.9799
Player Version#: n/a

Updated plexmedaserver on debian (raspberry pi) from 1.41.6.9685, and now get the “Failed to start plexmediaserver.service: Unit plexmediaserver.service is masked” error when trying to start the service.

Plexmediaserver logs are blank for after the update.
I see nothing relevant in system logs either.

I have downgraded to 1.41.6.9685 for now and it is now working again.

  1. sudo systemctl unmask plexmediaserver.service
  2. sudo systemctl reset-failed
  3. Go back to 1.41.6 and remain there a while. 1.41.7 has major DB bloat problems.
