Server Version#: 1.29.0.6219
Hi all. My old plex server died. I’ve rebuilt it on a new server, but the post-processing script doesn’t seem to be working properly (or at all).
I’ve tried digging through the logs to find any mention, but I don’t have confidence that I’ve checked the right one. Which log file should I be looking for to see if the batch file is even being called? I have the batch file in the prescribed folder in AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Scripts
Many thanks! Will.
I found the right log, I think, but I can’t see why the script failed (and it’s the same script and set up that I used prior to the HW failure in the old server).
Here’s the log except:

if %status% == "not present" (

goto loop
)
Any help much appreciated!
