Help needed: the kafkaesque nightmare of Docker server reclaims

Server Version#: plexinc/pms-docker plexpass

So I’m running a Plex Server on a local Ubuntu server. Always worked fine, but experienced some issues after moving places and setting up a new network. In my ‘troubleshooting’ I removed the Plex claim and now can’t reclaim. I’ve been working on this for a day now, without luck.

What I tried:
Whenever I log in, local.host, 192.xxx:32400/web, or plex.tv I always end up at the web version of plex, without any option of claiming or connecting to the server. This was never any issue before.

Steps taken:

  • image prune
  • Remove Preferences.xml (it doesn’t seem to populate)
  • container stop + start + rebuild
  • new plex claim via https://account.plex.tv/en/claim
  • hard coding the claim in the Traefik doc, instead of using plex secrets.
  • trying some of the suggested automation tools

Any help for this broken process is much appreciated. Thanks team.
