I am stuck in an endless loop of being told to install the server every time I try to add a library. I have installed the latest server on Windows 10. I uninstalled the prior server because it was loosing tracks.
I can’t figure out how to reply to the response. I click the reply button but nothing pops up that I can type in?
The computer I am trying to install Plex on is in my living room and is attached to the internet router via an ethernet cable. The 65" Television is connected to the same internet router via another ethernet cable.
I do not get any page that allows me to add a server to my devices page. I did have Plex on the same computer until yesterday when I uninstalled it.
Out of 198 shows only 13 were showing up no matter how many times I told it to scan the network libraries so I resorted to uninstall/reinstall to fix but now I can’t access my libraries at all. This is very frustrating.
In order to complete the setup you need to run the bundled version of Plex Web while being on the same network/subnet as your server.
If your Plex Media Server is installed on the same machine from which you’re working, open http://127.0.0.1:32400/web from a browser on that machine. Otherwise open http://[PMS IP address]:32400/web.
If you’re setting up a remote server you might need to create a RDP session or SSH tunnel to access your server locally.
