So trying to get into the web app I get "This version of the web app requires Plex Media Server 1.3.0 or higher. "

It shows my Windows server as being an “out of date server”.

My Windows server shows that it’s Version 0.9.9.14.

I just uninstalled and reinstalled from the website. Why aren’t I getting the latest version of the server?

That site. Strange… The name of the .exe I get is “PlexMediaServer-1.15.3.876-ad6e39743-x86”. Don’t understand why I don’t seem to be getting the right version of the server. I’m going to uninstall/install again.

Oh man. I feel really stupid. I had an old version of the installer hanging around that I was accidentally selecting.

Sorry for the dumb question.
