You do not have root access to the system?

@ChuckPa
of course, i am root (the Master) and full access to the system :wink:

Then bypass the sudo and type as if not there.

sudo elevates the non-privileged account to “Master” status. :rofl:

@ChuckPa thanks for your feedback
yes i did do the command without sudo

i also installed curl and some other stuff and all did work

Fun today the same command did work!

also to install the software worked fine
but how to start the webgui with no registration, the server is just in my LAN with only access to my NAS where all the film are stored

any help - idea?

PMS requires a web gui – even with a headless server.

SSH tunnel to it and use another machine as the GUI.

e.g.

  1. ssh -L 8888:127.0.0.1:32400 ip.addr.of.host
  2. Sign in and let sit idle until completed.
  3. In local browser open http://127.0.0.1:8888/web
  4. Magic occurs here

:slight_smile:

Merci @ChuckPa
the Webgui is there but send to plex.tv homepage! But on another browser it did work i suppose my cash have to be cleared

the last thing will be to mount my FreeNAS share on this plexVM :wink:

plex requires internet access to setup, which means your vm needs access to plex.tv

@TeknoJunky yes to access the internet and works, and no i hope i don’t need a account in plex.tv!
till now it looks like it works without login in!

Plex requires to be online to use your account.
Download of metadata (posters) and codecs requires a signed-in plex.tv account.
