Server Version#: 1.30.1.6497-5fc2e0894
Player Version#: All
I manage multiple plex servers. I am using a custom PKCS #12 certificate & domain for all of them. It is working fine to connect to all servers using the domain in the custom certificate.
I have been seeing for years, error flood periodically in the logs because of CERT/OCSP & rate limiting on all servers. I am guessing this is related to the automatic letsencrypt certificates, which I am not using and will not need ever.
It’s really annoying trying to debug real issues in the logs, because the logs are always flooded with these messages. It also seems, in unusually many cases when plex media server is acting up, these messages are also appearing alot. I would like to permanently disable plex using & fetching letsencrypt certificates, since I’m using other. Is there any way to do that ?
Here are some examples of logs:
