Check your free hard drive space.
see https://support.plex.tv/articles/202485658-restore-a-database-backed-up-via-scheduled-tasks/
If the above was successful, verify that your database is not damaged:
- activate debug logging (not ‘verbose’!)
- quit Plex Server
- wait 1 minute
- start Plex Server
- wait 5 minutes
- fetch log files and attach them here
Or inspect them yourself. Take a look at the Plex Media Server.log file and seek for messages about database corrupt or malformed.
If you find these, you may have to repair your database.
