Server Version#: 1.26.2.5797-7000 Player Version#: 8.3 I have been using Plex for years for tv and movies and no problems. My music has been streamed through Synology Audio Station but I decided to give Plex a go for it. My music is correctly labeled (volume/music/artist name/album/track) but whe…

I fixed it thank you, was a deeply buried permissions check box that was overlooked. Thanks for the help.

Please scan the library again and get me the server logs.

Here you go, many thanks Plex Media Server Logs_2022-05-29_12-07-48.zip (4.1 MB)

May 29, 2022 12:07:32.505 [0x7f05a9645b38] ERROR - Failed to create iterator to “/volume1/music”: Permission denied You have a permission issue with that music folder. Or did you type the folder incorrectly? Above you said it was “volume” but your library is looking for “volume1”.

Sorry that was just a typo from me, it is Volume1 as that is the only volume I can select when adding a library. I’ve checked the permissions folder for my music and it’s the same as for tv and movies yet doesn’t seem to want to scan. Is there anything else I’m missing? [image] [image] Thanks
