Server Version#:1.41.5.9522-a96edc606
Player Version#:n/a
I already have a plex server running (name: nas03)on a QNAP running and installed another one on a fresh installed Ubuntu 24.04.02 Server.
When I access the web interface of the newly installed server the first time, it is asking me for my account credentials. After I logged on to the new server using my existing account, I can only access and configure the existing server. The fresh installed server is not in the list of known devices.
Also, when I log on, using a managed account, I still see an old and already removed server, (name: mediaserver) which I cannot delete for some reasons.
I rebooted the server and reinstalled the plexmediaserver a few times - one time as the snap version, other times also from the plex repository.
each time after I removed plexmediaserver, I also removed the directory "/var/lib/plexmediaserver "
Please ignore the previews answer, it was made by a different account is hidden at the moment.
The old server is vanished, thank you for this.
I run the script and claimed the system. Now it shows up on the left corner, however, when I try to configure the system, I get the message that I am not autohorized for this system.
I checked the preferences.xml, but it has the correct entries.
I tried it on four different client machines, one of them I never logged on using my private accounts or connected to plex in any ways.
I tried edge, chrome, firefox - all in private mode.
I tried using the private IP, the public IP that had a port forwarding on 32400 on the firewall, and the public name.
I installed plex from the windows app store.
All of the above resulted in the same unauthorized.
I logged on using the plex app on my iPhone - it says “not connected”
PMS is making so many consecutive requests that Plex.tv has throttled it

The easy solution here is to leave PMS stopped for 1 hour
then start and claim it.

Yes, its an ESX guest. Its connected to a virtual switch on an internal virtual LAN which is connected to an OPNSense. Port 32400 is forwarded to the guest.
Answered you PM. I am mentioning it here, as I remember you have stated somewhere that you should be informed in the forum if someone has been sending you a PM.
