No Agents

No Agents Showing up

Plex Version is 9.12.19

Web Version is 2.4.23

I have no idea why I am not getting any agents

also I have trend micro for a Virus Protection

I have tried Uninstalling and reinstalling all version since I first started using plex

This error is normally a firewall issue

URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it>

Check that there is an inbound rule :
Protocol: TCP
Local Port : 32400
Remote Port : Any
Remote IP: Any
Action: Allow
Scope: All Networks

This is a port rule independent of any firewall rule for the program files

I Do have the inbound rule but still only showing Home Movies also tried to reinstall.

need to see the logs - server log and PMS Plugin Logs after restart

Here you go

missed it.

same issue still

server is getting timeouts on requests to the python plexscripthost bundles processes that got started

eg for first one - it was started 3 minutes earlier

Normally such errors are to do with anti-virus / security / proxy / anti-malware software. what do you have running/configured?

The firewall should also have exceptions for the .exe files

C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\PlexScriptHost.exe

and the other exe files

The server log shows this error at the start - but lately i have come across a lot of these - so i am not sure if it is important still

you did mention Trend Micro anti virus - see if it has exceptions that need to be added to the configuration

Trend Micro but I did turn it off to see if that fixed the issue and did not only other thing is windows firewall. Trend micro I did put every .exe in the exceptions list.

you could try uninstalling trend micro and then just have the windows firewall with:

  • Exception rules for the exe files (all ports / all networks - just programs listed)
  • Inbound rule for tcp local port 32400 (no programs specified)

is this you here as well? forum user aworfolk
