no PMS Found

so I've tried to run the plexconnect.py and get an answer saying no PMS found here are my outputs and setting.cfg

I'm fairly new with this so any help would be appreciated

 

[PlexConnect]
logpath = .
enable_dnsserver = True
ip_webserver = 0.0.0.0
prevent_atv_update = True
enable_plexconnect_autodetect = True
port_pms = 32400
port_webserver = 80
ip_plexconnect = 0.0.0.0
certfile = ./assets/certificates/trailers.pem
ip_dnsmaster = 8.8.8.8
loglevel = Normal
ip_pms = 192.168.178.10
enable_plexgdm = True
port_ssl = 443

Confirm that the PMS is running and that you can access it via another device. Make sure only one instance of the python code is running. If you've done all that (and I'm sure you have) try a reboot and checking the PMS settings to see if there are any irregularities and see if that doesn't clear it up. I've gotten this randomly in the past but a reboot usually cleared things up.

Settings.cfg you posted has this



ip_pms = 192.168.178.10


Is that really the ip of your PMS? As your ATV is on 192.168.0.25 and your plexconnect is on 192.168.0.14. Maybe it’s just the default in the cfg file.

As "enable_plexgdm = True" the default ip_pms doesn't matter...

change certfile = ./assets/certificates/trailers.pem to the absolute path. This is what I had to do to get it working for me in ubuntu

so my file looks like this

certfile = /home/username/Servers/PlexConnect//assets/certificates/trailers.pem

On the other hand dissregard what I just said.

When looking on your logfile I see that

21:58:16 PlexGDM: No servers discovered
21:58:16 XMLConverter: PlexGDM - no PMS found
So it ain't finding any server. Try dissable GDM in the settingsfile by change it to False and then change
ip_pms = 192.168.178.10 to the ipnumber of your PMS machine.
