we have this: 24 GB free
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 52G 25G 24G 52% /
You only need: 3GB
du -ms /var/lib/plexmediaserver

Something is not right.
Being remote as I am, there’s nothing I can do either.
It won’t even let you write to the /home/plexdata directory.
Did you just get updates and not reboot?
Nope I have rebooted a few times… Not sure what changed that made it stopped working either as the computer is only used for plex and usually doesn’t even have a monitor plugged in
Can you boot the liveCD / LiveUSB and have it force fsck on /dev/sda1 ?
Something is just plain wrong there
I’ll try that tomorrow and let you know the outcome… Thanks for all your help so far!
I get the following back:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck /dev/sda1
fsck from util-linux 2.27.1
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
/dev/sda1: clean, 3407843/3407872 files, 6421172/13616896 blocks
Having done that,
Still unable to: “mkdir /home/plexdata” ? and/or add anything to that file system?
Now it takes longer to boot up Ubuntu and when I go to login it resets
That is something with Ubuntu itself and beyond the reach of what I can help with
The best I can recommend is:
That’s what I was thinking… Is there a way to backup my plex settings?
Yes. Instead of making the tar file to the HD like we did last night, write it to a thumb drive or network share.
Back in business… thanks so much for your help! You have helped me in the past as well and you have to be by far the best support I have ever received with anything.
