I am currently dealing with some picture problems on my server and I do not know why is this happening. Just the last shows I am adding to my server do not show the main picture.
example:
I have deleted the library and created it again to see if that could solve the problem, and now it became worst, even more shows are not showing. I have no clue what is happening here:
Thank you for the logs and thank you for pinging me.
I found one problem which needs to be addressed right away. I don’t know why it happened but it looks like a different username or different permissions were set in your metadata directory.
There are several places where this is happening.
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Media/localhost/b/9e92d0b0ea74d6b47992a2c3b18e1b35f24341f.bundle/Contents/Subtitle Contributions'
To fix this, and assuming user plex:plex is how you run Plex, the commands are:
sudo sh
systemctl stop plexmediaserver
chown -R plex:plex /var/lib/plexmediaserver
find /var/llib/plexmediaserver -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find /var/lib/plexmediaserver -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
systemctl start plexmediaserver
These commands:
Open a root privileged command shell.
Stop Plex
Change the ownership to plex:plex . Edit this if you customized your configuration to another username
Finds all directories and makes them 755 permission
Finds all files and makes them 644 permission
Starts Plex
With this done, “Refresh all metadata” for those which are causing problems.
If this doesn’t correct it, we will clear the cache and force it to refresh again.
Wow, it seems it worked, but yeah really weird on why the permissions on that folder changed, I do not know if maybe because of an update of plex, really no idea on why that hapenned.
Never mind.
That was the weirdest one I’ve seen in a long time.
It acted as if something when dancing around your metadata as root. (I can’t tell without actually seeing it) but that forced it back to normal.
