I’m not using mint but I use cinnamon desktop as well.  
Same error on latest debian jessie with this build [https://github.com/RasPlex/OpenPHT/releases/download/v1.6.2.123-e23a7eef/openpht\_1.6.2.123-e23a7eef-jessie\_amd64.deb](https://github.com/RasPlex/OpenPHT/releases/download/v1.6.2.123-e23a7eef/openpht_1.6.2.123-e23a7eef-jessie_amd64.deb)  
Any suggestions?

It’s not possible to help without a log, you can find it here :

```auto
~/.plexht/temp/plexhometheater.log

```

The plexhometheater “segfault” line from the command “dmesg” (or logfiles) would also be helpful, e.g. after a crash enter:

```auto
dmesg | grep -i plex

```

Thank you very much bkury.

Now that I found the log I was able to fix the issue myself.  
I turns out that libcurl was missing - so I installed libcurl4-openssl-dev and it’s working fine 😃
