“V2” has been reset.

Restart the server

67

I’m all set, thank you!

@ChuckPa @OttoKerner @BigWheel Some other sources mentioned that leaving the server off for a bit and restarting could work around the 429’s, but mine is still failing after that with “ERROR - CERT: Error acquiring new certificate: Failed to retrieve cert from plex.tv: 429”. Can you help?

69

@dilledille done

you may need to restart server

70

could you please reset mine as well

71

Hello, could please you reset mine ?

72

@ReaperSPTN2109 @lucasarnaud

Your certificates are valid.

Have you restarted the server ?

Please report back if still not functioning

I lost remote access to my Plex Server back in November. I have confirmed there is no port forward or double-NAT issue. Looking through the logs, I see certificate errors every time I restart the server.

ERROR - CERT. Error acquiring new certificate: Failed to upload CSR: 429

@ChuckPa or @BigWheel, can you please reset the cert for my server?

@TimJC

Cert reset. Restart PMS

75

Thank you. That seems to have fixed it.

Hello, I’ve been having invalid certificate and remote access issues. Will you please look at my account to see if my certificate needs to be reset? At the moment, I can access Prologue (iOS) remotely but not the Plex app.

[mod edit: please stop and restart your Plex server]

77

Hello! I think I have a similar issue - I get:

write:errno=54
unable to load certificate

when i try to load the cert via open_ssl. Can you reset my cert please? thanks!

78

Your Plex certificate is ok.
Are you trying to use your own certificate?

Does the P12 contain the CA, Key, and Cert ?

79

hi, im having same issue also. could you kindly reset my certificate too please?

[mod edit: Done. Please stop and restart your Plex server.]

Hi, I think I’m having the cert issue as well
Have stopped PMS and will try in 10-15 min to make sure it’s not me

81

Unfortunately, waiting about 45 min between stop and start of service did not solve the cert issue
