I’m trying to run the linuxserver.io Plex image on an Intel NUC. Per that project’s instructions, I have created a docker-compose.yml file that looks like this:
version: "2.1"
services:
plex:
image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/plex
container_name: plex
network_mode: host
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- VERSION=docker
- PLEX_CLAIM=claim-xxxxxxxxxxx
volumes:
- /mnt/media/plex:/config
- /mnt/media/Movies:/movies
restart: unless-stopped
When I run this file with sudo docker-compose up, I get the following logs from the container:

I’ve pruned that a little to remove duplicates of the stack trace - they’re all the same, and one appears before each of the No such file or directory errors at the end of the file. I have confirmed that these files are indeed missing.
If I grep the /config/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs/Plex\ Media\ Server.log file for errors, I get the following:

None of that looks particularly healthy, and if I navigate to the web ui, I get to the Server Setup page, but it has an error message on it that says “A problem has been detected with a core component of Plex Media Server” and directs me to these forums.
It should be noted that the /mnt/media/plex directory that I’m mounting to /config is empty when I start the container, so this is a fresh install using the docker-compose.yml configuration that is in the docs.
My setup details:
$ sudo lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04

Any tips?
