Server Version#:DS 1813+  
Player Version#:1.41.9.9961  
I know I have a very old Synology server. It was working well though until I upgraded to DSM7  
I followed the instructions, allowing the internal permissions for the Plex folder and my media folders.  
It runs for a few seconds then says “Manually Stopped”  
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, restarted server ect.

I am a tech newbie, so be slow with me please 🙂

I think I have fixed it … corrupt DB, renamed an older pair and it seems to be working now.
