Plex Media Scanner CLI tool issue: Always Abort

Plex Media Server

Running as ~plex?
Are the necessary environment variables set?

First guess is that PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR needs to be exported before running the command.

If that’s not it, please share what’s in the environment (env), the exact command being run, and the output.
