Plex Media Server does'nt work after installation

Hello, I installed successfully Plex-Media-Server in my gentoo (stable release).

I’m trying to initiate the daemon ‘/etc/init.d/plex-media-server restart’ but the process dropped after 2-3 seconds.

I got the below error:

gentoo /var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs #

I have already tried to disable IPv6 in Preferences.xml without any luck.

Note that I don’t use the port 3400 in any other service.

gentoo ~ # netstat -patune | grep 32400
gentoo ~ # 

I have noticed that if I add OldestPreviousVersion=“legacy” to Preferences.xml, the deamon is remaining alive but I still not be able to connect in localhost:32400/web in order to configure plex.

Any ideas?
thank you in advance.

Fixed by upgrading kernel to 5.2.9. Seems to be a network issue in 4.19.66!
