Plex media server error after server update

Server Version#:
Player Version#:

I downloaded the plex media server on my desktop and have been using it for over a year without issues until yesterday when I saw there was a server update nd downloaded and installed it. The problem is after installation the server could not reestablish a connect even after I hit retry connection a few times. I then closed the browser nd restarted the pc and when I went to the PMS desktop app shortcut nd double clicked on it like I normally do it gave me a pop up box notification with an error nd when I go to my history to open it on the browser I can’t access the site. The drive the server is connected to is on the pc and the internet connection is fine so I don’t know what the problem is. Can anyone assist please? Below are screenshots as well the logs.

Your logs show you are running v1.23.2.4656. Where di you get this? That version had a bad bug and we revoked that version. You should not have gotten that as an update?

Manually install a later version and see if that helps.

Could you tell me how to manually install a later version please?

Download from Media Server Downloads | Plex Media Server for Windows, Mac, Linux, FreeBSD and More and just run the file. As long as you are installing a newer version, it should just work. If you want to install an older version, you need to uninstall Plex Media Server first. Uninstalling will not remove your setup.
