I tried adding a new album and running a library scan but plex did not detect any new music. When browsing by folder, Plex sees the folders but no music file.

If I delete a folder, and run a library scan, the album, song, or movie is not removed from the library. If I add something new and run a scan, plex is not detecting or seeing it.

Database became corrupted. Running the plex DBRepair.sh script fixed the issues.
