Server Version#: Version 1.26.2.5797  
Player Version#: Version 4.83.2  
hello,  
i have plexmediaserver on a devian install.  
When i do a “apt update” i have the 1.26.2.5797 version result and i can’t update.  
But if i manually look on the download page [https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/#plex-media-server](https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/#plex-media-server), with plex pass activate, that i own, i can see a more recent update avalaible.  
how wan i update on my server ? with a apt update i can’t.  
thanks

The beta / Plex Pass version isn’t available via the apt repository.  
You can download the latest package from the download page and manually install it using

> Run `sudo dpkg -i plexmediaserver_1.19.4.2935-79e214ead_amd64.deb` (replacing the last filename with the name of the package you downloaded)

see [https://support.plex.tv/articles/200288586-installation/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200288586-installation/)

# 

There’s a number of scripts in in the forum that’ll automate the update – however that’ll require your Plex Token (which is synonymous to your account/password – so be careful if you trust/understand a specific script before giving that away).

# 

**Edit:**  
Keep in mind the version in the apt repository is considered a stable release while the Plex Pass updates are usually considered “early access” or beta versions.
