Plex Server can't upgrade or install - Segmentation Fault

Server Version#: 1.23.4.4805
Player Version#:

I have a TS-453 (Intel Celeron CPU). Upgrades have been fine, until recently.

The logs in this case are useless. All they say is that it can’t be installed because the server is not up, but the reason the server is not up is because this version of Plex stops the install by stopping the server.

So, I tried another approach:
I copied the server software into a directory and from the CLI, did a chmod +x and then tried to install that way:

[/share/homes] # chmod +x PlexMediaServer-1.25.3.5385-f05b712b6-x86_64.qpkg
[/share/homes] # ./PlexMediaServer-1.25.3.5385-f05b712b6-x86_64.qpkg

Installation Abort.

Then I rebooted the QNAP, and re-did the install. Now I got this error:

[/share/homes] # ./PlexMediaServer-1.25.3.5385-f05b712b6-x86_64.qpkg

PlexMediaServer 1.25.3 is already installed. Setup will now perform package upgrading.
Firmware check is fine.
Plex Media Server hasn’t been enabled or started…
Link service start/stop script: plex.sh

So, then I was able to get qpkg of 1.23.4.4805, and then that installed. But is there a problem with 1.25.3.5385?

I had upgraded to 1.24, but was getting transcoding errors after upgrading (in late November of last year), which had never happened before, and I thought that maybe 1.25.3.5385 might have a fix for those errors…but that didn’t work out, obviously.

There does appear to be something wrong with 1.25.3.5385

I have not had opportunity to test it until now and find

Install your previous version on top of this to downgrade

I checked the build logs and my change for plex.sh is not yet included.

This is something new, a build fault or QTS change
