I have had my unraid setup with my plex server up and running for near 2 years now without much of a hickup.
As of this last week though, the server has been crashing every day, multiple times per day.
I can simply restart the docker and all is well, for a short time.
I cant seem to track down what the cause of this is and Im hoping for some help.
Im running Unraid 6.5.0 and PMS Version 1.12.2.4929
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(SOLVED)
Seems the issue was Unraid 6.5.0.
After upgrading to the latest RC for unraid the issue has resolved itself.
I too am having the exact same issue! Hopefully someone can chime in and give us some help with this issue.
What devices are you using the stream plex from your server?

I mainly use the Web Client here at my work PC.
But there are several others with access and they range from Android TV, Roku, Firetv, iPhone, ect.
I have switched over from using the Binhex- PlexPass docker to the official one offered by Plex INC.
The issue is still present.
Sometimes it can go for hours without issue, other times the server will not last for more than 30 minutes.
No difference in usage from what I can tell.
Im really not sure what is causing this issue, and could really use a hand.
If this is not the correct sub-forum to post for assistance, please let me know where I should.

I just read elsewhere on here that this might be a linux issue that showed up in Unraid 6.5.0.
Its suggested to install one of the RC releases, where its supposed to be fixed.
I am installing 6.5.1 rc5 right now, to see if this resolves it.
If you want to give it a try yourself, open your UnRaid UI and go to Tools > Update OS
Set the Unraid Server OS branch to Next.
It should now show the 6.5.1 rc5 update.
Install and restart your server.

I have had pretty good luck with mine lately. I changed from the beta release of plex to the public release, but that is my only change so far. If I keep having issues I will try switching to an RC release of Unraid.
This was driving me batty, figuring there were library issues or perhaps the Hello Hue plugin causing problems. Upgraded to 6.5.1rc6 and so far so good!
Thanks for the info, I have the same issue and presumed it was Plex not unRAID as all other dockers seemed fine. I will try the suggested unRAID update and hopefully that sorts it. Cheers
