My plex instance keeps going unhealthy and unresponsive, and only restarting fixes it for a short while, sometimes an hour, sometimes a day. I’m trying to get to the bottom of whats causing this issue.
Latest logs uploaded below, finishing just before the server went unresponsive.

Turn off VERBOSE logging and restart your server.
You have some stale tuner and program information in your database. I would delete the DVR and recreate then track down the 3 scheduled football recordings that still are trying to access the Rovi guide and delete them.
Thats interesting because I delrted the DVR a while ago and havent reset it up as i have no interest in using the dvr features anymore.
How would i delete the football recording withiut setting up dvr again as i no longer have a dvr device?
I’m seeing similar regular crashes lately - initially I only noticed it via the web client, but have since traced it more to opening up various smart playlists that I have - which seem to trigger the server to crash.
This happens both from the web app, and from PlexAmp, and the normal iOS Plex server.

You would have to create the DVR with one tuner temporarily in order to delete all the scheduled recordings, then delete the DVR. The only other way is to stop plex and manually delete the data in the DB.
Make sure you have these scheduled tasks turned on:
@taliosnz - your database is responding very slowly, do you have all the above scheduled tasks turned on?
If the database backups are not occurring every 3 days then you need to run a database repair. Slightly more complex because you are running in a docker. It would probably be easier to do it outside of docker.
Hrm - I’m not running docker - just the QNAP Packages. I do have backups running in docker - all the scheduled tasks are running except “Update all libraries during maintenance”.
There is a rather large library there tho - maybe I’m maxing out the poor wee QNAP. Think I may need to upgrade the RAM in there.
DB backups run every 3 days.
With that in mind however - that’s given me some areas to check and it looks like I’m also monitoring a USB mounted drive which may be tripping things up there.
And some of the Smart Playlists I have are quite… large to calculate. Think I might start killing off some of them actually.
I see the ‘busy database’ log entries now - so will keep an eye out for them.
Cheers!
