Plex Server Lost After Updating Location of Media

Plex Media Server

I have a Zimacube every time i go near plex settings I lose my server, I have a static ip plus on my router I have set the Zimacube address (Due to the last number of the ip address changing every time the Zimacube lost connection to the network). I can’t remember if i did this before or after I create this plex server so it might be stuck on a different IP address within my network, i tried to change the ip address on the router for the Zimacube back to the last ip address I had but the router wouldn’t let me change it I’ve looked through plex info pages didn’t really help. Any help to find this server attached would be appreciated.

This should only be a problem if you configured the static IP on the machine itself (instead of letting your router assign one).

If the IP bands/subnets don’t match, Plex will consider your connection to the server as remote. This can be a problem if you haven’t claimed your server.

You should be able to delete the link of a network adapter to an ip address from the machine‘s operating system.

ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0

Where eth0 is the name of your network adapter.

Edit: I had missed you setup is inna docker container… in that case the IP address might also be hard-coded in the container compose file.
