Server Version#: 1.32.5.7349  
I performed an upgrade of my system and my server no longer loads. If I do: journalctl -b -e  
I get the following:

```auto
Aug 01 12:13:30 jupiter systemd[1]: Starting Plex Media Server...

Aug 01 12:13:36 jupiter systemd[1]: Stopped Plex Media Server.

```

Noting this had something do do with the SQLite db, I followed the steps to repair a corrupted database. The integrity check said my db was OK but doing a repair anyway didn’t help. I did notice that the instructions stated that the database was located in \<PLEX\_PATH\> /Plug-in Support/Databases. My database wasn’t there but in \<PLEX\_PATH\>/Resources. At this point, I made a backup copy of my db and deleted the original. I get the same error as above and no new db was created.

Any suggestions on how to proceed with this? Thanks!
