After setting up a Plex server using docker-compose, I’m unable to reach the server. According to my log below, I think the problem is “Critical: libusb\_init failed” however, after looking online, it seems it’s [not really an issue](https://forums.plex.tv/t/critical-libusb-init-failed/722159). I also tried without: ```auto - /dev/dri:/dev/dri ``` to no success Logs: ```auto [s6-init] making user provided files available at /var/run/s6/etc...exited 0.

Found the issue. My network\_mode was set to “bridge” instead of “host”. Changed that, and now everything works fine. “Critical: libusb\_init failed” is still showing, but doesn’t impact my server. ---
