Plex Server Unreachable

So after man hours of google and troubleshooting I finally stumbled on this thread…

I used this to access the web interface of the server which finally worked…

  1. Open the server, via the IP address (LAN or Loopback) NOT via app.plex.tv , and append ?secure=0 to the end of the url. e.g http://127.0.0.1:32400/web?secure=0

Now I can access the server normally using https://serverip:32400
