Plex stability question

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices

Hello,
I have huge Plex server stability problems on Synology NAS DS718+ (Intel Celeron J3455).

I tried to use Plex about 2 years ago. The experience was very negative. because I even couldn’t scan my libraries. Plex constantly crashed, or (when it worked) it gave me always the same message: “There was an unexpected error loading this library”.

So I deinstalled it and forgot about Plex for 2 years.
Recently I decided to try again. But surprisingly - nothing changed. It constantly crashes and give exactly the same error. Never seen it worked properly.

There is example: I added photo library and triggered manual scan, because Plex didn’t want to scan it automatically. In one day I opened my NAS and see that Plex is not running (crashed). So I rebooted NAS and executed plex manually. After running Plex I see the message: “There was an unexpected error running Dashboard”. Clicking on any library gives: “There was an unexpected error loading this library”.
I thought my system is power enough to run Plex? 4Gb Ram, Celeron J3455, 5Tb free space…)
So why Plex is not working at all?

Ok. Looks like scanning is done. It still crashes once per day…
And another problem: why 80% of photo folders are without poster? Looks really strange that some folders have pictures but most of them - not. If I try to add poster manually - I always get the error: “there was an error uploading this artwork · [try again]”.
Absolutely unusable system.

How about some log files please? (Debug ON, Verbose OFF)

We can’t help if we don’t know what you’re seeing.
