TOM_P88: WebServer (neither https nor http) isn't called. Any sort of firewall? Tried to reset the router?
tomiy1: totally different issue. Your HTTPS port is occupied by something else... track down the current "owner", shut it down and try PlexConnect again.

Is my settings.cfg looking correct? Just want to make sure that is all good before I continue and troubleshoot the https port problem.
In addition, any suggestions on how to find out what could be occupying 443? thanks again for your help!
WIKI -> https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Port-80-already-in-use -> "How to find out what program is using port 80:"
Should work the same with port 443.

This is all I can come up with via netstat...doesnt seem to help much = /
With or without PlexConnect running? Because it sure looks like SOMEONE is using that port.
IIS? Apache? I have no idea, what other application you have installed...

Here's the weird part, I checked netstat with AND without plexconnect running, and it shows the same thing.
I dont have apache for sure, is there a surefire way to check on IIS running? (i doubt its on but ill double check anyways)
thanks again

hi baa, just tried router reset- no joy. My pc ip address did change. standard window firewall which was disabled and Microsoft security essential there seems . Is there anything else i can upload to help identify the issue? cheers

How did you check that WITH PlexConnect running? According to your logs it shuts down as it is not able to claim port 443...

Not for me, sorry...
Anybody with Win experience (firewall, security essential, ...) able to help?
turned the firewall off completely it discovers the plex server on my ip but trailer still unavailable. should the dns responce be my ip adress as this is what it is in the logs

What I meant was: with running the python script and without! my bad..

Well, as the script wouldn't run with port 443 blocked... you got to figure out how to free it. Reboot and do the netstat in a fresh system? Is google able to answer - feed in your error (the 443 permission thing) together with the netstat result...
sorry meant plex media server is running and i pick up all media and chanels on iphone etc. Running the plexconnect.py through python program. so it shut down as can not claim port 443. why could this be?

is port 443 my only choice? Could i just change the settings cfg to use port 442?
also, did you happen to look at my settings file i pasted to see if theres anything incorrect in it?
thanks!
Do i still need to set my DNS on my AppleTV3 to my PC thats running Plex Media Server? (im using 0.9.8.6)
Does this look correct for my settings.cfg file? (I changed port_ssl to 442 and it seems like it now, but not sure if that will mess everything up) ....(I'm still getting the "Trailers is unavailable...Try again later" message.)

Baa already answered your question.
Plex connect fails because another program on your computer already uses the 443 port.
Plex connect needs the 443 port because that is the port Apple TV uses.
Find what other program using the 443 port on your computer and quit it. After that you can start plex connect again.
my plex is now working again. Not sure exactly what it was that fixed it. I downgraded firmware from 6.0 to 5.3 as there was supposedly problems also followed instruction for certificate from here: http://forums.plexap...g-the-ssl-cert/ instead of original.I think there was issues with my certificate so followed these instruction precisely Happy its finally working again thanks for everyone help :)
