Server Version#: 1.57.1.3358-5fd2a504 Player Version#: 1.57.1.3358-5fd2a504 Hi I have the following problem I have to give the Plex server a different path under settings transcoder temp folder where it should cache the files because I don’t have enough GB free on the main drive. I do that an…

Let’s get a few things sorted to reduce confusion. I have NO reference to 1.57.1 server anywhere. I do have reference for PMS 1.58.1 (current version) of the Plex Player app. This makes sense now. 1.58.1.3380-ea159c52 November 23, 2022 Your server version, from the server logs, is actually, …

gladly thank you I would like to have the temp folder on the following path /mp1/share/temp this is on the internal LVM there is enough space It is best to have all the database transcoders there, etc.

Quick question: Given this is local to the host, would you like to put all of PMS there as well ? example: /mp1/share/plexmediaserver (would result in ‘/mp1/share/plexmediaserver/Plex Media Server/’ ) We can get both of these done at the same time if you wish.

Not quite: I think you copied me too literally. my fault. The contents of the override.conf should be exactly: [Service] Environment="PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR=/mp1/share/plexmediaserver" EDIT: OK… Nano shows better. Stay in nano… we have more to do:

While in nano, we’re going to add the new variable to tell PMS which directory to use for TEMP In override.conf, add Environment="TMP=/mp1/share/plexmediaserver/tmp" Save Now mkdir /mp1/share/plexmediaserver/tmp chown plex:plex /mp1/share/plexmediaserver/tmp
