When I right click on plex icon and say open plex it brings me to the webpage that says

Hmmm…can’t reach this page
try this

I have tried reinstalling and restarting to no avail. What is going on? my server has been offline and I don’t know how to fix this??

I am using windows 10
latest plex version

Neither do we sadly, since you never stated the OS of your server :wink:

Please provide more info, as well as details about when this happened, like after an upgrade etc.
Also if you have some version info as well, it’ll be great, and if you at the same time could provide logs, it would be very helpful for the community in order to help you

i am unable to get logs

Still can’t help, without you start by telling us what OS your server is running!

And DETAILS!!!

I did I updated my original post. Also I am in the windows 10 fast track updates.

Please don’t in the future, unless you post you did so :wink:

You’ll find them in:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Plex Media Server\Logs

And not a windows dude myself, but re-tagged your post, so people running that OS might find it

using Windows 10 Build 18898.1000

Try for a short test, and disable your firewall, then restart PMS

This also arises when another program is using either tcp port 32400 or 32401. Make sure both of these tcp ports are not in use by other applications

netstat -a -b -n > netstat.txt in elevated command line window would show what application is using port 32400 or 32401

that command did not work for me

what error ?
Did you run it in an elevated command line window?

Start / Run / cmd - right click on Command Prompt and select Run As Administrator

For the output file, put a path for the file

eg
`netstat -a -b -n > “%localappdata%\netstat.txt”
