I just started using plex a few days ago. Everything has been going well but today it stopped working. I’ll click to open the plex server and it bring me to a tab in my browser as usual but it’ll just be a blank page and fail to load. When I launch from plex.tv it says “server is unavailable”. Why does the server become unavailable sometimes and how am I supposed to fix it when it does?
I’ve pretty much the same issue but I have been using Plex for a couple years. It’s on a Win 7 32 bit system. I’ve now lost the ability to load plex or open its’ web page on my server itself. I can still load recordings to the monitored folders and my chromebook “client”, which can open the app, sees the new videos.
I noticed the problem a couple of weeks ago when I opened plex on my chromebook and it said that there was a new update for my server. I think I said to download it. Then I received a message about needing direct access to the server so I could respond to any needed prompts. I couldn’t get plex to open on the server itself.
Right now the client is prompting me to download Version 1.15.2.793 on my server. Should I download that as well (maybe it’s the same one I already downloaded but it’s not registering as downloaded and installed.
I have all sorts of access to things through the client. What should I check for. Also, I just bought the lifetime plexpass as it just went on sale. The purchase was just this past week, well after the issue.
Please help,

Does signing in again on the web app help at all?
