Plexmediaserver_plexpass does not exist in /etc/rc.d or the local startup

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices

The package name is plexmediaserver-plexpass. The service name is plexmediaserver_plexpass. I don’t know why they did this but, use those values accordingly.

Also I’ve updated the install script, I’ve only tested it in iocage jail, if someone with an older style jail can test it I’d appreciate it. It shouldn’t need to be edited as it finds all of the paths. One thing I’m not sure of is on the older jails, where is your plex installed for each version? Is standard in /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver and the plexpass in /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver-plexpass? If this is true, and the service names are still different, plexmediaserver and also plexmediaserver_plexpass respectively, then my updated script will work.

It pulls auth automatically you don’t need to supply your login/pw creds. It uses the API and your server’s authtoken from the preferences file.

It also removed the dependency on wget and perl5.

Located here.

fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jbeez/PMS_Updater/TokenAuth/PMS_Updater.sh && chmod 700 ./PMS_Updater.sh

edit the options at the top of the file as you see fit.

So what does this mean? Do we need to convert the jail, or do we need to change a setting in rc.d?

I am not sure if this helps anyone. However I ran into this issue trying to upgrade from 1.12 > 1.14 > 1.16 after FreeNas took a major update. I followed this guy james and just deleted the old Legacy jail and Plugin.

Cheers mate, Best of all it updates also! so no need to sch > sudo bash whatever…

My recommendation is to do this with all your plugins, as all the Legacy plugins are a pain in the ■■■■!

I don’t want to tinker, I just want it to work & Freenas have worked really hard on the kinks for a better experience.

Setting up an LACP Lagg is also a lot easier!!
