I have been been running Plex Pass Media server for years and this is the first month i am having continued issues with it crashing. I have tried disabling hardware transcoding, i disabled all scheduled tasks, and it still crashes every day or other day.
I have updated windows server 2016 with latest updates, i am using built in windows defender with no other virus scanners, i stopped using plex media server service thinking that may be the issue, but it wasn’t.
I have also tried optimizing database and clean bundles, and it still happens
I have tried reinstalling, i have plenty of available ram, is anyone else having similar issues?
Also, i noticed its not doing automatic or partial scans anymore when i add media, i have to manually select scan library for it to add media.
Note : The next time you launch the application, the crash logs will be uploaded for aggregate analysis of crashes and will then be removed. Therefore, please retrieve the crash log prior to launching Plex Media Server again .
I’m also observing some crashes on both my windows and qnap servers. Attaching logs for review.
I’ve since reverted to previous version (1.16.2.1321-ad17d5f9e).
Ok, i had to do alot of work to get my plex working.
First I uninstalled, then reinstalled the non-beta 1.16.2.1321.
Then i had major issues getting my HDhomerun to show up in dvr, so then i had to uninstall then, then reinstall a previous version 1.16.0.1226, remove my tuner/dvr, then reinstall 1.16.2.1321 so my hdhomrun tuner will be recognized again.
The state of plex is really off, i have never seen so many issues with a public build, i am a devote plex pass subscriber from the beginning.
They need to take a break from adding new features and fix the existing ones they have,
