PMS 1.29.2.6334 Mac Install Fails on 10.14.6

Plex Media Server Plex Pass Betas

This issue persists in the latest beta 1.30.0.6442, unable to Friendly Name.
The MacOS fixes in the new beta solved the unsigned application popup, thanks.

don’t click that arrow :slight_smile:

Here are the logs from todays test against 1.30.0.6442
Plex Media Server Logs-2022-11-25_10-31-20.zip (114.2 KB)

  1. I double click the Application.
  2. It’s signed and says Apple checked it for malicious software. I click Open.
  3. At the Plex Sign-in screen I use my email, pass, and 2FA code.
  4. I’m redirected to app.plex.tv for the setup and see my Plex Home choose User screen.
  5. I choose my user and then I enter my PIN.
  6. I get an endless spinner where it says Initializing Plex Media Server, but it’s clear the URL is not the local URL anyway. So it’s never going to work, and doesn’t if I click in and hit enter.
  7. The correct method as usual is to enter http://127.0.0.1:32400/web in the same tab that’s already signed in, and that will make setup start,
  8. where I get stuck at Friendly Naming.

And if I run PMS from the Terminal I see this output

Thank you all!

EDIT 1: the clip shows me waiting at Initializing Plex Media Server for a few seconds, but it was much longer. I cut about a minute out of the video there. I’ve let it sit for as long as 5min. I just don’t think it was doing anything, like previous installs have taught me.
