PMS as a Container - Does not run setup/initialization

I’m building a new media server using Containers on CentOS 7 on a headless server using steps here: https://www-smarthomebeginner-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.smarthomebeginner.com/docker-home-media-server-2018-basic/amp/?usqp=mq331AQCKAE%3D&amp_js_v=0.1#Setup_Environmental_Variables_for_Docker

When i connect to from my windows PC to http://192.168.x.x:32400 i get logged in, but I do NOT get an option to setup PMS, nor do I get a initial setup option. I’ve tried the linuxserver image too with the same result. i’ve tried a new claim code from a different email and got the same result.

Help is appreciated.

Run these commands on the server and then retry the browser from your PC http://ipofserver:32400/web

sudo systemctl stop firewalld
sudo setenforce 0

Thanks Tiebeirius.
Disabling the Firewalld did give me the option to run the setup.

Now I cannot “claim server” so I can enable “remote server”. I click the “claim” button and it just spins and times out.

Thanks.

Why Centos, it is more difficult for a new user.

The PLEX_CLAIM takes the place of claiming. When you go to https://app.plex.tv/web , do you see a server listed?

If you are just starting let me point you to another project that at least includes instructions for Centos: https://dockstarter.com/
