I recently migrated my PMS back to linux/docker (Unraid) after being used on Windows for nearly a year. Of course, there were some issues initially, but anyone local (myself of a managed user) can now access the shared libraries without any problems. - However, at least one of my remote users (who was invited into the household within Plex) is unable to access anything after the migration (even after being removed and re-invited/re-added to the server).

At first, I thought it may have been a routing/firewall issue on my end, but I verified that remote access is functional and that the port mapping is correct. However, after testing that user directly from my home PC (using a chrome incognito window), I found that I was still unable to access the system (on the same network).

On Chrome, I would see (as the user) the whole “No Soup for You” page. - On mobile (official android app), you can’t even see any of the libraries or the server itself. Just the default pinned items, such as “Movies & TV on Plex”.

I also found in the console that the user is being authenticated as a guest whenever I attempt to refresh the “No Soup for You” page…

Any help would be appreciated.

I’m in the process of trying the linuxserver.io version of the Docker image, just to see if that will make any difference…

So, I’m now running PMS version 1.20.1.3213 using the linuxserver.io docker image, and it has made no impact on the issue.

Also found these errors in the console (which are related to each other), but am not confident is related to the remote access problem…

I somehow fixed the problem, but am not sure of what the exact step was (since I was trying multiple things at once). - Closing thread.
