PMS MacOS v 1.41.2.9092 crashes when client= PlexHTPC on MacOS

Server Version#: 1.41.2.9092 (MacOS)
Player Version#:Plex HTPC (MacOS) v.1.67.1.233-0ab7ab17

Please let me know which logs would be required in order to identify the issue.

The same issue happens to me on HTPC on Windows. Server is Ubuntu 22.04.1

Seems it’s across multiple platforms.

Happens for me. Server is Ubuntu 24.04.1. Multiple Clients not just HTPC. Whole server goes down for everyone

Here are logs that show its running something and then it looks like the DB dies and all I get after that is the SLOW QUERY lines

I’m seeing the same issue.
Server is unraid with docker.

I reproduced this with Plex HTPC 1.63.1.163-53e43905 on Windows 10 against PMS 1.41.2.9092, linuxserver docker, unraid 6.12.10, kernel 6.1.79

Didn’t even need to play media to trigger it, just going into a pre-play screen on a piece of media triggered it.

dmesg reports

PMS ReqHandler[17310]: segfault at 10 ip 00001554d413a424 sp 00001554c91f70b0 error 4 in Plex Media Server[1554d382d000+d41000] likely on CPU 2 (core 2, socket 0)
Code: 0c 2a ff 48 8d bd 10 ff ff ff 41 b8 08 00 00 00 31 f6 48 c7 c2 ff ff ff ff e8 08 e9 42 00 85 c0 75 6d 49 8b 45 50 48 8b 40 60 <83> 78 10 01 75 5f 48 8d 35 79 e7 27 ff 48 8d 9d d0 fc ff ff 48 89

It’s only doing it for Plex HTPC on windows for me but it crashes PMS consistently and immediately. Only thing I can watch is on the deck. If even so much as attempt to look anywhere else it crashes within a second.

same here, server running on arch linux and plex htpc clients
had to rollback

Just verified this happens when accessing from a Vizio TV

Ok for me it’s the Invalid fields errors that I get that crashes the server. Posted in my logs above

Hi,

Will plex admins read this thread and correct this in an update soon?
Has any of you experience posting issues?

Thank you and best

Hi,

solved with the latest beta. (at least for me)
Thank you very much!

Best regards :slight_smile:
