Plex server crashes frequently, before and after latest upgrade/version. Plex icon disappears from the system tray when crash occurs – sometimes during playing on client, other times during media scans, or no activity. Server will run sometimes for 1-2 days before crashing and other times for only 10-30 minutes, but it will crash eventually. Unable to determine why this is occurring so often, so really need help in figuring this out.

Your logs don’t show a crash. Are you clearing the logs folder before restarting PMS? I need to see the logs from when it crashed, before you restart PMS. Getting a few logs showing the crash multiple times will help identify the pattern of why it’s crashing.

Sounds similar to my problems on WS2019.

Reinstalled same/current version. Server seemed to run maintenance operations for 1-2 hours, then crashed again. Copied logs attached here.
