Been running plex for almost 2 years no major dramas. System: FreeNAS 9.10, with 16GB RAM A couple of days ago, plex crashed (rare but not miles out of the ordinary) I rebooted FreeNAS, and next time I looked (about an hour later) it was down again. Now, I had around that time gone from 9.3 to 9.10 FreeNAS, so assumed that must have something to do with it, I rebuilt all of my jails (had been meaning to anyway) and rebuilt plex using (inside a freshly created jail): portsnap fetch extract cd /usr/ports/multimedia/plexmediaserver-plexpass/ && make install clean That’s fine - I restored the back up meta data and rebooted the jail. Plex came up all working - lasted only about 5 minutes before crashing again. I had previously been running from the plugin on FreeNAS rather than building it, and I had the auto update script, which would have updated it around the time it first crashed. And the new jail obviously has the most current plex pass version. So that could be a factor. However - in my logs I get this: (the last few lines from the plex media server log) ```auto Apr 23, 2016 17:12:12 [0x80b486400] WARN - NetworkServiceBrowser: Error sending out discover packet: send_to: Can't assign requested address Apr 23, 2016 17:12:17 [0x80b486400] WARN - NetworkServiceBrowser: Error sending out discover packet: send_to: Can't assign requested address Apr 23, 2016 17:12:17 [0x80b486400] WARN - NetworkServiceBrowser: Error sending out discover packet: send_to: Can't assign requested address Apr 23, 2016 17:12:20 [0x80d0cd800] ERROR - Had trouble breaking X-Plex-Token Apr 23, 2016 17:12:20 [0x80d0cd800] ERROR - ERROR: Parsing request failed.

why only pasting parts of logs ? Should always attach full logs. You can zip the logs folder and attach the zip or attach the individual logs but after restarting the server to get fresh logs and recreating the problem Would like to see what thread with identifier `0x80d0cd800` was doing prior to the token processing error - for example. The warnings on discovery packets are normal and do arise on FreeNAS. Only may impact GDM and SSDP discovery and what time was the crash and is there a crash dmp file to go with the Plex Media Server.log for the crash ---

Sorry for the slow reply - certainly, attached is the logs folder zipped. So for background for the logs - I re-installed today. Steps I took: New jail (with the new jail template) on the latest FreeNAS, then the following from SSH into the jail: `pkg update && pkg upgrade -y` `pkg install multimedia/plexmediaserver-plexpass` `echo plexmediaserver_plexpass_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf` `# restarted the jail at this point` `service plexmediaserver_plexpass stop` `rm -Rf /mnt/Family/Jails/Plex/usr/local/plexdata-plexpass/Plex\ Media\ Server/` `cp -Rip 'backuplocation' /mnt/Family/Jails/Plex/usr/local/plexdata-plexpass/Plex\ Media\ Server/` `# last two lines were to copy over the data I had from my old installation - I then used ls -l to confirm the permissions were the same as before.` `#I then attached the storage from FreeNAS for the media directory, as I had before` `pw groupadd Family -g 1001` `pw usermod plex -G Family` `#Last two were to make sure plex had access to the media folder (and was what I had set it to before)` `# confirmed this with tail /etc/group` `#I then restarted the jail` So, i then went to [plex.tv/web/](http://plex.tv/web/) And whola Plex appeared, as before with everything I had previously, all watched unwatched etc remembered. Files were playable, all looking good. I closed the app, informed some one else to confirm they could get on - they could, then immediately text back saying they couldn’t `Apr 26 20:09:15 freenas kernel: pid 89300 (Plex Media Server), uid 972: exited on signal 11.` I had that in my FreeNAS session, plex this time apparently lasted all of one or two minutes. Memory usage (from the reporting section of FreeNAS) had 4.4GB inactive, throughout the whole event, with some more free. No Swap space was used. And as previously mentioned plex has run very well on this system for a substantial period of time. I am tearing my hair out a little, as I am completely clueless on diagnosing this and my Google voodoo is failing me. ---

A device / app is sending an invalid request and it is crashing the server. The tojen processing appears relevant ```auto Apr 26, 2016 20:09:15 [0x80c03b400] ERROR - Had trouble breaking X-Plex-Toke Apr 26, 2016 20:09:15 [0x80c03b400] ERROR - ERROR: Parsing request failed.

@George51 The crash of Plex Media Server has now been fixed and will get included in a future release of Plex Media Server. I do not know at this stage which version it will be released in What is needed now is to identify what is sending the malformed requests or if they are generated correctly, what is truncating them before reaching the Plex Media Server ---

@sa2000 Okay. Thank you very much for your assistance so far. So based on what you said about it possibly being a device/app with an invalid request. And what I had tried to connect after resetting the server. I reset it, disconnect all of my devices from the server setting page, and then also disconnected the server. Then accessed plex via the ip address, reconnected it to my account, signed out on my android app, signed back in. And so far, it has been connected and stable for a couple of hours. I am away from my computer so done this on my phone and via openvpn, haven’t tested watching anything yet. But so far so good! Pleased to see such a fast response and that a fix will be put into PMS, not sure what caused the invalid request, but I am leaning that way as the cause. Because disconnecting and reconnecting has (apparently, touch wood) fixed the issue. ---

@sa2000 So it’s been nearly 6 hours since I last restarted it. The most time by far that Plex hasn’t crashed in, I’ve tweaked the old Plex Plugin script to update Plex pass for a generic jail installation, that works, Plex seems stable again. I look forward to having the fix you mentioned included so it doesn’t crash PMS if it were to re occur. But I think we can marked this as solved, and if not I will update this thread. Thank you again. ---

I’m having the exact same issue as well! Attached are my logs files.

Glad to contribute to such an amazing piece of software!! Thank you - that is good to know - that it is a windows phone. It is almost 3am where I am so going to bed but would love is the Plex for Windows app debug log file for the time when this happens together with the corresponding [server log](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200250417-plex-media-server-log-files/) - hopefully you will find out from the Plex for Windows Phone forum how to do that ---

I saw that the Windows Phone app was updated a few days ago so perhaps a new issue was introduced. ---

Re the X-Plex-Token parsing error, the development team are unable to reproduce the problem. If either of you could enable diagnostics on the phone app and email the logs to yourself and try and get the crash and provide the logs from the phone app and the server - that would be much appreciated See this support page for enabling Plex for Windows Phone diagnostics and emailing logs to yourself before uploading here with the server Plex Media Server.log at time of crash [https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/202533096-Windows-Phone-Logs](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/202533096-Windows-Phone-Logs) ---

I was using the latest version of the phone client (can’t verify what it was as I uninstalled it but I saw the update occurred a few days ago). The issue started occurring after I took the most recent Plex Media Server update about 24 hours ago. FYI: Every crash message that I saw (ERROR - ERROR: Parsing request failed) always involved the IP address of that phone. Since I uninstalled Plex from the Windows Phone about 16 hours ago, I haven’t had a single crash. And it was happening every 20 mins or so. So it definitely has something to do with the phone interacting with PMS specifically. I’ll try to send the logs tonight. [Next page](https://forums.plex.tv/t/repeated-crashes/143131.md?page=2)
