I am having problems.
First, in the logs, it appears as though there are database migrations that have never happened from a previous upgrade, as it always says right after launch that it’s completing migrations. (I am stuck on this version of PMS as I am running macOS Sierra and cannot upgrade the OS, so it’s definitely not that I keep upgrading PMS and would expect to see it repeatedly.) It’s unclear to me if this is an actual issue.

Second, I am seeing repeated errors about invalid fields. Unclear to me if this is actually an issue, and if so, if it’s related to the migrations thing above.

Third, an actual issue: Generally the Home page always loads when using the website. However, the libraries sometimes will not (e.g. clicking on a library in the sidebar). It seems to work more consistently when opening a browser on the actual machine running Plex and accessing it via a local URL, but even then I have seen cases where it won’t load. Another computer on the same network, accessing it via the same local URL, works maybe 1 time out of 10.
Fourth, search won’t return any results in the UI. In the process of gathering logs for this, I see that the server is finding results for my query (“Tiny World”) but on the website, the progress icon just spins and spins and results never appear. This happens no matter what computer I’m accessing it from.
I am seeing a lot of slow query and transaction held for too long warnings, but it’s unclear to me if these actually matter.
This seems to have started happening in the last few days; I wasn’t having any problems before that (other than the Transaction held too long warnings have been around for quite a while). I realize the hardware is old (see below), but as I haven’t really had problems until now, I’m wondering what changed.
I used the support article about checking for corruption and rebuilding the database, both of which I did, no errors reported. It did not really change anything. I ran DBRepair “auto”, also no errors reported, but which also did not really change anything.
