Interesting. Can you show me what you see because someone is streaming from it via the WAN indicating it does have external connectivity (Remote Access)
I think you’re starting to see something Engineering has been finding and already working on. It appears to be happening regionally but without rhyme or reason
One last thing. If it matters. From what I can gather, the user you are seeing is accessing my server via plex tv apps or phone app. It seems the only issues have been with the web based plex.tv app.
It wasn’t clear if @ChuckPa was referring to the loss of connectivity to plex.tv or the lack of ability to play via a web browser. But the plex service lost connectivity to plex.tv again. Is my install unique? It happened again some point since the last time I restarted the plex service (~3pm yesterday). Is there more information you can provide that engineering has learned?
If you see verbose logging enabled, ignore. I disabled verbose logging then restarted the plex service. Restarting the plex service re-establishes the communication with plex.tv.
Permission problems within the Plex share. This should not happen because I create that share and top level directories in it when PMS is installed

Minor housekeeping to keep the system running wel. (Database Optimization)
Please make sure database optimization is enabled in Schedule Tasks and the system is running during that time so the butler will

Issue 1 should be resolved now. At least it’s using the temp location with the correct user perms. That /transcode setting was carried over from when it was running in a docker container. It’s now running natively on a synology.
This is weird as I’ve had this enabled for months (if not longer). And this runs 24/7 on my synology. At any rate, I’ve manually initiated the optimize the database task.
