I am still getting a ton of these, any ideas. only other error that seems related is
NAT: PMP, got an error: NATPMP_ERR_RECVFROM.
ERROR - Error issuing curl_easy_perform(handle): 28

Just found this, sorry to hear about it sir.
It’s probably coming from a device on your network that Plex is doing automatic discovery about, seeing if it’s a gateway device. Just a guess. You can read the plex.tv website articles on Log Files and upload some.

OML, I almost fell over. A response. My plex has gone to complete he…heck. Buffering constantly, stutter, not fast enough to play this. need to clear cache for every play (another post that hasn’t been touched upon). The list goes on and on. Nearly everything is direct play, so no transcoding. Firecube is wired (i have tried wireless for the fun of it, same thing) speeds seem fine (test around 45mbps). About all the info I can think of. Only had every now and then problems in the past, but in the last few months it is like a snowball rolling downhill. On the verge of moving on from this.Plex Media Server Logs_2019-12-22_00-37-48.zip (1.0 MB)

Oh, i’ll respond far sooner if plex does me the courtesy of letting me know someone said something

@jackmeat sometimes notifications need to be adjusted in your settings. I’ll look at your logs over pasta.

7

yeah, and they are fine, plex just doesn’t want me to see when people reply

I guess I fell asleep and lost my tabs, failed to look at your logs back then sorry.

I do see network issues that you’re talking about. We can get a lot more information from your Plex Media Server when it’s in debug mode and given a power cycle like this:

  1. Go into https://app.plex.tv/
  2. Log in on the PMS owner account as usual
  3. Using Settings - Show Advanced - General (lower one) - Enable Debug
  4. Save Changes
  5. Power cycle all the hardware in your LAN: routers > switches > PMS computer > then client.
  6. Give PMS 6 minutes to fully initialize. Don’t cheat.
  7. Open the web app again like in step 1.
  8. Setttings - Troubleshooting - Download Logs
  9. Zip up the folder it gives you, but you can leave out all the old logs from before the reboot.

Ok, I’ll do this on the next Windows update which as we know is going to be on tuesday. A good forced time to reboot everything and get a proper log for you to look into, which I very much appreciate. And don’t worry about forgetting to look for a bit. First, you don’t owe me anything, you are looking out of courtesy. Second, the fact you even remembered at all surprised me. And I still don’t get notifications when people respond, so I am in no way able to know when I have missed things as well.

10

Thanks for the kind words. Look forward to your info.

Do you get a notification when I ping @jackmeat ?

Hiya buddy. Ok, just finished installing a liquid cooler. Been running a wraith air cooler on my system for too long, so threw in an enermax aquafusion. quite nice looking, and dropped temp by about 20C, so not bad. Anyway, with that I did actually remember to turn on debug and gave it a lot longer than 6 minutes, more like 2 hours as I was doing other stuff. But here you go, and thanks again. Oh, nope, I had no idea you responded. Setting to get messages, and this right here " You will receive notifications because you created this topic.

Yeah, means nothing. I still never get notified.Plex Media Server Logs_2020-01-16_03-02-46.zip (3.2 MB)

Hi I’m seeing networking and possibly DNS problems in your com.plexapp.system.log that are cascading into a broken PMS.

Looking at your Plex Media Server.log I noticed that you have a VPN running. I don’t think PMS will work correctly without a lot of extra work.

As I don’t run a VPN, I’d just be quoting internet posts without being able to validate what works with your provider. My suggestion to search the forums and Plex website articles and reddit is pretty weak, but that’s what I got this atm lol.

Post as much detail here as you feel comfortable. Other users might notice this and have suggestions.

Yeah exactly as @nibbles states, a VPN will probably enable some routes on your machine routing table, as they are advertised by your provider so not much to do here except for disabling the network advertisement of your player/server, you are probably broadcasting traffic to all your neighbors. Just use PLEX online services to register your device and make it accessible.

I would bet than in your routing table an address space matches the 1.0.0.0 network or at least includes it.

Anyway I just feel curious on no adapter having other than non link-local addresses, your log shows that for IPv4 APIPA addresses are being assigned, and for IPv6 just local prefixes, so that is the reason I suppose PLEX is detecting VPN as primary interface and tries to broadcast outside your boundaries.

14

Yeah, I see the radmin VPN listed in there (which is never running so that is kind of strange, I must’ve caught it one of the few times I had the service running but wasn’t using it). I use torguard for my VPN, and it is always running so I have no idea (assuming I am reading that correctly) it is using that as the primary network interface. Under basic network settings, right now for example, it shows that adapter as active ??? and when I try to disable it, it just re-enables itself(I stopped the service I did not know was running and disabled it). Definitely an issue I should look into. I don’t even use it and didn’t realize it was active. In torguard I have the port open on a specific server with them for plex port 32400 which I requested from them only to get remote access to work BUT hardly anyone streams from me, so tough you know what for them if I have to break them for a bit to get everything working A-OK for my household. Ethernet 3 is what torguard uses yet it says it is ignoring that?? Whole thing does have me a bit confused now seeing this.
