Hello,

I hope that this is an ok forum in which to post this.

I have been using Tautulli for quite some time. Just to export my Plex Playlists, so that I can then use them with the MyMedia for Alexa App.

Yesterday I upgraded to the latest version (v2.18.2).

When I then ran Tautulli I found that my largest Plex Playlists were Timing Out. Tautulli was giving the error “An error occurred while loading table. Please check the logs”.

After several hours trying to sort things out I am now in this position:

If I wish to open Tautulli (and it has previously been open) I double click its icon and nothing will happen (except that Tautulli will be placed into Task Manager). If I then once again tell Tautulli to open, it will fail with the message "Failed to start Tautulli Port 8181 not free on 0.0.0.0).

I then have no option, other than deleting config.ini (and also tautulli.db, if I wish Tautulli to open as normal). And also removing Tautulli from Task Manager. Once I have done this Tautulli will open, although it will still Time Out regarding my Plex Playlists.

I have tried everything I can think of to cure this. And, I have followed many methods (which are guaranteed to fix the problem) all with no success.

I have just completed yet another total uninstall (using windows Uninstall, plus deleting all files and folders relating to Tautulli).

I have then completed a fresh install. I have then opened it (for the one occasion which I am allowed) of course my Plex Playlists have Timed Out.

Please tell me how & which (identity safe) Log Files I should provide to you helpful people.

If someone can figure this out and provide my with a solution which actually works, I will be extremely grateful.

Thanks,

Paul
