Server Version#: 1.23.2.4656
Player Version#: Plex Web- Unknown version.
TrueNAS version: TrueNAS-12.0-U4
Jail version: 12.2-RELEASE

Hardware acceleration: disabled.
On a TrueNAS manual jail, installing PMS following [this guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/freenas/comments/eoit3k/plex_install_update_with_manual_plex_update/). The server throw an error after initializing on the WebUI.
On the other hand, if I skipped the PMS_Updater.sh and run the pkg PMS version 1.22.1.4228-724c56e62 by running the following command
> service plexmediaserver_plexpass start
after the step
> sysrc plexmediaserver_plexpass_enable=YES
Everything runs fine. account linked, libraries added and scanned, metadata updated, media played ok. [Except I have to use “Plex TV Series (BETA)” as the TV agent; otherwise, it cannot match any show at all. Let’s save that for another topic.]
If I resume the PMS_Updater.sh installation, everything seems ok except it throws an error whenever I click on the server setting tab.
The server settings page error has other side effects and I had encountered it since May. It was the primary reason I have to reinstall the PMS again.
There’s been some churn in the Plex build tooling, and whether or not LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to be set in the environment for Plex to run correctly.
That’s accounted for in the FreeBSD pkg - the provided RC script makes sure that Plex works correctly.
But if you use PMS_Updater.sh, you’re breaking the FreeBSD packaging. You’re orphaning the pkg, and there’s no guarantee that the old RC script is still correct for the new Plex binaries.
Modify your /usr/local/etc/rc.d/plexmediaserver_plexpass script to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
