Hello, I was recently starting to backup my plex server config folder using rsync to move over to an updated docker host. Currently running on ubuntu 18.04 LTS server and after performing a copy and testing the new server now my existing server is crashing during startup.
The docker starts and then after a few seconds crashes out and restarts over and over again.

I tired database cleanups, rolled back to a backup from a few weeks ago following the Plex KBs adjusted the linux permissions and owners to match the container and nothing.

The only thing that I can think of is that I messed up the server claiming when I started up the new server with a copy of the database and a different claim token. The new server was crashing out the same way when I was able to get that started up and then I started experiencing this issue. I got a new claim token and put that in but that still did not resolve the issue.

There is nothing in either log file that stands out to me as to why it’s crashing and I can’t read the dmp file. Is anyone able to shed any light on what might be going on?

Ok so after posting this I rolled back to an even older database from April and now it works… I have no idea what was wrong with that version of the database that I was trying to use but something must have been catastrophically wrong.

If someone is able to review the dmp or logs and try and pinpoint what happened that would still be appreciated.
