Ran apt upgrade last night to upgrade to ver 1.40.5.8897-e5987a19d.  
Upgrade Failed and Plex will not Load.

Re-Running apt upgrade returns:  
Setting up plexmediaserver (1.40.5.8897-e5987a19d) …  
**dpkg:** error processing package plexmediaserver (–configure):  
installed plexmediaserver package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1  
Errors were encountered while processing:  
plexmediaserver  
**E:** Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

/var/log/dpkg.log ends with:  
2024-08-22 07:47:55 startup packages configure  
2024-08-22 07:47:55 configure plexmediaserver:amd64 1.40.5.8897-e5987a19d   
2024-08-22 07:47:55 status half-configured plexmediaserver:amd64 1.40.5.8897-e5987a19d

Please Assist. How do I get Plex Upgraded?
