Hi! After electrical shutdown on Ubuntu server - plex media server not found. Web App searching but not connect.

I remove plex media server and install this again, but servers not found. Web application working fine.

systemctl status plexmediaserver.service

Worked!!!

Connect to the server as if it were on a remote network:

On the local host,

  1. open a ssh connection to it and leave it open after authenticating.

Copy

ssh ip.address.of.server -L 8888:localhost:32400

  1. While letting that connection stay open, run your browser through that connection

Copy

http://localhost:8888/manage/index.html#!/setup

This will start the setup wizard. From there, you can complete setup.
