Apologies if I’m posting this in the wrong section, or am lacking in providing any information.
Plex Server is on a Windows 10 laptop, and seems to be randomly crashing during the last couple of weeks. During playback and during idle. Version 1.8.4.4249 and Version 1.9.3.4290. I hope I have attached the relevant logs!

Logs after a crash which occurred while playing media…
There may be an issue with the data within the database
Could you do a test to see if this request crashes the server
Put the request in a browser http://192.168.0.18:32400/library/metadata/2104/children?X-Plex-Token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You need to replace the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with the server token
see https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/204059436-Finding-an-authentication-token-X-Plex-Token
If it does crash the server, please restart, download logs and also database and send to me by Private Message
Thanks for sending the logs and PMS and DLNA databases
The crashes were occurring because an old TV Show Outnumbered Season 2 entry in the database was linked to an entry for TV Show that was no longer in the database. The DLNA Server had the entry cached and requested data from the server resulting in the crash.
I will be raising this with the development team to stop the crash and replace it with an error
It is not clear at this point as to how this TV Show entry got removed from the database. There is a valid new entry for Season 2 and linked to the Outnumbered TV Show - but the old entry is still there with unmatched episodes but linked to a non existing TV Show entry -
You may have been moving files around to put the seasons under TV Show Outnumbered .
Do you recall when the crashes started ? and when you were manipulating the data for Outnumbered ? and exactly what you did ? matching / unmatching ? renaming folders ?
As it appears that it is only DLNA server that has the cached data for the obsolete season entry, disabling DLNA should stop the crashes.
