I’m running plex server on Ubuntu 20.04
I had no issues with the system for many years, but now I’m facing problem to change libs (located on the same ubuntu) scanner - “your changes could not be saved”. I can change everything else via web console, but not the scanner. I can’t do this while adding new library nor editing existing one.
Wasn’t able to google the solution for the same exact config by other people that experienced the same error.
What should I look into to try to fix this?
“Have you tried restarting the Plex service?”
Sure, few times trying every ideas I’ve read on forums
“maybe check permissions on the folder for the library”
It’s set to 777, but the owner and group is me, I have no idea what should I try. Deluge client has no issues to download files there.
“Check out Chuckpa’s tool for database maintenance, maybe the db is corrupted?”
Thank you, I’ll try it, but it happens even with library dedicated to the directory with a single movie, I’ve also tried to delete and set up library as a new one, no success.
“Reddit - Dive into anything”
I’ve seen that before, tried what is suitable to my config, like stop lib scanning, but
Deleting libraries etc won’t have much affect if the database is corrupted somewhere. I’d try the repair tool to be certain it’s not a database problem.
