Hi,

Fresh install of DietPi on C2 + PMS install, working ok for us.

We'll need to debug your system, please can you paste results of following:

Code: Select all

systemctl status plexmediaserver.service -l
dietpi-software list | grep 'id 42'
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plex.list
dpkg -l | grep plex

Hi,

Thanks for the info.

Appears to be installed fine, service has exited, however, this is normal.

We'll need to check all the PMS logs, please upload them, location for logs below:
