hi guys,
I'm trying to get plex to work on my server (HPE Microserver Gen8 with Xeon E3-1260L 16GB ECC 4*8TB Iron Wolf) and I'm running into problems.
The plugin installs fine and I can go to the management site without a problem. After installing I went to the jail and added the my media as a mount point to the media folder. Since you cant navigate in the folders on the web interface I just tried to give it the path e.g. /media/Vidoes/ ; /media/Series/ ; /media/music/. When this didn't work I tried mounting the media straight into a Folder i could see inside the management web interface so I set my media folder to be at /usr/local/plexdata-plexpass/Plex Media Server/ but this didn't help either.
So then I thought I probably need to restart the server for the mounting points to take effect, but after a reboot the Jail stays down and so does the plugins. I can select the jail and restart it without a problem but the plugin doesn't respond to a click on start.
I'm pretty sure this is a simple permissions thing so here's how I have set up my media folder. User and Owner both have the id 1000 and both have read/write/execute rights. So far group 1000 consists only of user 1000.
I've read that I have to have the same permissions inside and outside of the jail. How do I find out how the permissions look inside the jail?
hope you guys can help me out with this rookie question
