I just installed my plugins jail and the three plugins. Everything appeared to work fine and I can start transmission. I cannot start minidlna. I get "some error occurred" and the window below shows:

http://192.168.1.200:8090/plugins/minidlna/_s/treemenu: HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error

I see other people with this error have posted but none of the steps suggested there seem to make a difference for me.

I ran this command - http://192.168.1.200:8090/plugins/minidlna/_s/treemenu - as was suggested in one of the posts and got the following output (below).

I am running FreeNAS-8.2.0-RELEASE-p1-x64 (r11950) with plugin: 1.0.22_3 minidlna-1.0.22_3-amd64

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 Not to be too pissy but could you have taken a crack at answering the question while commenting on my post etiquette?

No, because I don't have any ideas. I do know that it will help others parse your pastes better if you do that, though. Good luck!

Fair enough! Hopefully someone will come to my aid. I see that others have the same problem in the past but I can't really decipher a resolution from the responses.

You should try the version 1.0.24_1 of minidlna. You'll find it in the FreeNAS 8.3 folder. Actually I'm not sure it will solve your problem but your version has experienced some issues.

Thanks. I installed this version and got a little further. It now reports that it needs to be configured before I can start it. However it does not show in the services/plugins tree. Maybe I have to reboot the server? I can't do that right now as I am running a series of file operations. Also, I am running FreeNAS 8.2 - do I need to upgrade to 8.3 for this?

This is a known GUI bug see thread here. It has been fixed in the ?FN8.3.0 BETA 3 release.

It appears that the Final release of FN 8.3.0 is imminent so I would just wait and upgrade to that. In the meantime, you can use the workaround from the thread above to reinstall and configure the plugin so that it works for you.
