I have followed the official tutorial on how to install plex media server for freenas 11.2 (Two times now) So, when I get to setting up my new directory, all i get is a grayed out one.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=465&v=Lhd-OvUqNxQ (At 7:45, my freenas directory that ive made is just grayed out for me)

I really wanna add more to this so you get a better idea, but i'm just too frustrated to think right now :(

Please help me, I tried this two times though none of them work, I also tried other ways though still no luck.

Today somehow it is working (except tv_show folder). But I do not figure out properly.

01. In plex plugin I make 5 folder and chmod 0755.

02. Change Dataset Permission

03. Mount Data set to plex /mnt/ folder

Hello all,
I am new to FreeNas and Plex. I have finally figured out how to get my Plex to work. I first started with a tutorial from the FreeNas Team on YouTube--https://youtu.be/Lhd-OvUqNxQ. I found the tutorial very helpful but I couldn't get Plex to access my folders.
So after much frustration and perseverance, I finally got it working. I made a video showing what I did: https://youtu.be/Fhu7xhi_kUI
I made this after working a 14 hour day...I was a little tired so it might be a little long winded!

I hope this helps.
