Plex - Cannot access the Plex web interface

[Stoffern]

In a nutshell: I can't seem to access my plex media server. I'm a complete newbie to FreeNAS, as I just installed it today.
I've watched a few videos on how to set it up, but no success thus far. From what I've seen, there's supposed to be a "Management" button in between the Stop and Delete button that leads you to "plexipaddress :32400/web/index.html", however, I can't seem to find that button.

Here is all the information I've gathered that might help solve this issue.

OS Version: FreeNAS-11.2-RC1
Plugin release: 11.2-RELEASE-p4

What I've tried:
I've tried reinstalling Plex.
Rebooting the server.
Updating the jail. (Although it finishes in a millisecond, so not sure if it really updated.)
Entering the Plex IPv4 address in a browser and adding ":32400/web/index.html" behind it. (plexipaddress :32400/web/index.html)

Any help is much appreciated. :)

I have tried that, but it doesn't work.

Do you have vnet enabled for the jail? Other users have reported that vnet is required for plex to function properly.

Yes, VNET is enabled from what I can see. I can't seem to even un-enable it, as it tells me "VNET is required."

Your jail doesn't seem to be running from your screen caps. From the system shell run iocage list and post the ouput in code tags.

My screenshots are from when it's off, but I have it running.

Here's what I got from the shell:

Code:

[root@freenas ~]# iocage list												   
+-----+------+-------+--------------+------+									
| JID | NAME | STATE |   RELEASE	| IP4  |									
+=====+======+=======+==============+======+									
| 2   | plex | up	| 11.2-RELEASE | DHCP |									
+-----+------+-------+--------------+------+

From inside the jail what is the output of service plexmediaserver start ?

Using the shell within the jail, this is what it returns:

Code:

root@plex:~ # service plexmediaserver start
Cannot 'start' plexmediaserver. Set plexmediaserver_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of 'start'.

 

[Stoffern]

Typing
root@plex:~ # service plexmediaserver onestart
into the jail shell fixed the issue :)

Thanks @Jailer !

I would still file a bug report for the missing functionality in the GUI.

right, and might as well do:

Code:

sysrc plexmediaserver_enable=YES

(in the jail's command line) just to make it permanent.
