Unable to upgrade plexpass version in jail

[NasKar]

I've upgrade FreeNAS to 11.3, then did

Code:

iocage fetch

and selected 11.3. ,

Code:

iocage upgrade -r 11.3-RELEASE plexpass

, restarted the jail

Code:

iocage console plexpass

Code:

pkg update && pkg upgrade

says it's all up to date.
My version is plexpass-1.18.1.1973_1

I just went through this. I ended up just deleting the jail and reinstalling. Wasnt too big of a deal for me.

That worked. Do u think I have to delete all my other jails and reinstall them?

I can't answer that directly because I really don't know. I did reinstall all my jails because at some point the OS version of FreeNas will eventually not be compatible with older jail versions. This is what you just ran into with Plex. So I would think you'd have to reinstall or rebuild all your jails, though there may be a way to update them to the current OS version without doing so, that I don't know about. It was just easier for me to redo the jails.

I recommend if you re-create you do it like described in the below post with a separate config dataset. That way if you do ever need to re-create a jail in the future and chances are you probably will at some point it takes so little time you might as will do it instead of an upgrade. Honestly wish I did it sooner.

FN11.3 iocage jails - Plex, Tautulli, Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Jackett, Transmission, Organizr

I try to check this thread about every 2 weeks but I will not respond to PMs for support. Please post in the thread so other people also assist. Like a number of people who may be in the same case I was in, I had gone to Corral for Docker...

If you haven't done anything to the pkg repo, it's still going to be on the default quarterly repo. There are probably hundreds of posts here on changing it to "latest."

That's what I did. I have a script that automatically installs plex and it has the latest version now. Just makes me nervous to take a jail that is working and destroy it/reinstall and hope all is well afterwards.

I was have my FreeBSD.conf set to latest. That's why I didn't understand why it wouldn't upgrade to the latest version of plex.
Some of my jails I destroy and reinstall and some I upgraded with

Code:

iocage update <jail_name>
iocage upgrade -r 11.3-RELEASE <jail_name>

I'm not sure if one method is better than the other or if you wind up at the same place?
