plexmediaserver-plexpass on TrueNAS

[Drifting]

I have spent quite a while tryin gto update this as it says and update is avialable. I have tried all sorts of updates, but most relate to FreeNas and nothing to TrueNas, so following the updates fails, and I have to go trhough a complete wipe of the jail and start again.

Now as I said I have the plexpass version.

How do I go about updating plexpass verision on TrueNAS-12.0-U1.1 and still get it to work at the end. I am totally confused by all the different ways of doing this, just need something that I can follow.

I use portupgrade to manage the ports I have installed in my jails. Just run the following commands and you'll be good.

Code:

portsnap fetch update
pkg install ports-mgmt/portupgrade
portupgrade -R --batch plexmediaserver-plexpass
portsclean -C
service plexmediaserver_plexpass restart

Why would you go through all that trouble when pkg install plexmediaserver-plexpass will install it?

pkg has never worked for me keeping ports up-to-date. i don't see how using portupgrade is exactly trouble" fwiw

portupgrade isn't so much a problem but portsnap is. It's been depricated.

Sadly I got:-

portupgrade -R --batch plexmediaserver-plexpass
portupgrade: command not found

Any other ideas?

you need to install portupgrade first with pkg install ports-mgmt/portupgrade

I would highly suggest you don't do this. pkg install plexmediaserver-plexpass is so much easier and does exactly the same thing.

he said he was wanting to update. The latest version pkg will install is 1.21.1.3830. The latest port is 1.22.0.4145. Hence portupgrade can be used instead of performing make && make install.

Or just wait the 2 days for the port to get built for you. I think waiting is much easier and simpler then remembering how to update it manually.

@Drifting how do you have pex currently installed? Was it via the plugin?

how did you initially install Plex?

This is how I update my plex.. this works with the plug in and if you manually install plex from scratch using pkg .. not sure if it would work if you installed via ports .. :

Manually updating Plex on FreeNAS, including PlexPass versions. -PMS_Updater.sh - CrackedConsole

Update Plex Media Server on your FreeNAS Server with out waiting for plugin updates. This works with Plex and Plex Pass versions! PMS_Updater script

Thank you so much for the reply. I just installed Plex via the plugin, and set permission (Which I found somewhere else) that allows plex to see the media. I am using the plexpass as I have that. It did all work till it suddenly started saying "There is an undate"
However, I have just followed your instructions, fingers crossed this time.

Hooray! You are a hero. It worked this time. Thank you so much.

Paul.
