_problem Get Plugins Failed

[djbrightside]

I am building a Plex Media Server. I just did a new install of FreeNAS-11.3-U2.1. This is my first server build and I am new to Freenas. Any help would be appreciated.
I got my Pool set up and a dataset set up. I was able to set up SMB windows sharing. I have about 1.5 TB of movies that I am currently transferring over via SMB. The next thing I tried to do was get the Plex plug in and I got this Error......

Anyone know what this means? Thank you for any help

Could not resolve host: github.com

It's a network issue.
You have no DNS configured in FreeNAS ?

 

[djbrightside]

Ok, is that something I would change in global configurations? I can't find any information on how to configure DNS in Freenas.

 

[Yorick]

Network, Global, where you set your default gw, you also set name servers.

 

[Alecmascot]

is that something I would change in global configurations?

Yes. It is in the documentation.
Assign a nameserver.

 

[djbrightside]

Problem Solved. I was able to find my DNS server in Windows by using ipconfig/all. I went to Global Configuration in Freenas. I entered in my IPv4 default gateway and my DNS server IP in Nameserver 1, and all is good now. Thank you Alecmascot for your help.

Thanks all

But if you're setting up a Plex server, consider this instead of the plugin:

Scripted Plex installation

Yes, it's another of my scripted jail installations, this time for Plex Media Server. It puts metadata outside the jail, uses the latest packages, and automatically updates every week. See...

www.ixsystems.com

It stores configuration and metadata outside the jail, which will save you pain if/when you need to rebuild the jail. It also sets up automatic upgrades in the jail, so you'll have as up-to-date a Plex installation as possible.
