Plex Server fails to start

[TheGeeker]

I had plex server running fine and it crashed and I had to uninstall it. Now it does this when I try to start it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

Mind checking if restarting the jail fixes this.

Also, this is the middleware plugin layer that is breaking in this case, not plex itself. This will be relevant if we have to debug further.

I am also getting this error when trying to start my Plex plugin. I've tried everything, restarting the jail, reinstalling the plugin and the jail, rebooting the machine after the re-install, updating to the latest stable 9.3 build ect... The error message is so vague (looks like one of python scripts within Plex is erroring). Any ideas?
Here's the error I see in the console when I try turning the Plex service slider to on:

/plugins/plexmediaserver/1/_s/status: No JSON object could be decoded

can you ping your computer from the plex jail?

I'm guessing I need to change the IP of my jail to something on this side of the router...

yeah, otherwise routing won't make any sense to the jail.
