I have a problem with the plex media server. I had Freenas Corral running fine, but due to performance issues reverted back to freenas 9.10.3 nightlies.
Plex mediaserver was stuttering with corral.
So I did a fresh install of the latest nightly build and imported my volume.
So far so good.
Then I wanted to install the plexmedia plugin. Creating of jail went fine adding storage also but when I wan't to start the plugin I get only "some error occured"
I hope someone can point me in the good direction to solve this.

Curious as to why you would start with a nightly build.

System specs please per the forum rules.

Ik start with nightly because of my zpool version coming from corral. My system is an AMD athlon with 8 gb of memory.

You will likely need more RAM for Plex but you didn't list your hardware so it's a little hard to make any recommendations.

Mij system is system Asus E35M1-I Memory 8GB Hdd 4 times WD red disk 2TB
But I don't know what memory has to do with not starting plex.
I use this sytem for 3 years now and plex has always worked even with freenas 9.10.2
But I did an fresh installation of freenas corral and even that went fine.
I only had some performance issues.
That's wy I reverted back to the freenas 9 train.
But to save my data and don't won't to restore everything I stepped on the nightly train because of the new zpool featureset.
But I'm stuck now.

problem solved.
Made a backup of my data and wiped the whole system.
Installed latest stable release.
Plugin worked like a charm.
It's the nightly version causing the problems.
Noe I have to restore my data pfff.
