Want to pass this by everyone before logging a ticket.
Rebuilt my FreeNAS box with fresh 11 Release install, no previous config, fresh plugin installs, running BSD 11. Permissions have been setup by adding the plex/transmission UID of the Jails to FreeNAS and permissioned to the dataset.
1. Installed Plex, everything working fine except for adding libraries, the only folder it will let me select is "/var/db/plexdata/Plex Media Server" and no way of changing this? Storage has been added to Jails, permissioned to the media folder.
(Issue already reported - https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/24082)
**The temp solution is to manually type the path, i.e. add "/media/movies" into the path and it will pickup the movies, the bug is you cant browse from the root folder.
2. Transmission, I have an external settings.json on a dataset that i add to rc.conf, instead of recreating my settings every time. Made changes but everytime Transmission starts it modifies the download directory line to my settings, "download-dir": "/usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home/Downloads", i need to add this (transmission_download-dir="/data/Downloads) to rc.conf for it to stick, it also seems to completely ignore incomplete folder settings? I thought at first this was permission issues, but that fact it can modify the settings.json file shows it ok?
Thanks
