Here is the plex server version I was running: 1.25.7.5604-980a13e02
I know this isn't a plex help forum, but I have always had the best help here. So a point in any direction would be helpful and appreciated.
I got plex up and running last night, was able to watch a few shows on it no problem no hitch or anything. Rclone worked perfectly as well, no hickups with the stream or buffering.
This morning, I go to continue watching and I see that plex is down? I login and see what I can't access http://localhost:32400/web. I check the status of plex and I see that it failed to load the preferences.xml file? It also shows active for 8 hours, what could have caused this or where can I go from here to troubleshoot? I am new to linux so any help would be appreciated!
