Hello everyone,

my Plex server stopped working after restart.

In my current situation I have to turn off the Server over night and after todays start Plex wasn’t accessible anymore. I haven’t changed anything besides adding new media. The last “unusual” thing I did was updating my version but it worked as usual after that. I’ve read somewhere today that the update can cause problems.

So I did some testing and figured out that Plex was running because I could access my content through the Win10 and Android App, DLNA was also working.
When i try to connect with the Browser to the WebUI i get the following:

This page isn’t working
192.168.2.30 didn’t send any data.
ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

My conclusion: WebUI is broken.

What I did so far:
  • restarting a few times
  • creating a new jail through TrueNas which did work( and also showed my stuff)
  • changing IP of the Jail
  • trying t manually start the UI but couldn’t find out how
I hope you can follow what I’ve written here.
If you need more information, just ask i'm really new to this and not really familiar with the BSD environment at all.

In conclusion: I need help

I was able to Fix it with some help.

I set Secure Connection to Required" at Settings → Network → Secure Connections.

This is solved now.

I have the same issue. How did you change the setting if you can't load the UI?

Hopefully you still don't have this issue, but if you do, I was able to access my server on my local LAN by accessing plex.tv. I was able to access the server just fine that way allowing me to change the setting.
