Hi,

Changing to my dedicate server, enable to have Plex. Enable to install it proprely. Enable to have it (on the dashbord plex is red).
Enable to go to localhost: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. So what can I do to? It is a new installation.

Already the same with Ubuntu 16.04 …

Sadly not using an ubuntu atm. but on debian it’s running just fine with latest release - so pretty much alive here :grinning:

#4

google says: sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq plexmediaserver

and then I would try installing from the quickbox gui or via box and not trying to install via just apt.

#5

Already tried.
When installation was by gui, on the term plex is not installated.

It seems to me like you need to get this uninstalled before it will install again. Have you looked and tried these:

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Not solved yet
