(Fix) Failed to execute XPath query '//services/plexmediaserver'.

  • Hi,


    i already read threads like Failed to execute XPath query '//services/plexmediaserver'. and know how to fix this.


    If you reinstall Plex, you will get the error "Failed to execute XPath query '//services/plexmediaserver' "
    The first fix for this problem seemed to be


    Bash
    chgrp -R plex /var/lib/plexmediaserver
    chmod 777 /var/lib/plexmediaserver
    dpkg --configure plexmediaserver openmediavault-plexmediaserver

    But after a restart of your server, the Plex service doesn't start anymore. The problem is, that the user/group "plex" and the Folder /var/lib/plexmediaserver aren't deleted if you uninstall plex and this leads to problems on a new installation.


    So
    1. uninstall Plex (OMV Webinterface)
    2. delete the user/group plex
    3. delete /var/lib/plexmediaserver
    4. install plex again (OMV Webinterface)


    this should fix the problem.


    (sorry for my english)
