Hello there,
i',m new here so bear with me,
i just installed OMV 3 on my RasPi3 and i installed plexserver too
i attached three usb hdds with a powered usb hub, using one of them for TimeMachine which works like a charm
another one seems ok, but the last one which is the most important one to me and has a lot of videos (movies, tv show,..) which i want to use with plex seems to have a problem.
first, it's shown as referenced in my filesystem tab, but i don't have any shared folder except my timemachine, and i don't have any users so no home directories, and nothing else
second, i can't add it as my plex server database volume, cause when i apply the changes it shows a long error about trying to chown the disk and not being able because of operation not permitted
i also tried to chown disk with CLI as root which i was not able to do,
what is the problem?
Disk Referenced and cannot chown
-
- OMV 3.x
- theomidm

How is the disk formatted? If it is NTFS remember that native linux filesystem commands will not work.
-
no it's not NTFS, it's FAT32
even if it was NTFS the chown should still work, right?By the way, i re installed the whole thing, started from scratch and still no luck.. the disk is no longer referenced but when i try to enable plex, it shows error about chown
and it works just fine if i choose another one of my disk as database volume!!! how is that even possible?

I'm also thinking now about Plex. There was only one guy I knew of that was porting it for the RPis. He stopped working on it over a year ago. What instructions did you use to intsall plex?
We see problems all the time when people are trying to use linux filesystem commands on non native linux filesystems. I would only recommend doing this on linux filesystems (e.g. ext4 or XFS).

I installed Plex via the plugin provided in GUI..
Anyway i Solved the problem and it had nothing to do with Plex!!! it's a problem that OpenMediaVault has with Fat32 format (vfat).
just did this:
and changed the line that OMV created for Fat32 formatted disk from:
to:
Bash/dev/disk/by-label-Plex /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Plex vfat auto,users,nofail,dmask=000,fmask=111 0 0
and then:
And then rebooted, and now it works just fine like my other disks that are formatted with Ext4, NTFS, HFS+
