Plex no longer updating

Hi Guys,

I've been rocking along fine for years running OpenMediaVault (currently on 0.5) with the plex server plugin.

It's always been a bit behind the main server releases but usually the updates came through eventually.

However, I've been stuck on plex version 0.9.16.4 for a long time now with no updates through update manager.

Through the plex console it's telling me to update to version 1.1.4.2757

Could anyone help here?

I'm no Linux ninja but I can SSH into OMV and run some commands.

Do I need to add in a new repo at all? Can anyone help?

Edit: I notice when i do an apt-get update that quite a few resources are 404 not found including the shell.ninthgate.se which i think might contain plex ?

Edit: Following another thread I tried updating the key for ninthgate repo like this:

sudo curl http://shell.ninthgate.se/pack…hell.ninthgate.se.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -

However, now when I go to Update Manager and run an update I get a error, although I think this may be the same error as the previous edit.

Cheers,
Kudos

Thanks,

I have read through that thread but I can't make any sense of it at all.

I tried adding the repo with:

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv EDEE7D73

But this did nothing.

Tried running:

apt-get install apt-transport-https

But it throws the error:

Failed to fetch http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debia…8.10.3+squeeze1_amd64.deb 404 Not Found

If I run:

apt-get update

I get a load of repos which are 404 Not Found ?

How can it have gone so wrong? What am I missing ?

Kudos

Thanks ryecoaaron for taking the time to respond, much appreciated.

When I said adding the key did nothing I meant the key got added as far as I could tell but running an apt-get update then apt-get upgrade found nothing to update.

Thanks,

OK thanks very much, I really appreciate your help.

I ran an upgrade to version OMV 1.19 using omv-release-upgrade. Took a while, seems like it's a substantial update.

Now I'm on the latest version of Plex Server and so far all seems fine !

Is there any real benefit of moving up to 2.x ?

One thing - if I go to Update Manager I get the error:

'The index of upgradeable packages does not exist. Please re-synchronize the package index files from their sources'

and on the plugin section:

'The index of available plugins does not exist. Please re-synchonize the package index files from their sources'

How do I do that ?

Thanks,
Lee

I don't have the omv-extras folder/plugin?

I ran apt-get clean from the command line but still the same web gui error.

Should I try any of the suggestions from this post:
If omv-update gives an error ...

I first tried updating to omv2.x but it failed:

SystemError: E:The value 'stable' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources
Reading package lists... Done
Reading package lists... Done
E: The value 'stable' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources

Thought I'd install omv-extras anyway - seem to install fine, but of course I can't actually go into the plugins folder because of the previously mentioned index error....

You sir are an utter OMV genius!

All fixed.

The indexes are all fixed for the updates and plugins.

I havent tried updating to 2.x and i have no idea where the omv extra section is supposed to be, i seem to remember from years ago it created a folder in the web gui.

however, im not really fussed because all is working again so im happy for now.

Thank you very much for your help I never would have figured this without your help.

Kudos
