    The more you do things from the cli, the harder it gets to fix the problem. Moving to /var/lib is definitely unsupported.

    Please don't PM for support... Too many PMs!

  • If that does not work do this:


    apt-get --purge remove openmediavault-plexmediaserver
    apt-get --purge remove plexmediaserver
    userdel plex


    And then try to reinstall the plugin... I have not seen your problem before. (edit- I have seen this a lot.)

    Thank you for your solution i was about to reinstall OMV

    THIS! Someone please give this man a cookie! I was going nuts trying to reinstall Plex. I tried uninstalling and purging, but I never thought of deleting the old Plex user. I had to reinstall Plex due to a hard drive migration, but the installer kept looking for the old HDD. Perhaps some old configuration files where kept under the plex user folder, which messed with the new installation
