I installed plex in jail (like in the HOWTO), I have access to plex WebGui.
my movies are located in /mnt/DaniNAS/Filme/
they are mount to jail in /mnt/DaniNAS/jail/plex/mnt/Filme/
so fstab should be:
Code: Select all
/mnt/DaniNAS/Filme /mnt/DaniNAS/jail/plex/mnt/Filme nullfs ro 0 0
with filebrowser they are visible in /mnt/DaniNAS/jail/plex/mnt/Filme/
in plex WebGUI I linked to /mnt/Filme
But don't find anything!?

you need to create filme inside the jail:
from shell:
Code: Select all
mkdir /mnt/DaniNAS/jail/plex/mnt/Filme
and better if use rw (read/write ) instead of ro (read/only)
so your fstab must be:
Code: Select all
/mnt/DaniNAS/Filme /mnt/DaniNAS/jail/plex/mnt/Filme nullfs rw 0 0
once done , restart jail ( stop - wait 20 or 30 second and restart ), if you log in your jail using putty, revise that this time you can see your video media in /mnt/Filme inside the jail, do a ls -l to be sure.

I can already see media in this folder. The problem is, that plex do not show them/ find them, if I rescan or restart.

change fstaw to rw (read/write) and force plex to do a new rescan

I tried, but still no movies listed. Any other ideas?

only, one, delete your actual selection of folders, and select one new, this time use a subfolder with less videos on it, if works, try to add more paths, if not, i'm out of ideas.

This sounds like the exact issue i was having.
I fixed this by changing the permissions of the folders and by making the movies, pictures, and photos directories owned by root and set the group access for wheel as i had changed these to my own that i created previously.
To do this I used winscp
hope this helps

I changed permissions of folders, and now it works.
Thank you!
