Upgrade seems to work fine for me, it's just taking a looooonnnnggggg time due to the chown (when I already had everything chown'd to plex). I'm currently at 5+ mins and counting ;) I guess my library is a good size... It may be worth seeing if /opt/plexmediaserver (or some file under that) is owned by plex and if not, do the chown. Otherwise, assume we already have plex owning everything and don't do it. Thanks!

New version uploaded. I upgrade my installed version and didn't seem to have any issues. I did notice they changed the log directory location. It is now in /opt/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs/

@dualcorex2 It might be enough to change ownership of /opt/plexmediaserver for user plex, and copy recursively the /usr/local/plexmediaserver/* directories that left in the migration. I would not use plexmediaserver as root. I eventually added user plex to users group for be able to see certain directories of my $HOME.

@arch-nemesis Thanks for the information. However, /usr/local/plexmediaserver/Library doesn't seem to exist, and I've come to terms that the library is gone. But it still won't let me make a new one/add sections. I followed all your other instructions.

@dualcorex2 Everything previously stored in /usr/local is now in /opt. The upgrade doesn't move your library, however. You have do do that yourself. # cp -R /usr/local/plexmediaserver/Library /opt/plexmediaserver/ You will want to verify the that everything belongs to the plex user, especially if you copied the library as root. # chown -R plex:plex /opt/plexmediaserver Additionally, the home directory of the plex user should be changed to the new location in /etc/passwd, for example: plex:x:999:999:Plex Media Server:/opt/plexmediaserver/:/bin/bash You said you changed it to run as root. You should be able to change it back to run as plex by editing the variables in /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver. Verify that it works, then you can safely remove the old directory # systemctl start plexmediaserver # systemctl status plexmediaserver (you might want to try it out, too) # rm -r /usr/local/plexmediaserver Did I miss anything?

So I may be a dummy, but I upgraded without reading the comments. After upgrade, I lost my libraries and I also have not been able to add a section to the new library. Any ideas why this might be? I changed it to run as root, and still no avail. Thanks.

Yea.. if you have it working don't bother "upgrading".. I don't move people's library folders because that takes too much of a chance if something goes wrong. If you are a new person, then this should work OOTB, if you have an existing version, then you will have to move your Library folder to /opt/plexmediaserver, and may/may not have to chown /opt/plexmediaserver to the user you use.

Maybe it sounds silly, but when I installed *-14 It does not copied my $PLEX_HOME/{Library,Application\ Data} ,$PLEX_HOME was in /usr, so I did it by hand. Also user plex didn't have access to /opt/plexmediaserver so I chown'ed to plex user recursively and it worked fine, also /opt was "listable" by 'plex' user. After this all ran OK, but I was having issues with the OOTB update.
