Can you post your /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver Also, what happens if you run this directly (as that's all the systemctl is really doing): sudo /usr/local/plexmediaserver/start_pms &

Also, change this line in /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver to be PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR="${PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_HOME}/Library/Application Support" I'll fix that up in the source.. The key is always to have the user that runs the software be able to read/write/create in both the HOME and APPLICATION_SUPPORT directories... It does some crazy things behind the scenes.. I'm not sure what the developers were thinking sometimes, but I don't have access to source.

Hmm.. So you changed the PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_HOME to be /home/pms/lib/plexmediaserver? In that case, just make sure that either user "plex" or whatever user you are running it as has full read/write permissions to that directory on down (i.e. chmod -R plex:plex /home/pms/lib/plexmediaserver) I'll try and reproduce it on my end if you can give me exactly how you have it setup.

Currently this only works if you point it to your old library (in my case /home/pms/lib/plexmediaserver) If you try to recreate with the new path you chose with user plex, it complains it cannot make the Logs dir. After manually creating that dir, it complains that it's missing plugins and fails to start.

- Added stanza to start_pms for autocreation of directory that Plex complains about (plex also autoremoves this directory on shutdown) $PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins/Framework.bundle/Contents/Resources/Platforms/Linux/i386/Frameworks/

New version: -Disabled using syslog by default: The logs normally live in /usr/local/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs. They are broken out by daemon and much easier to read there than in one big file. Plus, by using the web interface you can turn on/off debugging/verbose (myplex). You can change location to /var/log/plexmediaserver using /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver -Removed creating plexmediaserver.log, chowning, etc.
