The locale is no longer needed. Also just added a troubleshooting section on the wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Plex#Troubleshooting

I never needed generate en_US then I did generate and did not work.

Thank you Slash and Psynigmashi. I think I didn't explain well what my problem is. I've already installed Plex media server couple of week ego (using yaourt!) and it is working well right now too. But after last Manjaro update pack installed PMS became outdated and Octopi says it needs to update. When I tried to update PMS I got the error message. I understand what should I do but first I have to study how to edit PKGBUILD.

Did you make sure you generated the en_US locale? Follow what it says on the Locale article in the Arch Linux wiki. If you already did that and it still doesn't work, try restarting your computer. This was driving me nuts before because I did everything it said, but I couldn't get it to work. I restarted my computer and tried it and it finally worked, so a restart might be all you need.

I can install plex but I cant start the plex-media-server with systemctl. I tried all the recomendation and didnt work.

Psynigmashi commented on 2014-12-26 22:25 (UTC)

Thank you Slash. I edited the PKGBUILD like alucryd described and reinstalled it and it seems to be working fine so thankfully I didn't have to uninstall it first. @steelman I tried installing it multiple times with yaourt and aura. I checked the wiki, but there doesn't seem to be a way (at least as far as I can see) to edit the PKGBUILD first before installing. You'll have to build it manually like Slash described. If you're still confused I would check the Arch User Repository article on the Arch Linux wiki page. That's how I learned to install packages that wouldn't work with yaourt.

Slash commented on 2014-12-26 16:55 (UTC)

You will need to download the tarball, modify the PKGBUILD (per alucryd's instructions) and run "makepkg". I'm not sure how to do that with yaourt, but you need to modify the PKGBUILD prior to building since it is currently relying on pacman 4.2 features that are only in the [testing] repo.

steelmann commented on 2014-12-26 11:15 (UTC)

Sorry of bother you Slash but can you explain how to "building it again and reinstalling"? If I use a "yaourt -S plex-media-server" command in terminal and when it ask me: *Continue building plex-media-server? [Y/n]" I answer [Y]. Then the building and installing starts but at the end of the process I get this error message: . . . cp: cannot stat ‘usr/lib/plexmediaserver’: No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting... ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build plex-media-server. ==> Restart building plex-media-server ? [y/N] Here I choose [Y] again and the process starts from the beginning. I really don't know what should I do.

Slash commented on 2014-12-26 07:39 (UTC)

Building it again and reinstalling should work, you shouldn't need to uninstall first.
