So, I woke up to an email from Plex subject as quoted above.
They have some explanation and then how to info on resetting. Resetting the password in itself took 2 goes as the page decided to refresh itself before I could submit and had to do it over again. Once done, I could login to the app but I couldn’t access my server.
I spent about an hour working through the links they supply. Completely and utterly useless. I have the official Docker container setup. I ended up using the basic info from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PleX/comments/wwje5x/i_cant_claim_server_after_password_update/
Essentially I didn’t do anything other than login to the container where my Docker is and ran
curl -X POST ‘http://127.0.0.1:32400/myplex/claim?token=claim-xxxxx-xxxxx’
Where the claim token is from https://account.plex.tv/claim
It took a few seconds and spammed the console with a bunch of info. I then restarted the container and all was well again.
Plex, how is it that a third party forum can contain such simple information that works and yet ALL of your guides don’t contain this??? Ridiculous.
Thanks to furfix on Reddit for the quick and simple fix that ACTUALLY WORKS.
