Plex Update 1.10.1.4602 seems to break remote connectivity
-
So I installed the 1.10.1.4602 update for Plex on CentOS 7
service plexmediaserver stopyum -y install https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-media-server/1.10.1.4602-f54242b6b/plexmediaserver-1.10.1.4602-f54242b6b.x86_64.rpmservice plexmediaserver startThe moment I started it back up no one could connect remotely to me. I rebooted the server. Same situation. Posted on the Plex forums. They said to check the UPNP settings on my router and to disable it if it's enabled. It was disabled. I checked my router settings to verify everything was correct and it is.
They then said: Edit Preferences.xml with PMS stopped. Remove the references to LastMappedPort="xxx" and "LastManualMappedPort". Done. No change.
After two days of not having remote access I decided to uninstall PMS and reinstall it just to see.
rpm -e plexmediaserver
rm -rf /var/lib/plexmediaserver/
userdel plex
rebootreinstall plex
rebootScanned all of my content again. Exact same issue.
I'm assuming this update is bad because I have never had an issue updating before, but @JaredBusch seems to have installed it successfully. Can anyone confirm that they have had similar issues with this specific update?

I just updated mine (took a snapshot first in case) and I still have remote connectivity. However I am running mine on Ubuntu 17.10 instead of CentOS 7.

@brianlittlejohn That's disheartening. Trying to figure out why this occurred with an update when I confirmed everything was working correctly before it and I completely uninstalled and reinstalled Plex with no change. Bleh. This was the update. It doesn't even make sense.

@jaredbusch Whew. Thanks a lot. As an aside, you can just run
dnf -y install https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-media-server/1.9.7.4460-a39b25852/plexmediaserver-1.9.7.4460-a39b25852.x86_64.rpmand it won't shout at you for not being an upgrade? I thinkyumyells at me.Yeah it does. I'll have to uninstall it and then reinstall. This concludes the conversation with myself.

Well, it said successful, but my server is not available still locally either. Rebooting again and such.

@jaredbusch Did you get SElinux working with Plex btw? I know they promised it at one point but I haven't been following it

Had to rerun the setup wizard. after the downgrade.
I tried navigating to the local IP and it automatically fired the setup wizard.
