Unable to Upgrade PLEX Media Server to Newest Release
I am unable to upgrade my PLEX Media Server to plexmediaserver-ros6binaries_1.5.3.3580-4b377d295_amd64.deb
I have always been able to update the server without issues. I am running 6.6.1 OS
I am also unable to UNINSTALL Plex Media Server. When I try to do EITHER the NAS says I cannot perform either.
Wonder if anyone can help? Thanks

I have successfully upgraded to 6.7.0 OS. I attempted to upgrade my PLEX server again with no success. This time I did NOT receive any error messages. The installation screen was just "stuck" in the processing mode (please wait).
I finally was able to uninstall my current version of PLEX server and was going to do a fresh install.
Now..PLEX does NOT show up in Available Apps screen. I downloaded PLEX server from the PLEX website for Netgear X86. Tried to install again with the SAME ISSUE. Stuck at installation screen processing (please wait). No disk activity. Also, when the installation screen says "processing" I do NOT get a status bar (installation progress bar) below the processing message. TOTALLY SCREWED NOW!!
Tried installing the different app from the Available Apps menu. Installed Logitech Media Server NT and it installed with no issues.
HELP@!@@@

It appears that I have found the issue. Once I DISABLED the AntiVirus protection the latest version of PLEX Media server installed successfully!!!

For some reason I can't get plex to update either now on my ReadyNAS 516 with OS 6..7.1 installed. The current version of PLEX I'm running is 1.5.5.3634. I've now tried updaing to 1.5.6.3790, 1.7.0.3840 and the version released today 1.7.1.3856. I turn off PLEX and try to install and I get a error. I even tried disabling the Anti-Virus and that didn't change anything.
I'm updating the same way as always. Not sure why it's not working now.
