Cannot install Plex on Ultra2

[cmav]

Hi,

I had an old copy of Plex installed on my readynas ultra 2 however it was outdated so I decided to update it.

I went to the Plex site and downloaded the Intel version of Plex (I even tried the 2 Arm versions). On trying to install the app via admin interface I got the error "Update file is not valid for this architecture.".  So I tried to install the old app and try again but i still get this error.

Does anyone know why and how to fix this?

Many thanks

Hi @cmav

Kindly try this link I made, This should support OS 4 Plex Server App add-on

I edited the link, this is a new file

Hope this helps!

Hi @cmav

Welcome to the Community!

What firmware are you running? For Ultra 2 if right it should be intel 4.x, the Intel 6.x on the download site is for newer models. Support for OS 4 stopped according to this article.

I'm not sure if upgrading your Ultra 2 to OS 6 would help but you may want to try. Just note that NETGEAR does not support upgrade of Legacy NAS.

Other users who still have a copy of the previous version might be able to provide you a download link. 

Hope this helps!

Thanks for sending through the file however i get the error below "Update file is not valid for this architecture". Any ideas what it could be?

That’s a Windows executable not an add-on
