Add-on installation error

Hello,

I'm trying to install PlexConnect add-on, and Git add-on, which can be found here: http://forums.plex.tv/index.php/topic/70190-plexconnect-on-a-nas-drive-readynas/

My problem is, that every time I try to install either of those add-ons, via the Frontview/Add New, it simply responds with the message, "Installation of this add-on conflicts with an existing service. Aborting installation.".

I have these add-ons already installed: PlexMediaServer, Python2.7, Logitech Media Server and Transmission.

What am I doing wrong?

  • Ok, so inspired by other alike threads, I decided to delete two entries I already had in /etc/default/services. The entries was named PLEXCONNECT=1, and PLEXCONNECTSUPPORT=1. I was not sure whether to delete them, or simply put a 0.

    After that, I did a install of the PlexConnect add-on, which was successful. Atleast so far.

    Then afterwards my Frontview won't display when I try to access it, even though the NAS is running flawlessly beside that. I can still access everything beside the Frontview.

    I have done a OS-reinstall, but that didn't help with Frontview, so I'm not really sure if the PlexConnect was actually installed and is working, and if it's the reason that Frontview is not able to display.

    Please help.

    You had to delete those lines.

    If you do a


    # tail -n 20 /var/log/frontview/error.log


    What do you see?

    What happens if you do this?:

    # /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -t && /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -k graceful
  • NAS:~# /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -t && /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -k graceful
    apache-ssl: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.1.20 for ServerName
    Syntax OK
    apache-ssl: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.1.20 for ServerName
    httpd not running, trying to start


    Still isn't working.
  • /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -t && /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -k graceful


    This did the trick suddently. Not sure why it didn't work in the first place.
