[SOLVED] Plexmediaserver Issue
by dave1953 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6DT35)
Hi. I'm constantly learning (from my mistakes) with Slackware 15.0 and love the way that the user can store .tgz and .txz package files once compiled and install them on a fresh Slackware installation. I've recently done this with plexmediaserver which I cannot get to run. I have followed the instructions and created the necessary group and user as per the slackbuild readme, I have also chmod 755 the rc.d plexmediaserver again as per the instructions. The localhost refuses to connect even after a reboot. Therefore the only conclusion I can draw is that "something" is missing. I installed Avahi and enabled it, thinking it might be that. No success. The only other thought I had is - does localhost require something which I do not have to make it work. Research suggests Apache server, perhaps? I would appreciate any thoughts on my dilemma, please. BTW I would not have a clue on how to install Apache server if that is the missing component. Thanks for reading this and any advice.
