Commented out the code.. Bad idea anyways

I just tested the upgrade again.. the service started up.. mind you it took a little bit.. Might need to rethink that chown -R for large libraries.

tmoore commented on 2013-09-09 03:01 (UTC)

Why do you have files with root permission? The chown -R plex should work. You are installing the package as root right?

Same problem than drdrewdown because I have some files with root permissions and the plex user can't touch them. Temporaly resolve removing recursive option (-R) in start_pms file.

now plexmediaserver won't start at all =\

tmoore commented on 2013-09-08 01:21 (UTC)

I'll add the following code to the start_pms.. Hopefully that gets you what you want. if [ -d "$PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR" ] then chown -R ${PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_USER} "$PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR" if [ ! $? -eq 0 ] then echo "WARNING COULDN'T CHOWN $PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_APPLICATION_SUPPORT_DIR files to ${PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_USER}, MAKE SURE I HAVE PERMISSON TO DO THAT!" exit 1 fi fi

Well, changing the PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_USER after the initial install isn't something I've thought of supporting.. If you know enough to change the user *after* an initial install/upgrade, I would assume you would know to change ownership's of all the files it owns as well. I wouldn't want the install or update script to be invasive to the system and start chown'ing files that *aren't* owned by plex_media_server_user, as that could cause a huge amount of damage if the error checking isn't correct.
