STEP01 - running Plex on DSM 6 Use only versions in this tutorial So before you start with the Plex upgrade on your DSM 6, this tutorial will start with a fresh install of Plex on the active DSM 6 instance, add a new library, just to show that all will be well with the process IF YOU FOLLOW IT to the letter. Read the whole tutorial and then proceed with the update.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Before you rush over and install DSM 7 over your current DSM 6 with Plex already running, DO NOT do that. This tutorial will focus on a bare-metal installation (not Docker), as that's the one that needs attention.Īll the needed information are accessible here: In the following tutorial, I will show and demonstrate a short explanation also accessible on the official forums.ĬhuckPa (member of the official Plex team) is the one taking credit for all the help and support that he has given all the users struggling to get this off the ground as well as tweaking the Plex install to be compatible with DSM 7. While Plex team was aware of this long before the final release was pushed, there is still a process that needs to be respected in order to continue using Plex on DSM 7. One of those rules is that the apps can no longer run as root on the system. With DSM 7 a lot of apps got axed from being supported by the new OS, and those that will continue to work will demand the developers to adapt to the new security rules. Synology was hard at work to bring us many new features, some visible, some not so much as well as some new and exciting apps and services ( C2 new lineup), but also, they made some changes when it comes to permissions and how 3rd party apps work with new DSM OS. This package can be downloaded from site as part of the DSM 7 installer: The version that supports Hyper Backup Plex configuration backupĪbout two weeks ago, DSM 7 came out and we were all so eager to upgrade (who could), but there is also an important note here to take away from this update. If you want to participate in it, use the following link, and download the package for your NAS in order to get your working DSM 7 Plex setup into a working condition to be able to backup using Hyper Backup. To get past this, the Plex team is working on a version of the Plex installer that will mitigate and solve this problem. UPDATE: If you have already migrated to DSM 7 and have a working Plex install (following this particular article), then you might know that it is not possible to backup Plex configuration using Hyper Backup.
