# Plex A self hosted plex server that is basically the vanilla plex docker container. ### Requirements The container expects its mounted folders to exist already, before it's created. Either create the following or mount a drive to /data/plex that has your data. - `/data/persistent/plex/tvseries` - `/data/persistent/plex/movies` - `/data/persistent/plex/photos` - `/data/persistent/plex/homevideos` - `/data/persistent/plex/transcode` (If Docker has been installed with snap, while installing the OS, you'll have issues here. It's better to seperately install docker-ce and docker-compose. ### Start with Docker Compose: `docker-compose up -d` ### Start with Plain Docker `docker run -d --name=plex --net=host -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 -e VERSION=docker -e PLEX_CLAIM= `#optional` -v /data/persistent/plex/library:/config -v /data/persistent/plex/tvseries:/tv -v /data/persistent/plex/movies:/movies -v /data/persistent/plex/transcode:/transcode --restart always ghcr.io/linuxserver/plex` ### Notes When navigating to plex, assuming no nginx routing is happening, you must go to `http://[ip address]:32400/web/index.html#!/` for first time setup. Just going to port 32400 doesn't work for some reason until after the setup is complete.
