Stop/Start the Plex Services?

Post by BigDad »

What is the telnet or SSH command to stop and start the Plex Media Server on TOS? I've looked all over and can't find one that even lists running services. I need to stop the service in order to delete the file mentioned in this article https://forums.plex.tv/t/not-refreshing ... /500136/36, as I'm experiencing the problem of no posters showing up on a Reset.

Thanks for your response. I fixed things by going the nuclear route: uninstalled Plex app, restart TOS, SSH in as root and delete the Plex folder and all subdirs, restart TOS, install and configure Plex Server app, re-scan all the libraries. Things seem to be working OK now.
