Having the plex_request_nginx_server fail in loop with "Error: Could not find cert-v2.p12 in the Plex Media Server/Cache directory"

[JNordmeyer]

I have 98% of this set up and working. radarr, sonarr, kometa, overseer, and watchtower all in container manager on my Synology NAS. My Plex machine is a separate Mac Studio 2Ultra. I really liked the ability shown for requests that this code gives.

I do have a current wildcard certificate that I tried to place. No matter what I do to the file (sharing, permissions, etc), the process can't find it and loop crashes every 2 seconds. Getting NFS running on the Mac was hard enough. The Synology still can't see the NFS share. Any ideas what I am missing?

This does not use your custom certificate, but rather plex's built in one.

below is the config section I used. There is nothing in the directory specified. My Mac says the folder is NFS shared but the Synology can't find it. Is my issue the disconnect of NFS, or a basic misunderstanding of certificates. (Quite possible).

If you have a certificate.p12 file in Plex Media Server/Cache directory, make a copy of it and rename it to cert-v2.p12

It looks like they've updated PMS for mac and it now uses the name cert-v2.p12
