Error when configuring Plex Server

Configuration
1

I was prompted to configure my Plex Server thru a Hassio Notification, but I’m having issue configuring it.

I key in my X-Plex-Token (the numbers and text key, no URLs) that I got via the ‘view xml’ method. I have both ‘Use SSL’ and ‘Do not verify SSL’ both set to false.

When I click ‘confirm’, i get the following error:

“Failed to call service configurator/configure. invalid boolean value”

I’ve tried variations of the SSL settings, and tried including the URL as part of the token, but still can’t get it to go thru.

Any pointers as to what I should be looking for?

Same here, tried a fresh new installation and get the same error message every time!

It happens to me also. It really seems a bug. The error message is related to the “Use SSL” field (we’d probably get the same error by the next field but “Use SSL” triggers the error first). I tried with other values for “Use SSL”. Any boolean value (true, false, on, off) returns the error “invalid boolean value None”. If, for example, I try writing “test” as a value, I get this error: “invalid boolean value test”. Seems like boolean values get lost (transformed into null or empty string) and other strings are kept but, of course, they are not accepted as booleans.

Same issue here, hopefully it will get fixed

same here. tried with:

1,0,true,false,True,False and variations with " and ’

no luck yet.

Got it fixed!! If you are running hassio on a Raspberry Pi, go to your plex server - Settings - Network, and inside the network options scroll down to “List of IP adresses and Networks allowed without autentication” (or something like that, depends on your languaje, mine is in spanish) and inser your Pi´s internal ip (192.168.XX.XXX) -no port-. And thats it, now works flawlesly. Be sure to set the router to always give the same ip to your Pi

there is something weird on /usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/plex/media_player.py

both type fields are empty, which i suspect is an error.

i’ll give it a try, nice workaround.

Same issue here, tried all possible boolean values, on, true, 1, yes, false, no, off, 0,…

11

Anyone ever figure this out? Tried everything mentioned and I am still unable to get this to work.

I just did this from above and Plexmedia players show up without having to use the config

go to your plex server - Settings - Network, and inside the network options scroll down to “List of IP adresses and Networks allowed without autentication” (or something like that, depends on your languaje, mine is in spanish) and inser your Pi´s internal ip (192.168.XX.XXX) -no port-.

hey guys I was running into the same thing and it was driving me nuts. I did what Kelvin suggested from the Plex side going into Settings > Network > and in the list of IP addresses and Networks allowed without authentication I put in my HassIO internal ip.

It still did not work though, that is until I restarted HASS then my plex showed up and connected. Hopefully that works for you guys.

still not working here any luck ? :confused:

Have you tried my workaround?

I’ve made some changes to the Plex component for the upcoming 0.100 release that will automate most of the setup if your server has been “claimed” by a Plex account. If there’s anyone willing to test the new functionality in the 0.100b that comes out tomorrow (Wednesday, Oct 2), I’d love to get feedback before the official release a week later.

I´d like to test it!

Where can i get it?

Once the 0.100 beta is released (expected later today) and if you’re comfortable running a beta, you can follow the instructions in the documentation.

For Hass.io you can use these: https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/#run-the-beta-version-on-hassio
For venv-type installations you can use these: https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/updating/
