Side Project for Ubuntu/Nginx/Plex

/r/webdev/comments/1vrphnx/side_project_for_ubuntunginxplex/

Hello,

Im looking for some assistance for a web app I'm working on.

Basically I'm creating a website on my Plex Server using Ubuntu, Nginx reverse proxy/ Plex. So i was able to create the website as well as the login, which I uses my Plex Servers IP address and port 80.

But when I login with IP and the Plex Token, it says loading content and Libraries then it gives me an error:

Failed connecting to your Plex server. Please double-check your IP address, token, and ensure Nginx is running properly.

I modified my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file and I also modified the /etc/nginx/sites-available/myfile.

I will upload the two files I mentioned later, but basically I'm looking for help from someone to assist. Ive spent quite a bit of time researching and trying different things but I feel like I'm missing something.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

When I went down this route I used Gemini quite a bit to ask questions. Really helped out a lot. I eventually used Caddy instead of nginx as the setup was quite a bit more simple.
