  • I have read the README.md on the project homepage
  • I have checked if identical issue already exists
  • I have tried downgrading to find version that can be used as a workaround

The problem

Unable to log in to Plex due to too many requests via API when initiating the a container via Docker

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Created a new file docker-compose.yml based on the recommended setup
  2. Ran sudo docker compose run --rm plextraktsync sync

Expected behavior

Expecting the next step of the configuration (select a Plex media server) - I was able to do this when configuring via pipx install

Inspect of problematic items

No response

Workarounds

When installing the app via pipx, everything works and I can log in to both Plex and Trackt. I can set up a cron job to schedule, so arguably, I have achieved what I needed here.
However, my preference would be to deploy it via Docker.

While not seemingly related (to me at least), I ended up resolving this by stopping the container, setting it to Interactive + TTY as part of the console options (I did this via Portainer), and then starting the container again - this time the configuration ran through and completed.
