A shell-based command-line utility for repairing, optimizing, and maintaining Plex Media Server SQLite databases. It runs from a terminal or SSH session with sufficient privileges to read and write the Plex database files.

Use cases

  • repair a corrupted Plex Media Server database
  • vacuum and optimize the Plex database to reclaim space
  • fix 'database is malformed' errors in Plex
  • rebuild indexes in the Plex library database
  • back up the Plex database before making changes
  • check Plex database integrity from the command line

When to choose

  • your Plex Media Server database is corrupted or showing integrity errors
  • you want to optimize or vacuum a large Plex database
  • you manage Plex on Linux, macOS, or NAS from a terminal or SSH session
  • you need a safe, scripted way to back up and repair the Plex DB

When to avoid

  • you run Plex Media Server 1.43.0 or newer, where the tool is currently incompatible (FTS repair disabled)
  • you need a graphical tool for database maintenance
  • you want to repair databases other than Plex Media Server's
