Side Project for Ubuntu/Nginx/Plex

Hello,

I'm looking for some assistance with my ubuntu website.

Basically I am creating an easier way to access my Plex Server for users.

So I built the index.html page, then built ngnix backend (excuse me I'm a bit new to the webdev world).

I set up my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file. I will upload the text of the file shortly.

I also put my index.html file in the /etc/nginx/sites-available/my file. I removed the default file also. I renamed my file in this folder for my site.

When I go to my website I get the login webpage and I login with my servers Public IP and my Plex token. It works but it says, loading Conent and Libraries then it automatically says:

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

I've verified the IP works as I can access Plex via the server IP:32400, but there is something I'm missing. I'm just looking for some help.

Thank you advance!

EDIT: Here are my files the Plex-Drive & my ngnix.conf

I got tired of AI tools charging $20/mo just to read long PDFs, so I built a cheaper alternative with unlimited pages. Looking for feedback!

Hey everyone,

I process a ton of long documentation and research papers. I started using AI to summarize them but kept hitting a frustrating wall: almost every tool out there either has tiny file size limits or charges a premium subscription just to unlock a reasonable page count.

I just wanted a simple way to process massive PDFs without constantly counting pages or hitting paywalls. So, I spent the last few weeks building my own solution: Summarix AI. Summarix AI - PDF Summarizer & Pro Intelligence

I wanted to make something that solves the core problem without the enterprise price tag. Here is what makes it different:

  • No Page Anxiety: The Pro tier is specifically designed to remove those annoying page caps. You can upload massive documents, technical manuals, or entire textbooks without it timing out or asking you to upgrade again.
  • Actually Affordable: By keeping the backend lean and integrating a straightforward Stripe checkout, I’ve priced the Pro tier to be extremely cheap while still covering API costs. It’s built for students, indie developers, and researchers — not enterprise budgets.
  • No Bloat: It does exactly what it says on the tin. Drag, drop, and get a high-quality summary instantly without navigating a maze of features you don't need.

I’m currently refining the app at summarix-ai-pdf-summarizer-pro-intelligence.ai.studio.

Since I'm still tweaking the infrastructure and the Stripe payment links, I would love some honest feedback from this community:

  1. Does the pricing model feel fair for the value?
  2. What is the absolute worst, most complex PDF you've tried (and failed) to summarize with other tools?

I'll be hanging out in the comments to answer questions and take notes. Any feedback, feature requests, or roasting is highly appreciated!
