Kometa inside the container can't see IPs on the host unless you have the container attached to the host network.

172.18.0.15 : 32400 which i grabbed from looking at my plex private IP

[chazlarson]

OK, sure, that seems fine. You're using the unofficial lsio container; maybe that has something to do with it.

You are specifying the plex URL as http://172.18.0.15:32400, yeah?

[chazlarson]

Kometa's just attempting to open a connection and that attempt is timing out. You could try increasing the timeout. Is Plex perhaps busy doing maintenance or something?

Got it all to work, thanks for your help, plex wasnt on the default docker network as i thought it was :)
