I would recommend you reboot your CasaOS to get the new updates.
Apologies, the tag in my Casaos was not set to latest.
You shouldn’t use the latest tags on anything BigBearCasaOS provides the updates.
Here is why:
Hey Big Bear Community! If you’re running Docker containers in your homelab, you’ve probably encountered discussions about Watchtower and the latest tag. These tools can be great for automating container updates and many homelab users run them successfully. However, it’s important to understand their behavior and potential risks so you can decide if they’re right for your setup.
Ah but the only other tag available in the dropdown is 1.42.1
That’s the latest version.
1.42.2.10156 is showing in Plex itself as available.
