unrarall is not extracting in XBMCbuntu

[hrvstr]

i think i set it up correctly: i've done the chmod, installed: unrar,7zip and cksfv

when i run this command:

bash unrarall -v /path/to/rar/files/

i only get this:

Detecting clean up hooks...
Found unrarall-clean-covers_folders
Found unrarall-clean-nfo
Found unrarall-clean-osx_junk
Found unrarall-clean-rar
Found unrarall-clean-sample_folders

Using virtual clean-up hook none
Looking for unrar...found
Using "unrar" to extract rar files
Working over directory "/path/to/rar/files/"
no rar files extracted

although there are severeal rar files in the folder.

would anybody be kind enough to help?

Hi,

That's weird, so lets try making unrarall executable first with "chmod +x unrarall" and then just use ./unrarall The hashbang will sort out what to do better, just in case XBMCbuntu do something crazy and alias/symlink bash to dash.

Can you give me the output to the following (sorry there's so much but hopefully we can work out what's going on with this info): $ bash --version $ unrar --version | head -2 $ ls -lah /path/to/rar/files/ $ find "/path/to/rar/files/" -iregex '.*.(rar|001)$' $ file --mime /path/to/rar/files/a_random_rar_file.rar

FYI you do not need cksfv nor 7zip, 7zip will be used if unrar is not present and cksfv will simply not be used if not present.

ok, executed "chmod +x unrarall" again. i should have mentioned that i am doing this on a NTFS-formatted drive mounted in XBMCbuntu.

when i use "./unrarall /path/to/folder/" the extractions works as expected:

output:

hrvstr@XBMC:~/unrarall$ ./unrarall /path/to/folder/
Working over directory "/path/to/folder/
Extracting (e) "/path/to/folder/file.rar"...ok

That find command got parsed wrong i don't know how you're supposed to send them in these silly comment boxes. It should be like this http://dpaste.com/1385207/

The rest looks good tbh.

So I don't understand. You're saying that:

• this doesnt work: $ bash unrarall -v /path
• but this does? $ ./unrarall -v /path

Can you give the full output of both and show pwd ?

That should do exactly the same thing... /usr/bin/env bash should return either /bin/bash or /usr/bin/bash which should be bash according to your --version ouput. Can you take a look at what /usr/bin/env bash --version is giving you?

I'm don't think NTFS would make a difference as long as you have write permission as user which it looks like you do.
