Some Watchlist "Problems"

[dominikheiss]

Hey guys,

I managed to get everything working in my UNRAID environment, despite the fact, that it's throwing errors from the Watchlists others users using my Plex server (does this only work for "local users"? Also my watchlist is being created, but not copied to cache :( Don't know where to start sadly...I hope someone can support me :)

I also couldn't use my public dns name for my plex server (even valid certificates and stuff, but it told me "token is malformed"...)

I did not update it today. I think yesterday's commit.

Uhm that's odd, just to be sure, the script you are using, when did you get it? Because I did commit 5h ago, just want to be sure it is the latest one you are using

If you don't mind testing the latest one as I did change some stuff and fixed others, hopefully it fixes your new issues as well...

I've reversed some changes, just updated the repository, it did start giving the same issues on my end too (even tough I run it like 5 times with me playing around with files and permissions earlier and it gave me no issues)...

[dominikheiss]

Hey, I just ran the updated version and got the same error with the same file :/ I try to delete watched-file and run again

[dominikheiss]

Now it moves stuff to the array, after deleting watched-cache. I don't know what's up :)

[bexem]

might have put the wrong paths in the cache file. Let me know if it continue to work. Otherwise this the same version you were using before updating at all: https://pastebin.com/w97WAjk4 Sorry about this, it was literally working fine for me and also another user, then it started giving issues, and because my server is just crashing I can't even test properly anymore! Sorry again!

UPDATE: I've, once again, committed another update, just because the permissions were not set consistently all the time. Now it should and appears so judging by my testing and another user! 🎉

[dominikheiss]

I can also confirm the new version is working!

[dominikheiss]

Mhhh... sadly I got the same error again. Had to remove the watched-cache again and then it worked again ;) Is it only me?

Is it exactly the same error as your last log? Error checking free space and moving media files to the cache: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: (I am aware "to the cache" in this case is actually meant to say "to the array", I alway forget to fix that text)

What permissions does the Show and Season folder have? And, when removing the watched cache file it would actually move that same file with no issues?

Also (I need to start using version number inside the script), considering your previous comment, you are using the latest commit, right?

[dominikheiss]

Yeah, was the same error as you mentioned: 2023-09-01 17:45:16,278 - CRITICAL - Error checking free space and moving media files to the cache: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/mnt/user/data/media/movies/temporary/HD/The Machine (2023)/The Machine (2023)-Bluray-1080p-x264 AC3[DE+EN] [EN+DE].mkv'

The permissions are "nobody" as owner and rwx as actual permission. Yeah right, after I deleted the watched-cache it works. -> the empty folder stayed on the cache though....which is also weird.

I had the latest revision of yours.

[bexem]

The permissions appear correct then. About the folder, to be fair I never thought of that, I've always focused on moving the file rather, leaving the folders behind, should probably sort that out.

I did a commit last night (~10h ago), did not change much, just the order on when the script resets its umask to then give the right permissions to files and folders and, finally, the "to the array" incorrect text. Unfortunately it is not tested as my cache drive is sort of dead, so I can't run my own script currently ☹️

[dominikheiss]

Oh okay, dead cache drive sucks. I really don't know where to search for a solution. I think I have to disabled the "wachted-cache" feature, as it only works when it recreates it. When it is present I get the "CRITICAL - Error checking free space and moving media files to the array" message.

[bexem]

I will definitely take a look at it. It's odd that I didn't make any changes to the watched media or the caching system. The last time I used the script, it was working okay. Additionally, the other active user (there might be more, I hope) of the script hasn't reported any issues either.

Nevertheless, when I come around to rewriting the script, I'll ensure that it's handled better, I suppose. At least it functions without the cache. To be fair, since it's fetched locally, it shouldn't significantly impact the run time of the script.

The watchlist, on the other hand, could have been more troublesome without cache. The funny part is that they use the same functions.
