SB transmission downloads set as "UNCAT"

[jaybone2012]

Hi Guys.

Got the SABNZBD part of nzbToMedia working great.

However I am trying to get the SickBeard and Transmission working nicely with the script.

For some reason, it is classing all my TV shows as "UNCAT" and not processing them.

See example log.

I think it might be something to do with my folder structure.

Structure is currently...

/volume1/downloads/complete/tv shows /volume1/downloads/complete/movies /volume1/downloads/complete/music

Do I need to make these more specific to the actual downloader?

For example...

/volume1/downloads/transmission/complete /volume1/downloads/sabnzbd/complete

I read the guide in the wiki, but I wasn't too sure because I am using echel0n fork of SickBeard and don't need blackhole/watch folders for torrents.

[clinton-hall]

so what category have you got ste in autoProcessMedia.cfg [SickBeard] category?

I think the issue might be having "tv shows" as a category... the space can cause issues with string comparisons. i personal;ly would use either "tv", "series", or "tv_shows"

So set SickBeard to download to /volume1/downloads/complete/tv_shows and then set autoProcessMedia.cfg [SickBeard] category=tv_shows

this should work.

Thanks will give that a go and let you know On 09/05/2014 10:18 AM, "Clinton Hall" notifications@github.com wrote:

[jaybone2012]

in the cfg file my category for sickbeard was only "tv" so it didn't match with the folder structure anyway.

have adjusted, will let you know

[clinton-hall]

yeah, that explains a lot... It may in-fact handle "tv shows" but i just prefer not to use spaces ;)

[jaybone2012]

ok so I created a new folder /volume1/downloads/complete/tv_shows

updated the config file

now I think I am having some permissions issues.

I cannot see that the torrenttomedia script is even running.

my new downloads are sitting in the new folder.

the postprocess.log has not changed

I have changed everything in the nzbToMedia folder to have root permissions

Also transmission is running as root user.

SickBeard is not running as "root" is this a problem?

[jaybone2012]

actually I lie, SickBeard is running as root user as well

[clinton-hall]

previously the script did run... if it stopped, then I am guessing by editing the .cfg file you change it's permissions? Were these files previously owned by root? is there any error in Transmission logs?

[jaybone2012]

yeah the script has run previously, so in my attempt to change everything to root and 0777 I must have broken something.

trying to remember how I got transmission logging to work

ok got it, and yes it looks like it calls the script, but nothing is happening...

Something happened the other day to my root users default shell when I was trying to get ffmpeg installed.

I had to change root user in /etc/passwd from root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/ash to root:x:0:0:root:/root:/opt/bin/bash

Can't remember but the files might have been previously owned by an account in the user group. I will try change and see what happens.

But I

[jaybone2012]

changed everything in the nzbToMedia folder back to an account in the "users" group, full permissions, still nothing.

strange that sabznbd has no problems running the scripts

[jaybone2012]

ok I tried to run the script manually using /usr/local/python/bin/python2.7 ./TorrentToMedia.py

and got this...

just for shits and giggles I tried the dev branch, this is as far as I got

Got the dev branch to work

Had to set everything to users group, but then when the script ran some new files were created as root user and this was holding things up.

Re-did all the permissions again and everything seems to be running smoothly.

interesting.. I was just looking at this and thought i found a bug... but no... In any case, i have fixed some logging.
