Getting an ERR on every single folder Missing or Invalid Folder: #46

Hi JohnKiddjr, hope you have seen this issue before and I'm just not seeing it. Problem with ERR on each item. Running command in the user/Downloads folder. Logs to folder in same.

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22631.2715] PlexMatchGenerator Version: 0.9.2-rc2

Using this command with a: PlexMatchGenerator-Windows-x86.exe --url http://192.168.#.##:32400 --token xxxxxxxxxxx -r /DS920PLUS/MyMedia:/volume2/MyMedia -l C:\Users\vip95\Downloads\Logs -lib "TV Shows" -lib "Movies"

Resulting in all folders getting the below: 16:01:52 ERR] Missing or Invalid Folder: /DS920PLUS/MyMedia/Movies/Young Frankenstein (1974) [16:01:52 INF] Processed results for Movies: 250 processed [16:01:52 ERR] Missing or Invalid Folder: /DS920PLUS/MyMedia/TV/1883 (2021) [16:01:55 INF] Processed results for TV Shows: 252 processed [16:01:55 INF] Library Audiobooks skipped because it is not in the list of libraries to process [16:01:55 INF] Library Chris-Music skipped because it is not in the list of libraries to process [16:01:55 INF] Library Home Videos skipped because it is not in the list of libraries to process [16:01:55 INF] Operation Completed

I've checked the existing folders but no new .plexmatch file. Am I overlooking something?

Looks like you're on Windows, but the path provided to the -r command isn't a valid Windows path:

/DS920PLUS/MyMedia <- This is the local path, but this is not a valid Windows Path. /volume2/MyMedia <- This is the path local to your plex server

Assuming DS920PLUS is a file server of some kind that is accessed via hostname, the correct path should be: \\DS920PLUS\MyMedia

Thanks for the quick response, tried this command with the backslash instead of forward slashes, but same error: PlexMatchGenerator-Windows-x86.exe --url http://192.168.#.##32400 --token xxxxxxxxx -r \DS920PLUS\MyMedia:/volume2/MyMedia -l C:\Users\vip95\Downloads\Logs -lib "TV Shows" -lib "Movies". And you are correct in that DS920Plus is the server (NAS) where the media files live. /volume2/MyMedia is what Plex uses as Plex is installed on the Synology NAS.

This however has worked now. PlexMatchGenerator-Windows-x86.exe --url http://192.168.#.##:32400 --token xxxxxxxxxx -r \DS920PLUS\MyMedia:/volume2/MyMedia -l C:\Users\vip95\Downloads\Logs -lib "TV Shows" -lib "Movies" Two backslashes needed for this in windows. As per the usual! I'm checking the output now. Thanks for the extra eyeballs.

*For some reason the backslashes are not showing up in this forum. But read the DS920PLUS as having two backslashes, not one. Probably occurred in your post as well, leading to the confusioning. :)

You are correct, I forget markdown hates backslashes :)

Closing as complete. Windows paths on network get two backslashes!
