Experiencing issues with docker compose

[dannydanchev]

Hey I am in the process of setting up my very first home media server on an old Athlon X2 machine. I've successfuly managed to get the *arr stack running with hardlinks set up as per the TRaSH guides and needed a simple and lightweight way to stream my media files. So far midarr-server seems to be exactly what I am looking for but I am facing some issues regarding the docker compose setup.

I keep my docker-compose.yml files each in a seperate directory under /srv/<service-name> and then each container data resides in /srv/<service-name>/appdata. To "connect" them together I have created a docker network called docker-network.

Following the docker compose example in the README I created a new database-data volume but after running docker compose up I got the following error: All dependencies are up to date psql: error: connection to server on socket "/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: No such file or directory Crash dump is being written to: erl_crash.dump... midarr exited with code 1

I also tried keeping the database under /srv/midarr/data but got the same error. My docker-compose.yml is attached bellow:

I am quite new to managing containers with docker compose and would really appreciate some feedback on what I might be doing wrong.

Running Debian 12 with Docker version 24.0.5.

Hi sorry to hear you've had some issues.

Only time I managed to get a different output was when following the docker-compose.yml file in the master branch and I added a /app directory for midarr in but then got this output Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: exec: "/app/entry.sh": stat /app/entry.sh: no such file or directory: unknown

^This is similar to the error logged by my Raspberry Pi before we added arm64 support. Our release build supports architectures amd64 and arm64 which I would have thought your machine falls under amd64

Could you try running Midarr on a more recent machine and see if that works?

I ran a fresh README docker compose on an Intel i7 ubuntu server without any issue.

[trueChazza]

Oh never mind, I misread the errors. It looks like Midarr does successfully build, but crashes when looking for the entry point script.

[dannydanchev]

I tried forking the repo and running the docker-compose.yml and that one does start successfuly. I believe I might be experiencing some sort of permission issue? For example recyclarr in the same /srv/recyclarr/... directory starts, but when I try to create a config file it fails to do so. I had to run sudo chown -R 1000:1000 /srv/recyclarr/appdata and that fixed the issue. However trying the same with midarr doesn't seem to help. I am using hotio's docker images and he seems to have PUID and PGID under the environment tab in his compose files. Trying to add them in midarr doesn't help thoe.

[trueChazza]

I was able to replicate the issue. Midarr will crash if either your Radarr or Sonarr is unreachable. Please make sure their config are both set and correct.

[trueChazza]

Can you give this a try? Just put in your Radarr and Sonarr details:

Success!! Using the provied docker-compose.yml I was able to start the container and launch the web interface. Only had to add my media library and I am watching. Would it be possible to have the postgresql-data volume follow my current mappings and be stored in /srv/midarr/data? And how would I integrate my docker-network in the compose file?

Would it be possible to have the postgresql-data volume follow my current mappings and be stored in /srv/midarr/data? And how would I integrate my docker-network in the compose file?

I was able to achieve this by using the following docker-compose.yml edited to better fit the others I have.

After running docker system prune -a and then recreating the container from scratch everything works as expected :) (love the UI so far <3)

After taking a more in depth look at the error logs I was experiencing previously and then taking into account the compose file you provided (mentioning that both radarr and sonarr data is required) I can confidently say that this was user error on my part. I only included the radarr API key and deleted the parts mentioning sonarr.

Here are the full logs from back when I was experiencing the issue:

Thank you for helping me resolve an issue caused by me not properly reading and configuring a simple docker compose file facepalm

[trueChazza]

Ah good to hear you were able to resolve this. Thank you for posting detailed info and for your feedback.

I think this could have been easier to resolve if the error logs were more detailed as to what was failing, so I've added a couple tickets to account. Hopefully be in the next release 😄
