Hi,
Have followed the tutorial here ([HOW-TO] Install NZBGet on Raspberry Pi) and all seems to install and set up fine but it won’t auto run. I can usually run it manually but recently have got this message when trying-
osmc@HTPC:~$ sudo systemctl start nzbget
Job for nzbget.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See “systemctl status nzbget.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details.
osmc@HTPC:~$
Any ideas? Ta
What’s the output from these 2 commands?
first is:
nzbget.service - NZBGet

What’s your /etc/systemd/system/nzbget.service file contents?
It’s your one from the tutorial; however, I did amend it using the tutorial on nzbget site, which didn’t work, so deleted content and added yours back. My concern is that when I wrote out I appended. Would that keep both file contents?
That being said, when I open it up , I only see the text from your tutorial
Why are you using a user called nzbget? If the contents of /etc/systemd/system/nzbget.service are looking for group and user osmc it won’t work with another user
Saw it on a forum post where you had posted previously and thought it might reveal something useful.
What do I need to do then? Ta
So paste the output from sudo systemctl status nzbget.service and sudo journalctl -xe
Also try the nzbget.log file which is probably in the main directory you set in the nzbget setup

Is your external storage mounted here? Have you let OSMC auto-mount it?
Am I supposed to edit with a drive name there as I had just pasted your contents directly?
Well, it’s started up. I edited the config file and removed those obsolete entries.
But it doesn’t survive a reboot, have to manually start
Please paste the contents of;
ls /media
osmc@HTPC:~$ ls /media
README disk1 disk2 disk3
Which disk is the media on?
Movies on two drives, Tv on another
OK, try this;
sudo systemctl list-units --type=mount
Output for me is this; (I only have one external HD mounted)
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
* -.mount error active mounted Root Mount
dev-mqueue.mount loaded active mounted POSIX Message Queue File System

I am interested in the 3rd line media-externalHD.mount loaded active mounted /media/externalHD as this is where my drive is mounted. You’ll be looking for the mounts with /media/disk1 /media/disk2 /media/disk3.
Add these to the file /etc/systemd/system/nzbget.service in the After block. See Below for whole file I am using;
[Unit]
Description=NZBGet
After=network.target media-externalHD.mount
[Service]
User=osmc
Group=osmc
Type=forking
ExecStart=/opt/nzbget/nzbget -c /opt/nzbget/nzbget.conf -D
ExecStop=/opt/nzbget/nzbget -Q
ExecReload=/opt/nzbget/nzbget -O
KillMode=process
Restart=on-failure
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Of course you’ll need to append After=network.target with your outputs that are relevant to you.
Save & quit
Reload the systemctl daemon;
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
Now reboot to see if it restarts at boot
Sorry, when you say to add after=network.target media-externalHD.mount
are all entries to be added on the same line with just a space between each?
