I looked at my version of sickrage and is the same as yours. Hmm… Weird, I looked at versions on both sickrage pages and i didn’t find this version. i don’t understands what happened you can use my script for creating backup of settings and data of sickrage couchpotato and transmission. Or you can manualy copy this files somewhere. Sickrage:
cache.db,config.ini,failed.db,sickbeard.db. and after installation, you have to stop service and then replace it, after this start again service. I will look or even try the same thing later or tomorrow. If you will try before me, could you please report back if it’s helped?
I try but didn’t work for me. Keeps show “no update needed”
Funny thing It’s happened the same to me. I need to search on internet about that or about newer version. If I will find solution, I will reply.
Thanks! I appreciate that! But for now I’m happy that I have automatic post processing again.
I think I know now what is the problem, wrong git repo. Sometime back they say there is new repo for sickrage and I update it. But now it’s look that this one is not the right one, but I know there where updates while back. I tried to use other repo, but it doesnt start. I will create backup and restore on fresh copy of installation or uninstall and install with new repo. I think this version should be used and testet: GitHub - SiCKRAGE/SiCKRAGE: Mirror of OFFICIAL SiCKRAGE
When I wil test it and if it would work fine, then I will update my guide and my scripts.
Great, I’ll wait!
Did you use the source from previous reply? Below on the help & info page you have source and link which source you are using. Can you give me this info? I have problem with my sdcard, everything I change, returns back to previous state (little funny, I tried to format it like 10 times, got errors, but there wasn’t any change ), today I will buy new and try with other source in nexts days.
I tried 3 or 5 times with repo GitHub - SiCKRAGE/SiCKRAGE: Mirror of OFFICIAL SiCKRAGE and with no success. Sickrage doesn’t start and I don’t know why. I will have version from my guide, because it’s now updated and working fine. For now I didn’t have any problems with it
Hello @nenad,
Thanks for these scripts, makes it much easier!
I used to have a raspi 1 and used it as a media center with OSMC, sickrage couchpotato and transmission
It had a lot of problems of permissions and I was always in the terminal doing some annoying chmod 777
It feels like with your scripts I won’t have to do this it’s very exciting!
I just got a new raspi 3 and I’m setting it up.
Do you have any advice on how to setup transmission? I remember that it had a lot of settings that I had to play with.
Thanks in advance
Jean
Install it from the app store, that’s it for me!
Hi Martin,
thanks for your reply.
I have installed it from the app store but I’ve encountered some permission problems already.
The first torrent I downloaded couldn’t be post-processed by sickrage…
How do you use it?
Check the permissions on the download folder, make sure the owner and group have correct permissions:
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la YOUR-DOWNLOAD-FOLDER
total 8
drwxrwxrwx 2 osmc osmc 4096 Sep 17 05:34 .
drwxrwxrwx 5 osmc osmc 4096 Sep 3 20:46 ..
Then check the the tv shows directory:
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la YOUR-TV-SHOW-FOLDER
total 84
drwxrwxr-x 21 osmc osmc 4096 Aug 19 02:05 .
drwxrwxr-x 3 osmc osmc 4096 Aug 25 10:42 ..
drwxrwxr-x 2 osmc osmc 4096 Jul 19 21:56 Random TV Show
Then finally you need to make sure the group owner of the folders (should be osmc as in my instance) has the user sickrage within it:
osmc@osmc:~$ cat /etc/group | grep sickrage
osmc:x:1000:sickrage
sickrage:x:1002:osmc
If the output for each command doesn’t look similar to mine you may need to change permissions / owners on the 2 directories or add the user sickrage to the osmc group.
Thanks for your reply
I’ve got the same thing for the two first one but the third command gives me something different
osmc@osmc:/media/Stockage$ cat /etc/group | grep sickrage
osmc:x:1000:couchpotato,sickrage
sickrage:x:1002:
I’ve tried adding sickrage to osmc group with
sudo usermod -a -G osmc sickrage
but it doesn’t change the output of
osmc@osmc:/media/Stockage$ cat /etc/group | grep sickrage
Am I misreading this?
Can you paste the output of the ls -la?
Should all be working from what you’ve described.
Sure, here you go
I use the incomplete folder for transmission
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la /media/Stockage/torrent-incomplet/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 osmc osmc 4096 Sep 20 03:22 .
drwxrwxrwx 30 777 osmc 4096 Sep 16 17:09 ..
Then when they are finished they are put in
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la /media/Stockage/torrent-sickrage/
total 8
drwxrwxrwx 2 osmc osmc 4096 Sep 20 04:22 .
drwxrwxrwx 30 777 osmc 4096 Sep 16 17:09 ..
And finally Sickrage does the post-processing from torrent-sickrage to place them in my TV Series folder :
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la /media/Stockage/Old/Series/
total 140
drwxrwxrwx 32 osmc osmc 4096 Sep 19 10:13 .

All the folders with the user sickrage have been created during the recent install, all the other folders were the ones left from my previous setup with the Pi 1
and the last command
osmc@osmc:~$ cat /etc/group | grep sickrage
osmc:x:1000:couchpotato,sickrage
sickrage:x:1002:
Do you detect any anomality?
Thanks
Jean
The section in bold indicates the folder transmission downloads to doesn’t have write permissions for the group user, which sickrage is using.
Try:
sudo chmod -R 775 /media/Stockage/torrent-incomplet/
To make things right on the other folders:
sudo chown -R osmc:osmc /media/Stockage/
sudo chown -R osmc:osmc /media/Stockage/torrent-sickrage/
Hi Martin,
Done all that and it all looks good now.
I’m gonna try and download a few episodes and let you know what the outcome is.
Thanks for your time
Jean
Hello Martin,
I’ve managed to download episodes and they have been correctly processed by Sickrage
Thanks a lot for the help
I’m now trying to figure out why my Wifi connection is cutting out…
I’ve read something about power management, have you got any tips?
Jean
