I am not a total nub, had this all working before but then my pi2 started having a hissy fit at me. It would need to be rebooted daily, which isnt what I really wanted. So I decided to do a fresh install of everything.
I have tried to follow multiple online step by step guides, but none have been succesful.
Does anyone know of a guide that works for the RPi2; OSMC, Sabnzbd, Sickbeard, CoachPotato and Samba. Want to be able to access the external harddrive that is connected to the Pi2 from any machine on the network. Use it as my NAS.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
You can use my notes, I didn’t pay attention to missing spaces or “sudo”

I recently did something similar on a RPi2 with a fresh install of OSMC. However my NAS is a WD MyCloud attached my router using cifs. Additionally, I opted for SickRage over SickBeard since it also handles torrents.
Because the init.d doesn’t work for me with SickRage or CouchPotato, I thought I would provide my notes; although they are pretty much the same otherwise.
#Update OSMC
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
#Mount cifs drive to “WDmyCloud”
sudo nano /etc/fstab
add: “//WDMyCloud/Public/ /mnt/WDmyCloud cifs nobrl,user=guest,pass=,uid=1000,x-systemd.automount 0 0”
Exit and save
sudo mkdir /mnt/WDmyCloud
sudo mount -a
#SabNzdb, UnRAR & par2

sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus
sabnzbdplus --server 0.0.0.0 -d
go to http://osmc:8080/wizard/ and configure
sudo nano /etc/default/sabnzbdplus
Change “USER=” to “USER=osmc”
Exit and Save
#SickRage

go to http://osmc:8081 and configure
sudo cp /opt/sickrage/runscripts/init.systemd /etc/systemd/system/sickrage.service
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/sickrage.service
Remove “/usr/bin/python2.7” from ExecStart and add the following below:

Change user & group to osmc
Exit and save
sudo systemctl enable sickrage.service

Hi @nread2
Could you please explain why you removed the reference to Python 2.7 for SickRage
Remove “/usr/bin/python2.7” from ExecStart and add following below:
TimeoutStopSec=5s
and
Replace “var/lib” with “opt” from ExecStart
for Couchpotato
I have both installed and running without the above modifications and wanted to know if these are optimisations that I could use?
Thanks in advance
@thecrater,
I don’t know why you can remove the reference to Python2.7 when calling SR in this version of Debian but that is what works for me.
The change in path for the CP auto-start script is so that it points to the place where CP is installed, i.e. /opt.
The timeout is to resolve the infinite stop-task bug you sometime get when rebooting the PI.
So as long as your setup is working, only adding the “TimeoutStopSec=5s” below the ExecStart line in the SR. startup script would be considered an optimisation.
