404 OMG Error after Series Add from Android

Help & Support
1

Drone service installed on my desktop. Login on Android from Chrome (WAN side). I can see all the Series, everything looks fine. I Add a Series. Series seems to be added, comes up OK on Android, but when I try to open the series back on the desktop I get OMG 404 error page. On the desktop I Update Library, no change. Restart the Drone, no change.

Here are the log entries after adding. (Local path was not actually created)

What does the url in your browser say when you get the 404?

3

http://localhost:8989/series/cold-case

4

On the Android the URL is {my ip}:8989/series/cold-case.

Working now on the server. So something happened in the last hour that fixed it up.

I’m able to reproduce this behavior consistently.
The Series pulls up initially on Android, 404 on Server. Later resolves on Server.

Looks like its a cached page issue on the server. Even after restarting the server it retrieved the same 404 page, but a forced page refresh ^R fixed it and brought up the correct page.

It will only create the folder if you have create empty series folders enabled in the settings or when it imports something.

When a series is added it doesn’t matter where it was added from, its available everywhere. The list of series is stored in the browser when the UI is first loaded, the forced refresh would get it to reload that list from the server.

Was the series showing in the UI?
Which browser were you using?

Everything looks fine on the Android when I add a series (using Chrome), but over on the server (also Chrome), the new series pops up ok but when I try to open it I get 404, until I force a refresh on the series page. Probably if I closed the server completely it would refresh when I reopened, but strangely it didn’t refresh after I did a server restart, still got the 404.

I tried adding from Android while the server was on the Settings page, then went to the Series page and same thing.
