Adding new series cannot be found, 0 results instantly

Sonarr version (exact version): 4.0.14.2939
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): unknown
OS: Debian / Docker
Debug logs: PrivateBin
Description of issue:
I recently migrated my Docker sonarr container from one computer to another. Everything works except finding series that I add new, which instantly return 0 results upon trying.

I am able to find series that were already added before migrating. Both series that have finished airing and series that continued to air since migrating work fine: results are found via my indexer. These results take several seconds to populate which is normal.

For any new series I add, searching interactively instantly shows the message “No results found” and searching automatically instantly shows “Episode search completed. 0 reports downloaded”. This happens for series I do not currently have stored locally, as well as series for which I do have local files.

I have included debug logs but no errors are reported. The logs show that I am able to complete a search for SPY x FAMILY which I already had added before migrating, and no results are found for Sword Art Online, which I’ve just added new as a test.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

Sounds like no indexers are available to handle those searches, this could happen for a number of reasons:

  • None available with Interactive Search enabled
  • All disabled due to errors/rate limiting
  • Anime series type with no anime categories defined or vice versa

The previous search looks to be successful, and the series type is standard, so which indexer do you have added?
