Could not find a part of the path

Help & Support
1

Upgraded to v2 of the script and since then I haven’t been able to get a large number of episodes to transfer from my working directory into my Media system.

It appears that any path with a space in it, or other special character (such as a comma) is giving the error.

Below is a part of my error log. NzbDrone Ver. 2.0.0.70

Does: T:\Television\Daily Show with Jon Stewart, The\Season 18 actually exist on disk?

Folders with spaces work (virtually every folder I have contains a space), I just tested with a comma and it the file sorted without issue.

Is T:\ a mapped network drive and are you running as a service?

3

T:\ is a mapped drive, the directory exists.
It is running as a Service, and I tried with out a service.
Also the service is running as the user with the mapped drive.

Mapped network drives with a service really don’t work very well, some people are able to get it going after changing the user, but that doesn’t always work either.

When you first added the show I assume you weren’t running it as a service, or you added the series path directly, but in either case running it as your user (not as a service) should have corrected that issue. The other option is to use a UNC path (\\servername\share) instead of the mapped drive.

It worked in the old release, and up to the bugged release of v2

6

testing out “startup” method instead

Another small bug
if you put in http:// as your host, it gives errors in the logs that http://http:// couldn’t be found. May be a good client check thing to fix.

7

okay moving it to a Startup item works.

Putting that where?
