Deluge downloads new episode, transfers to new directory, but doesn't remove from activity log

Help & Support
1

Hi all. So here is my setup:

I use Deluge to download all of my episodes. It adds them to a label called TV. It downloads them. Then it successfully hard links the file from the torrent to its spot in my TV Shows directory, then notifies Plex to update. Here is the problem. It never actually REMOVES itself from the Activity log. I have to go and hit the X each time to clear it from the activity log. If I go to the calendar, it says the show is 100% downloading, but it’s clearly done and post processed. It says it already exists, but it couldn’t have, because it just did the transferring literally 10 minutes beforehand. Any idea?

Here is a log: http://pastebin.com/pV7iZ0fg

and here is an example of what happens when the torrent downloads but doesn’t clear itself from the activity log

I’ve left each torrent in the activity log for a day, but the problem is that it keeps trying to re-import the file, but it says it already exists. So it will do this non stop until I clear it from the activity log. Also, keep in mind that I want to seed these files for a long time.

I am having the same issue, but I use transmission. I hope we find a solution.

If Sonarr doesn’t import the file it will treat it as still downloading. If you let Sonarr move the file (and Hardlink it) then it can notify Plex AND will remove it from its own activity. When the Torrent stops seeding (Paused or stopped) and Remove Completed Downloads is enabled in Sonarr’s settings it will remove it from your torrent client.

Here’s the thing though, markus. Sonarr is importing the file. I don’t have any post processing scripts or anything. Literally, it’s like this -> Add show. Show time comes by, searches indexer -> sends to deluge -> deluge hardlinks it, hard links to TV Show directory, and still seeds.

Will it always stay in the activity log if it’s still seeding? I want to seed these for months/years… I’m worried it will just keep trying to import that file every minute until eternity (or i move it from the activity log, manually)

Sonarr isn’t importing it from the download client (and hardlinking it), its just seeing a file show up in the series folder and adding it to its database (two separate things), if you let Sonarr import it (instead of Deluge hard linking/moving it), then this isn’t going to be an issue.

No, it will keep tracking it, but not show it in Activity.

I’m not sure I understand. What am I doing wrong? How is the file showing up in the TV Shows directory unless Sonarr is importing it?

Okay, lets just clarify this all with some debug logs showing the import process, because as you’ve described it, Deluge is hardlinking the files.

Here you go bud: I appreciate all the help and love the software.

Hi,

so after much discussion with markus101 and Taloth, we have a solution. Well, they do. I just annoyed them with my constant pestering.

The issue here, that Taloth explained to me, was actually a NAS issue. The NAS reported to Sonarr that these files didn’t exist, instead of receiving an access denied error, which is why it wasn’t importing correctly. The hard-link was done succesfully, it just didn’t let Sonarr know, therfore it didn’t import an thus the infinite loop. Taloth pushed an update to the dev branch that worked around this flaw on the NAS, and since he pushed it out, I’ve ran into no issues.

You need to switch to the develop branch, 2.0.0.3015 fixes this issue.

Thanks again for all your help.
