Indexer and downloader not working

This is a new install of Sonarr onto a Windows Server 2012r2.
I have SAB and sickbeard running fine.
I installed Sonarr and added sickbeard and womble as indexers
I then added SAB as my downloader and entered my api key
when I add an existing series it scans my NAS (files live here) and adds in the episodes that I already have.

If I click search on a missing episode (say one that aired 10 days ago) noting happens and in the logs I get 'Searching 0 indexers for [show name s01e03]
I also get 'Import failed, path does not exist or is not accessible by Sonarr: c:_tmp\show name
the _tmp directory is used by SAB for completed downloads - I never configured any path to that location (maybe its gets that info from the api key?)

so basically it seems that even though my indexer and downloader test ok - I cant download anything

Can someone please advise where I went wrong?

Also, I have manual post-processing capability in sickbeard - to make it bring in SAB downloads manually - for example - if I want to watch an episode immediately after it is downloaded - does that exist in Sonarr?

lastly here are some error logs:

Womble doesn’t do manual searches (RSS only), and the sickbeard indexer is down right now.

ok thanks for the info.
Does Sonarr manual post process files like sickbeard? meaning when a show episode is downloaded does sonarr copy it from the temp folder that sab uses for completed downloads into my nas where i keep all my shows? if so how is that set up?

Yes, Sonarr will talk to your download client and automatically move completed items (and copy/hardlink seeding torrents). If Sonarr and your download client are on different machines you need to do a bit more setup, otherwise it should be seamless.

I have it all working now. Thank you :wink:
