Hi,
I just installed NZBDrone on my mac, and in testing, drone is successful in getting SAB to download an episode, but Drone fails to move the file to the correct location afterwards. I have read a bunch of threads where something similar was discussed, but never could find a fix.
Here is my configuration:
I have SAB downloading tv shows to: /Volumes/Media/Downloads/Complete
I have turned OFF tv sorting in SAB config.
When SAB finishes downloading, it places the tv show in its own folder; for instance, /Volumes/Media/Downloads/Complete/Vikings/Vikings.S02E02.mkv
In Drone, my Drone Factory is set to the same as above: /Volumes/Media/Downloads/Complete
My sorted tv shows are on a different computer in a separate part of the house. Drone knows about that location because I pointed it to that location when I was adding series for the first time. Sickbeard was able to move completed downloads across the network and into the correct tv show folder, but I can’t seem to get Drone to do the same thing.
Is there a setting I’m missing?
Thanks!
What is the path to your sorted TV folder on the other computer (as you’d need it on your Mac running NzbDrone)?
Only just switched over to this myself so take my comment with a grain of salt (though I’m also on Mac and it appears to be working fine).
With this:
“When SAB finishes downloading, it places the tv show in its own folder; for instance, /Volumes/Media/Downloads/Complete/Vikings/Vikings.S02E02.mkv”
I wonder if the Subdirectly “Vikings” is the issue there. I assume you have Sab creating that. What it should be doing (or at least what mine does) is putting the original downloaded folder in your Complete directory. So it should look like:
/Volumes/Media/Downloads/Complete/Vikings.S02E02.720p.HDTV.Group/Vikings.S02E02.720p.HDTV.Group.mkv
Maybe try looking in Sab to see if you have any renaming options enabled, and disable them. Essentially you just want the raw, original NZB contents placing in your Complete directory.
@simonk83 is correct, you do want the release name to be used for the folder, but that shouldn’t cause it not to move (though will cause other issues).
Enable trace logging https://github.com/NzbDrone/NzbDrone/wiki/Log-Files and post you logs to paste bin after letting it run for a few minutes (drone factory is scanned every minute by default).
