Path is already configured as a root folder error

Help & Support

Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.4374
OS: Windows Server 2016
Description of issue:

Hi, recently I’ve moved Sonarr to my server PC and all my paths changed. I used this https://github.com/Sonarr/Sonarr/wiki/Health-Checks#series-folders to change my root folder to D:\ and all TV shows have been found and everything seems to be working but I’m getting a warning ‘Missing root folder: G:\Sonarr’ because apparently even though my root directory is now D:\ all my series are still configured to G:\Sonarr.
I’ve tried editing series manually to change it to D:\ but I’m getting ‘Path is already configured as a root folder’.
Is there something I can do except removing all series and adding them again?

You don’t change the series path to point to the root folder, it still needs to contain the series folder in the path. Using Series Editor is the easiest way to update the root folder and maintain the series folder name without manually editing everything or starting from scratch.

Ok I just realised I’m an idiot… obviously it should be D:\series_name in the series editor not just D:.

When editing a single series, yes. When using series editor (batch editing) you’d select the new root folder.

It’s all good now thanks :slight_smile:
