Debug logs: Paths Permission issues on macOS for ApplicationUpdate · GitHub
Description of issue:
I have run into Permissions issues for ApplicationUpdate & manual Backup
The error messages seems to show Sonarr is using “Randomized” Paths on macOS for backups and updates.
I have gone into macOS system settings UI and given Sonarr “Full Disk Permissions” under Privacy & Security, but the problem persists.
I have also tried giving Read & Write access to all users at various folder levels and tried applying them to all items underneath, but I could only go from the “T” folder down, and anything higher up would not allow me.
I am just trying to understand why Sonarr is trying to backup and update into these randomized folders? And is there a way to change it?
I also poked into the folder here: ~/.config/Sonarr and seems like backups are being placed here successfully as part of an attempted update, but the update itself fails.
Here are a couple of error messages from Sonarr events:
Error occurred while executing task ApplicationUpdate: Access to the path ‘/var/folders/7s/v9cs2fkj639d6p5w4x6bh93w0000gn/T/sonarr_backup/config.xml’ is denied.
