A backup will not restore to one system:
Four days ago I installed Garuda on a secondary drive on my machine and tweaked it and install all mt software including Sonarr, Radarr, and Jackett. I went into my other OS and did a backup of both Sonarr and Radarr, then booted back into Garuda and used restore on both programs without issue. I then setup Jackett and then in both Sonarr and Radarr edited my indexers with the new API key. Both are working perfectly. Since it was so easy to backup and restore the programs I though I would just use my backups on another machine where all three programs are installed but not setup yet, but when I tried to use the Sonarr backup it would not take. I attempted a second time and got the same results. Both machines are running the same version of all three programs and the mount points on both machines are the same. By rights all I should of had to do on the second machine was setup Jacket and then go into the indexers in Sonarr and change the API key along with changing the root folder. Is there a reason why I couldn’t simply use the backup from the one machine on the other? Thanks
it would not take
Well that sucks… you should fix whatever is broken.
I’ve put as much effort into my answer as you have in to describing your problem.
Logs?
Error message?
Details?
The is nothing wrong with my explanation.
Now that said I didn’t include the logs cause I wasn’t sure that they would be of any help. The reason I say this is that all 3 programs on the other machine have only been installed, enabled, and started, and nothing else done to them except to make sure they were running. The only thing I didn’t do was after attempting the restore was manually stopping and restarting sonarr’s service on that machine. On this system after I did the restore I had to manually restart the service and all my settings from my other install showed up without issue. I’ll put that machine on debug logging in the morning and attempt the restore again. Then I’ll do a manual stop and start of the service. If it still doesn’t load the backed up settings I’ll post the debug logs.
OK had more time to look at his setup and looks like he has something blocking various elements in his browser. I attempted the Sonarr restore again and this time sonnar took all of my settings except for half of my indexers and didn’t list amy of my shows. I went to launch Jackett to add the indexers spo I could add the missing ones to Sonarr and fix the ones that were added and jackett would not load. I cannot find anything wrong with Jackett so I’m assuming at this point he did something with the browser. Betting if I reinstalkl the OS and redo everything including Sonarr, Radarr, and Jackett that the problems will be gone. As I stated above when I rebuilt this I ran into no issues what so ever.
your replies are walls of text and that frankly have no actual substance out of them
all I can gather from your posts
- Setup Garuda on a 2nd drive (“Machine B”)
- Setup Radarr/Sonarr/Jackett on Machine B
- Exported backups from Machine A
- Attempted to import backups to Machine B
- Backups did not restore properly. You refuse to provide ANY information, a coherent response, or logs at all.
- Possible issue with Browser blocking the restore?
- Browser has unknown modifications
- A third party is involved in this?
Sounds like you don’t want nor need any help and will figure it out on your own.
Good Luck; Have Fun
Again NOTHING wrong with my fist or subsequent post. All you needed to do after my last post was say “great looks like you have a handle on it”, or something similar. Sounds like from your responses to me in this thread and your responses to other members in their threads you don’tr want to help. At least I went in and at least tried a few things to see if something else might be causing the issue. At minimum you could of actually made helpful suggestion on thing to try to figure out if it was Sonarr, the browser, or the OS.
I asked for more information repeatedly. You refused to give ANY information.
Fun fact: users who actually comply with requests for information and take actions requested not only solve their problem faster, but also end up much happier.
On the other hand: users like yourself who refuse to provide any information, refuse to take actions requested, and generally think they know best…tend to end up very frustrated and typically don’t resolve the issue.
My conclusion is it is probably user error caused by not knowing what you’re doing…based on all the information provided.
Edit:
To your helpful suggestions comment
Since you won’t provide any information requested…there are no helpful suggestions to suggest.
If you know a crystal ball repair shop, well mine has been busted for awhile.
Fun fact you didn’t ask for more information
So now you’re slandering me?
See below: I asked for logs, any error message, and generally more details. You never provided anything about the issues encountered with restoring.

I then summarized what you posted to try to understand the issue, but again you continued to not provide any information.
Maybe you should try netflix if reading basic instructions and providing information requested to help you troubleshoot is too complicated.
