Series folder is not created when adding series

Hi

Im running sonarr 2.0.0.2572 on debian wheezy. I have a separate hardrive for series. This harddrive has read/write access for all users (chmod -R 777). However when i try to add a new serie to sonarr no root series folder is created.

For example:

MetadataService Series folder does not exist, skipping metadata creation 14:16 MediaCoverService Downloading Fanart for [75760][How I Met Your Mother] http://thetvdb.com/banners/fanart/original/75760-59.jpg 14:16 MediaCoverService Downloading Poster for [75760][How I Met Your Mother] http://thetvdb.com/banners/posters/75760-42.jpg 14:16 MediaCoverService Downloading Banner for [75760][How I Met Your Mother] http://thetvdb.com/banners/graphical/75760-g2.jpg 14:16 DiskScanService Scanning disk for How I Met Your Mother 14:16 RefreshEpisodeService Finished episode refresh for series: [75760][How I Met Your Mother]. 14:16 RefreshEpisodeService Starting episode info refresh for: [75760][How I Met Your Mother] 14:16 RefreshSeriesService Updating Info for How I Met Your Mother 14:16 SeriesService Adding Series [75760][How I Met Your Mother] Path: [/media/Series/How I Met Your Mother]

When i check the series folder indeed no root folder is created.

Series folder rights:

ls -l total 24 drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Jan 1 18:25 lost+found drwxrwsrwx+ 25 sonarr users 4096 Jan 2 14:28 Series

When i manually add the folder (mkdir etc) sonarr is able to create season folders. So it only seems to be a problem creating the root serie folder.

Any help is appreciated.

The series folder isn’t created when a series is added, unless you enable “Create Empty Season folders” on Media Management settings (an advanced setting). Sonarr will create it when it goes to import an episode for that series though.

This is done to prevent media centers from adding empty shows until an episode is available.
