Sonarr crashes during scan after replacing .bin files

Sonarr version (exact version): 3.0.6.1342
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 6.12.0.122
OS: macOS Monterey 12.01
Debug logs: https://0bin.net/paste/8TEw89Gk#V4YRUzSCzhZ7PwMhww8SjoLiYsODung59Et6iX0GmDg
Description of issue:
Sonarr is crashing after about a minute (sometimes shorter, sometimes longer) of running its auto scan.

I recently did a clean install of macOS Monterey then moved the old Sonarr files from .bin that I had backed up, to the fresh OS. I’ve previously used this method before with zero issues but this time I can’t get Sonarr to run longer than a minute or so.

I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. I’ve also tried different version of Mono with no change in behavior.

I also installed Sonarr without restoring the .config folder files and it appears to run fine. It only fails after I restore my backup files.

Any help is appreciated!

  1. it’s mediainfo crashing on a bad video file causing sonarr to crash.
    looks like it’s one of your video files in Big Sky - likely the first one it tries to scan based on the lack of logging what it scans

  1. since you’re on monterey you’ll also want to check out Keeps shutting down, MacOS 12 Monterey

@bakerboy448 thanks for the reply. I did just delete that series it crashed on then it crashed again sometime after. Any ideas?

Also, is there anything wrong with how I restored my backup?

I’ll check that link…

Logs will give you a hint. If it was mediainfo scanning - then likely another bad video file.
If it just appears random, then it’s likely sqlite - see the link :slight_smile:

Edit: sadly that sqlite i linked will not work on M1 - so ya’ll are probably SOL until sonarr switches to .net5 (or .net6)

sorry for the false hope guys
