Sonarr in Docker: Stuck at Waiting to Import

Sonarr version (4.0.10.2544):
Synology NAS Running Sonarr in docker container:

My brain is frazzled trying to map logical and physical folders between docker containers and the file system on my NAS. I’m running QBittorent and Sonarr in separate docker containers.

Qbittorrent successfully downloads the episode and puts it in the /video/Downloads/completed/sonarr folder, but won’t import it into my video/TV folder. The error in Sonarr says “No files found are eligible for import in /downloads/sonarr/Chicago…” (see attached). Am I missing something with mappings? Because I can’t figure this out (I’ll recheck permissions) I have attached my NAS file structure, and the container volume mappings to see if I’ve confused something.

Error in Sonarr:

Any help would be much appreciated.

Could be permissions, but I’d start with fixing your mounts, see here: Docker - TRaSH Guides

On your advice I scoured through the Trash Guides. Consequently I have revamped my NAS folder structure to have everything in /data (i.e. /data/media, /data/torrents). I don’t use usenet. See below:

I have adjusted the mappings in the two docker containers to what I think the Trash Guides recommend. Note there is no guide on qbittorrent container volume mapping, so I’ve guessed.

sonarr container volume mapping:

I’d like to confirm that I have the mappings correct. Something still isn’t quite right because I have a new error in sonarr that says “Unable to Import Automatically”. In sonarr settings I set the root folder to /data/media/tv.

Based on the guides I think I’m almost there, just need a bit of advice on where I am going wrong.

It seems that I have fixed it.
I changed the qbittorrent container’s volume to /data/torrents:/data/torrents. This way I don’t have qbittorent with access to the entire /data directory (unnecessarily - based on the principle of least privilage). Within the qbittorent application settings, the default save path is set to /data/torrents. Sonnar seems to find this just fine and import the completed download into /data/media/tv.
